Do you recall if you took everything for the nausea? I was so week and light headed today, my sister took me to the ER. They said I was dehydrated and gave me two bags of fluids. They told me to eat and drink more. Lol. Guess I’ll call my doc tomorrow and see if I can get anything. Don’t really feel like eating and drinking when you are nauseated.

Before surgery, I did not take anything. After surgery, Mayo nurses used essential oils: peppermint and lavender. And Zofran. But that really dries you out. Not good if you’re already dehydrated. I’m sorry I don’t have more tips for the nausea.

I took Zofran occasionally. Crystallized Ginger helps too.

@annief Although I haven't had the surgery I did suffer for a long time with severe nausea. I was given Cyclizine which worked a treat. Got to say as a male I never really appreciated what women went through when they had morning sickness. I had nausea for a few weeks and felt like my whole world was coming to an end!!! I have the upmost respect for pregnant women with morning sickness.
