@womenfly Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect.

It looks like you've already connected with members that are answering your questions and offering support.

May I ask if your provider offered you an anti-nausea patch? I'm not sure this is appropriate for you but they have patched you stick behind your ear sometimes when pain medications induce nausea.

I had a scopolamine patch in the hospital and it worked great. However, they removed it before I was discharged. I am now past the point of needing the Oxycodone so my stomach is fine. I go to see my doc on 3/3 and I think I’ll discuss this with him. The burning seems to be slowly subsiding but I will mention that too. No reason we can’t suggest things to our surgeons. I’m a big believer of self advocacy.
