Hello. I’m 11 days post-op and am suffering from nausea. I’m taking one anti-inflammatory pill a day.  Has anyone experienced this?

    Hello Mary

    I'm 14 wks tvh but I didn't suffer with any nausea.

    I won't take any painkillers only 2 paracetamol the day of op then I had nothing..

    May be you hAve a sensitive tummy or perhaps take them with food.

    If it continues try taking paracetamol may be?

    Don't worry hun it will be fine.xx

    Yes, it’s horrible. I ate crackers and had clear soda. I also ate string cheese and crackers. Stay strong

      Took me 3 weeks, but everyone is different. I also had peppermint mints handy. Stay strong .

    Yes, I had nausea especially in the morning and I didn't take any medication after the first 3 or 4 days. What helped me was an essential oil called digize. I sniffed it and rubbed directly on my stomach. Any peppermint oil may be helpful. Hang in there. It's taken me 8 weeks but I am finally feeling like I'm pretty much back to normal.

    Hi Mary, I had a ovary removed about 6 weeks ago (due for a full hysterectomy next week) I was also feeling really nauseous after surgery, prob from day 7 until about 3 weeks after surgery.. my consultant told me it can sometimes be the anaesthetic still leaving you system but it does eventually go away- I got anti nausea tablets and they helped lots- hope you feel better soon!
