Did anyone else have severe nausea from the pre surgery liquid diet? My stomach isn't handling it well at all today.

    I'm having nausea as well. My daughter-in-law(she is an RN) recommended I take Dramamine which does work, but it makes you sleepy. I was really having a time of it about an hour ago and I went to the break room at work and drank 1/2 cup of unsweetened almond milk. That has seemed to help as well. Good Luck!!!

    I had TERRIBLE nausea. Turns out I was reacting to the protein shakes. Once I quit drinking those, I was fine, but it was tough getting my protein in immediately after surgery. I had to use a lot of thinned out yogurt with supermilk in order to get enough grams in each day. Also, sugar free popsicles are your best friend for nausea - they helped get me rehydrated enough to be functional after throwing up for 3 days.
