Have you discussed this with your surgeon? Some of the main reasons/causes of nausea are eating too fast, eating too much, and not chewing thoroughly. Do you do any of those? Also are you taking any meds that may cause nausea? Are you lactose intolerant --- that can cause nausea? Hope you find the reason and a solution soon. Definitely talk to your doctor.

I still find that during those times when my body goes back into ketosis, I tend to get a little nauseaous from the ketones. Also, even at 14 months out, some medications (particularly antibiotics) severely aggitate my stomach. Lastly, I'm gradually realizing that my stomach just isn't as resilient as the old one was and that small stomach upsets tend to last for several hours. Fortunately, I've found that using a little Pepto Bismol (I actually use the generic version from Costco) works wonders (and it is sugar-free unlike many anti-nausea medications). Good luck.

Do you still have your gallbladder? A bad GB will cause nausea. I was almost a year out when mine went south. Check with your doctor and get to the bottom of it. Hope you feel better soon. ~Sidney~ Open RNY 10-23-02 down 130+
