You need nutrition and supplementation if you can't eat enough.Key
factors in the healing of any wound are nutrition and vitamin supplements.
There are specially formulated vitamins that are designed to optimize
your healing that we use from Vitamedica. In addition, we use Arnica and
Bromelian to reduce the swelling and bruising. Before and after surgery,
nutrition is a key component that is overlooked by almost every patient and
surgeon. After the operation, your calorie and protein requirements are
increased. We design a nutritional regimen for each patient which is
provided to them during the preoperative teaching. In order to meet the
calorie and protein requirements after surgery, the patients typically
supplement using protein shakes. Calorie and protein intake are recorded
on a log that we provide and review at the postoperative visits. The
combination of homeopathic medicines, vitamins supplementation, and adequate
calorie and protein intake are critical to the wound healing process.
Prior to surgery, we ask the patients to stop all of their own
supplements as some can cause problems with bleeding during and after surgery.

It is hard to tell if the internal issues that you are feeling are in fact a result of your plastic surgery. If you are still feeling this way, I would only recommend to see your surgeon in person ASAP and complete any evaluation possible to see if those issues are a result of your surgery. Best of luck to you.

Hello good afternoon, it is normal to experience heart burn, or an upset stomach due to antibiotic and medication intake, your intestinal flora is affected while consuming your medication, take omeprazole on an empty stomach and of course your probiotics.

Congratulations on your surgery!  These symptoms are not uncommon after a tummy tuck.  They tend to settle down and go away as time passes.  You can take over the counter remedies to help with the discomfort.  Be aware too that narcotic pain medicine can also contribute to some constipation, which also can be treated with diet changes and over the counter medications.  You will get there- keep your chin up!

The nausea you are experiencing may be coming from your pain medication. Narcotics are usually the culprit. If you can wean yourself off these meds to Tylenol, you may feel better. Take an over the counter medication for your indigestion but if it does not resolve, consult your surgeon.

Yes this will pass. It is still early on your recovery. Part of the upset stomach can be from the anesthetic and the pain pills. The heart burn is not uncommon because during a tummy tuck the muscles are tightened and this pushes the abdominal contents( bowels and internal organs up against the diaphragm causing some acid reflux. Sometimes if the patient has some difficulty with bladder control this can be aggravated early on as well. Avoid acidic foods. Eat small amounts more often and use something like an antacid combined with pepcid (over the counter from a drug store)

This is very normal following a tummy tuck procedure to have increased nausea and heartburn.  Since the abdominal muscles are tightened it can put pressure on the abdomen which can push up on the stomach leading to heartburn.  Additionally the anesthetics used and pain medications that you are probably taking can cause nausea as well.  You are very early in the recovery process and just give it time and it should get better.  Often using an over the counter heartburn remedy such as Tums has been shown to help the heartburn following this procedure.  If these remedies do not help, talk to your surgeon about prescribing you a medication for heartburn/ nausea.  Be sure to follow your spacific doctors recomendations.
