Tummy Tuck with MR & Lipo: Will Percocet make me nauseous like Vicodin and Tramadol have?

January 19, 2016
Asked By:Maya Normusgutte in TX

I'm having a full TT with MR and lipo. I am told I will get Percocet for post-op pain. I've never taken Percocet before. I have severe nausea when I take Vicodin or Tramadol (but for some reason not when I take Tussionex?). No problems with IV Morphine. Because of the TT with MR, I am afraid of vomiting. Is Percocet typically well-tolerated by someone like me? Pre-op is on Friday 1/22 and I will be given my prescriptions then, I want to make sure whatever I'm given doesn't make me nauseous.
