i was feeling fine 3 days after my surgery now im a week past now and i have to lay down all the time i feel sick and nauseous i take something for nausea but its not working and im not on pain meds to make me sick ive been to the er they tested me for every thing and it was all normal. could i still be having side affects to anaesthetic i was out for 4 hours.
Since my breast reduction 6 days ago Ive had ups and downs. Some really bad pain and some days where I felt totally normal. Today on the 6th day I actually feel the worst Ive felt in a week. Its the lower of the lows since Ive had surgery. My wounds are pulling, Im nauseous, Im lightheaded, and Im severely anxious and depressed. I feel like my eyes cant focus and very hopeless. I have a post op appt. today.
On April 29 (3 weeks post op), I woke up feeling nauseous and immediately had to make a bowel movement (twice). My breasts felt fine but, I noticed a smell that was not there. Throughout the day I was freezing but apparently the house was warm, and still nauseous with stomach pain. I waited to see if I would be fine, but the next day there is still an odor and later on I began to feel nauseous again with a headache. I also started my menstrual cycle so I dont know if it is because of that.
I am anemic. I have sharp pains in both breasts. Stitches feel tight. I take Tylenol for pain (About 1 per day now) and ibuprofen (1-3) daily for swelling. I am 2 weeks post op bilateral breast reduction.
No wound issues. My problem is that I have been taking 600 mg ibuprofen every 6 hours. I have not taken a single narcotic since the surgery. If my ibuprofen wears off, I feel horrible! My breasts are more swollen/tender and I ache all over my upper body. I also feel fatigued and mildly nauseated. No fever Is this normal at one week post op? I'm concerned that maybe I am anemic from the procedure. My hemoglobin was 12.9 pre-op and was not tested afterwards. I had 5.25 pounds removed.
My doctor has asked me if I have a preference for the type of pain medication to take after my breast reduction surgery. I've never had any type of surgery and I've never taken any type of narcotics. I do have a very weak stomach and tend to get nauseous easily. Any recommendations for types of medications for me to take to relieve the pain that won't make me ill/totally out of it? I will have help for about two weeks but I do have children.
i am getting a breast reduction tomorrow morning and i suffer from severe general anxiety and get really severe nausea in situations like this. So i just had to take a xanax so i wouldn't have a panic attack. So what I'm asking is it safe for me to take a xanax at like 6am tomorrow if my surgery is at like 8? Would it affect me going under?
I was trying to do a 12 hour fast with no food or water. I noticed a lot of stomach pain from this. I was curious if it's safe to use Tums or lifesavers before surgery to help with stomach pain and nausea since a lot of people feel sick when they don't eat. My surgery is scheduled in a few weeks.
