    Nausea

    I just had my surgery on 9/7/10. I been having difficulty eating the purees and drinking my protein shake, to the point of completely stopping from drinking the shakes and attempting to make a meal. I've been drinking liquids enough. Recently (as in a couple of days ago), I began to get nauseous whenever I take my chewable vitamin and eating SOMETHING. Now I get nauseous all day long without eating anything and I have a heartburn like sensation at the top of my throat. My post-op appointment is in 2 weeks and I thought I'd ask here before calling my surgeon for some advice. Is it because I'm not eating that I'm getting nauseous?

    Nausea

    SO after fighting this Nausea, vomiting and heartburn, I called my doctor. He prescribed me pills for nausea and told me to take some over the counter heartburn meds. So, I've been taking Pepcid. I also have been having what others call "slime" or "foam". I've been confused because others are saying they get it when they eat too much or too fast. For me it just comes on for no reason. I don't eat and am dehydrated. I was just hospitalized on Wednesday for dehydration and to see what was going on. I was on an IV drip and was given a whole bunch of unknown meds. Felt good while i was in the hospital besides the spit. Now that I'm home, I'm back to where I was, throwing up and the nausea and ridiculous heartburn. I'm taking everything he's told me, I' back on liquids and trying to keep as hydrated as I can while throwing up, but nothing seems to help. Now i'm feeling really dizzying and faint and am shaking again. I'm very desperate to get better, I feel like I'm doing something wrong but I don't know what. Does anyone have any advice? I've talked to my surgeon but he doesn't seem to know what's going on.

    What does "slimes" mean?

    I currently have had this for weeks now. I haven't eaten anything since my nausea had started, so does it just go away on its own and if so when? if it doesn't, what do I have to do to make it go away?
