I had a major cold before surgery, and every time I had to blow my nose or anything like that I felt like I was going to be sick. Well it has been ongoing ever since that cold I had, except it's worse now. I blow my nose, sneeze, cough, talk too much, and I feel like I am going to be sick. Is this because of acid reflux? I am worried because I can't even take my prilosec pill that was prescribed to me by the surgeon, I try to swallow it and it comes right back up. I can't get a hold of the surgeon today, so I have to wait until tomorrow, but I have felt nauseous all day today at work. It was my first day back and I got sent home early because I was basically worthless. I can't keep doing this. I had surgery two weeks ago tomorrow (May 1st). Anyone else had this problem?

you can look up your medication online and see if the med can be crushed...or call the pharmacy and ask them. if you can crush...then add a little to some applesause and try it that way to get rid of the acid. I have had some problems with my gag reflex still....but not so bad that I am upset about it. ususally mine happens when I have eaten to much, or if I havent eaten in to long. hope you feel better! good luck!
