Help...just threw up :(

[Beckyyb93 225]

So, I had surgery on December 19th and have had some complications, I had a stricture and they had to go back in a couple weeks ago to dilate the opening to my stomach. I haven't been able to eat much solid food because there is still too much pain. I just threw up and am now in extreme pain. I'm debating whether or not to call the doctor or to go to the emergency room or to just try to deal with the pain. It hurts so so much, I already took pain medicine and it's not helping at all. What should I do?

I would go to the ER if its that bad.

call whomever is on call for your surgeon. They can tell you if you ought to go to the ED.

I would go to the ER. They can check you over and give you pain medicine to make you comfortable. I'm sorry you are having such a rough time. Please keep us posted.

ER

I ended up going to the ER. They did an X-Ray and gave me pain medicine. I got home at about 4 am and my doctor called me at 9 and asked me to come back in so he could talk to me. He thinks I'm having esophageal spasms when I eat and prescribed me a new medication and gave me more pain medicine. I have an appointment in a week and if it's not better he wants to go back in and check it out. Thanks for all the advice, I didn't know if I was over reacting or if I should actually go to the hospital. I'm really glad I did though, they made the pain go away enough so I could get some sleep.< /p>
