I'm at home, sleeved yesterday, so much pain and nausea. I'm slowly sipping water but I keep getting painful hiccups. Please tell me this will pass quickly.

Oh and they have me Prilosec but I'm scared to swallow a pill that size right now.

Did they give you a patch to put behind your ear for the nausea? I think you went home to early just gets lots of rest it will pass.

I know its hard when you have the nausea, I've been battling it myself. Can you get an rx called in by your doc for the anti nausea drug Zofran? It works quickly & comes as a dissolvable little pill. As far as the Prilosec goes I was told to look for capsules that you can open and sprinkle in a drink. Good luck, keep drinking & walking.

Thanks, yes I got Zofran and didn't think about opening up the prilosec. Good tips.

Oh and they have me Prilosec but I'm scared to swallow a pill that size right now.

with prilosec you are surposed to open the capsule pour it in Water or on your tongue and then drink water. That is how my doctor and pharmacist told me to take them.

I had the same thing went to the ER Doctors order got IV they gave me meds through IV lf you are sick to your stomach or in pain it takes longer to feel better and heal. Call your Doctor and make them help you

I was given dissolvable Prevacid. I was in the hospital for 2 nights and they have me anti nausea meds in the hospital. It was gone by the time I was ready to go home. Keep a pillow handy!! When you have to cough or hiccup or sneeze, squeeze the pillow against your stomach!! It helped sooooo much!!!! Good luck with your recovery and lifelong journey!!! I'm 3 1/2 weeks out and it gets better and easier!!!
