The moment I woke up I started dry heaving and throwing up this did not stop till 3am last night, iv read threw alot of the post and topics but would like to hear if this happened to anyone else. I was able to start my 30ml of broths and water and when it hit it feels like glass cutting into me. Thanks in advanced y'all! Oh and I might get to go home in the morning!!!!

I had dry heaves for the first day, but did not experience any pain. After 24 hours the heaves stopped.

Talk to your medical staff to see if they feel this is a cause of worry. Congrats...each day gets better, slowly.

Yes. I had them horribly. It was so bad I was convinced I had caused a leak! I didn't. I really think it was one of the meds I was on in the first 24 hours in the hospital. They gave me one of those behind the ear patches and I started feeling soo much better. hang in there. It doesn't last forever.

Thanks all, I have better pc of mind hearing it does go away, iv never been in that much pain, they gave me 2 dif meds and a patch before I could even lay back, but I feel sooooo much better since in off the drip, I think you might be right ab the meds making you sick bc I feel so much better

I was dry heaving from the moment I started coming to from the anesthesia. It lasted for a few days. They kept giving me nausea medication.

I am a nurse so I requested Zofran and the patch before I went into the OR. Had no nausea or vomiting (thank goodness). You can take Zofran by mouth but anyway you take it, it is terribly constipating, so be careful!
