Complications

I'm now 5 weeks post op and have had everything go wrong.

A few weeks post op I started throwing up bile. Long story short - they had to remove my gallbladder and I spent 8 days in the hospital because it didn't help with the throwing up.

I'm currently home because we weren't seeing any progress at the hospital and I'm still throwing up bile multiple times a day. Went to see a GI specialist today and going to try another new medicine.

Can hardly drink anything and I feel so discouraged because I want to drink, but I just throw it up. If anyone has suggestions on drinks - I would really appreciate it!

Trying to eat (dr gave the ok to eat whatever I want) every 2 hours and it's a struggle. I feel very bloated and full but dr says I have to try and eat to bring the bile down instead of up.

Hugs! I am so sorry you are going through this. I hope you feel better soon!

I am sorry you are having such a horrible time. I'm sending you internet hugs. Do your doctors know what is causing the vomiting? Have they given you any kind of prognosis? Please keep us updated.

My dr said that it was my gallbladder. It was working less than 10% so we thought that removing it would help and it hasn't ???? went to a different doctor today and we will see how his medicine works

Good luck
