Heading back to ER again, prayers please

Been so sick 3 weeks post op. Can't get fluids down. Woken up vomiting bile, brown mucus and blood thus morning. Vomited yesterday too but not blood. I just want them to find out what's wrong with me. Was sleeved nov 6th. Was doing OK a week or 2 out and started getting sick 6 days ago. Went to ER this past Monday. But they have me some fluids and a cat scan and blood work and didn't find anything except some esophageal swelling. They should have done an EGD. Going to an different ER. Been on straight gatorade for 4 days and getting worse. I should have went in yesterday but didn't want to ruin thanksgiving. Appreciate the prayers. I just want to get well.

Sorry folks. Was back in hospital a week. Just got out again. They inserted an NG tube so I am being tube fed 24/7. Guess from my nose to my small bowel. They are hoping it wakes things up. I am finally able to tolerate some liquids in my own. If all goes well, they may pull tube in a couple weeks and I will be on my own and hopefully sustaining myself. We shall see. Been living this nightmare for 2 months now. 4 hospital stays 5 ER trips, 1 ambulance trip. Ugh

Very glad to hear from you. Praying this works! Way to stay strong.

My family keeps you in its prayers.

Glad you are home and are getting some nourishment and hydration. I will continue to keep you in my prayers.

So glad to hear from you we were getting so worried about you I hope you are finally on the way to a resolution to these issues have they figured out the problem yet? Thinking of you and praying all goes well and moves in the right direction for you
