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.

NPR, well, as I figure, it's about time you caught a break. So i, like everyone else who cares about you on this post wish you only the best. It's definitely your turn for some easy going.

Be well.

Praying for the best.

Thanks for the update nprcowboy. I will, as many others here keep praying for you. So many complications for one man to go through.

Definitely thinking about you and hoping you start feeling better.

I'm with everyone else on this. You have been through more than enough and it's time you had a break! I'm sending you my most emphatic healing thoughts.

Thanks all. My confidence that this botox will work is shaken as I do not feel as well as last time when I had the tube in. I will keep positive thoughts when they take it out Friday and pray it does work. We shall see.

Praying for you daily. Please keep posting your progress

Just ridiculous. First they have a plan. Now liquids for three weeks then try soft foods again and see if that works. This is nuts. So depressed again. Can't text botox injection that way. I want to be able to eat. Sick of these quacks but even the Mayo clinic sent me back to them. Feeling down and frustrated

I was told not to drink Gatorade. It is on the No list.
