2 Days Post Open Severe Nausea



Recommended Posts

That's good news! I know it's apples and oranges, but I had really bad morning sickness for all 9 months of my first pregnancy. If I had nothing in my stomach the vomiting and dry heaves would continue until I ate. But of course I didn't want to eat because I was super nauseous. It was a vicious cycle some days.

I read your posts frequently and I'm hoping this will be a turning point for your daughter.

@@LSF Thanks for checking on her! They started her on IV nutrition last night (TPN.) She'd been vomiting over 20 times a day but so far, for some reason she's actually feeling better today! She is less nauseated and she's not vomited in over 24 hours. She was even able to sip some liquids today. They're baffled why the TPN would help with the nausea. I'm baffled why it took them so long to give them to her! We've been here 15 days, day 16 today.

Yes, the surgery is scheduled for Thursday and we can possibly go home on Friday depending on how she's doing. We can do the TPN IV at home until she is able to start eating on her own.

Um, probably because she has not had any nutrition in her stomach in 6 weeks!! I'm praying for her!

@cc4math @newbeginning77@desertgirl_74@Chrystee Thank you all! It really helps to have this support.

Day 41 Post Op. She continued to do pretty well yesterday until she had a shower about 9:30pm. After the shower she started blacking out and threw up afterwards. Sigh. Well at least she got 24 hours in without vomiting. I'm still taking it as progress. She's still asleep this morning so I'm not sure how she's doing today but I think she's still better.

I bet her blood pressure is very low.. make sure her Water isn't too hot and she is careful when she gets up and sits down..

Hope the IV helps even though she only got thru 24 hours. Keep us posted on her surgery and we will all be praying for her.

6 weeks Post Op today. She had the 2nd surgery on the kidney stone today and they successfully got it! It had traveled back up towards the kidney so that thing was not going to come out on its own, that's for sure.

It remains to be seen how/if this will affect the nausea and vomiting. I'm praying it was the cause of it all and she'll be nausea and vomit free after today! Thanks all for the thoughts and prayers.

@@ShellMilliner Thank you!

She's doing really well so far today. The nausea has diminished a great deal! She has even taken a few bites of food today and is drinking without nausea and vomiting! YAY! She's still on IV TPN but they are talking about discharging her tomorrow (she will still have IV at home until she can fully sustain food and drink.) I'm hopeful for the first time in a long, longggg time!

So it sounds like it was the kidney stone. Hopefully this means she's on the upswing. Hoping the rest of her post op goes smoothly!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
