2 Years after my surgery I started having problems. I'm hoping someone out there can tell me if they went through this or give me advice. 5 months ago (2 years after my surgery) I started vomiting. I would have SERIOUS pain in by my left shoulder blade. The vomiting was/is mostly very foamy. First I thought is was the type of foods I was eating. It started out with a biscuit, pizza, pancakes. I thought I might have been allergic to gluten. Then I would start throwing up vegetables, cheese, anything, etc. Even though the vomiting concerned me, I was more interested in what caused the pain in my left shoulder blade. The only was to ease that pain was to stick my finger down my throat until I almost threw up a lung. Getting EVERYTHING out!!! Like I said, the foam is weird. I went to a gastro. dr. and he thought it might be my gall bladder. They did a ultrasound and didn't find anything. He gave me an RX for the nausea. The RX is supposed to be strong, he said cancer patients take it to control their nausea after chemo. Well, that didn help. He said if it continued to have an endoscopy done. I've been putting it off. Does anyone have this problem or do you have any idea what is happening to me?

HI.

Sounds very similar to my gall bladder issues. My dr did everything and discounted gall stones. Finally, only after blood work ,did they do an ultrasound and they discovered how damaged my gall bladder actually was. I was not allowed to leave the hospital and they did surgery the next morning. I had excruciating pain around my shoulder blade, and once it started I immediately headed to the bathroom with B/M (who would have thought they were connected) and then I would have to just "walk it off". After the surgery, I felt like a ton of bricks had been lifted out of my stomach. The surgery was nothing compared to the pain. I wish you well!

Maybe your pancreas if it's not your gallbladder?

You don’t want to wait too long before getting it checked. The longer you have the “foamies”, the more damage you could be doing to your esophagus. Please don’t wait.
