Long story short my mom has not been able to keep ANYTHING down for 4 days. Not even a sip of water. Of course, being a nurse she cares about everyone but herself, so she finally went to the ER today. She was so dehydrated her skin was sticking together and she had a fever. She was banded in July and hasn't had any problems with it. Now she cant keep a thing down, has terrible, horrible reflux, middle back pain, nausea, constipation etc... She thought it was her gall bladder. That looked fine on the ultra sound tonight. They ruled out pancreatitis (sp?) also. They took an x-ray of the band and it looks like it's in the right place, but they are going to do a upper GI tomorrow morning. Please pray we figure out what this is and she gets some relief!

On top of this all, my aunt Nancy died this morning. She was 57 and died at bingo of a heart attack.

UGHH and I was actually having a good Valentines until I got home and everything went down from there.

thanks so much
Karen

I'm assuming they checked for partial or full bowel obstruction? Those are classic symptoms. Very sorry to hear about your Aunt and I hope they find the cause of your Mom's issues very soon. Prayers for you and your family.....
