Already been back to the hospital...having problems
I had my surgery on March 15th and it was going fine but I started getting super nausious about a week ago. I couldn't keep anything down including liquids so I got super dehydrated. I was constipated and week and light headed, I ended up back in the hospital to get fluids and figure out my nausea. At home I've been taking zofran and comprosine. We figured out I wasn't eating enough so the stomach acid was just churning and making me throw up. I was in the hospital for three days and getting nausea medicine through y IV and I was doing pretty good as long as I ate every two hours. Now I am home (came home last night) and I've thrown up everything I've eaten. I'm making sure I eat low fat low sugar very pureed food. I called the nurse and she said I should try to drink something other than water because that can make the acid worse. She said to drink tea. So I've been doing that but I still can't keep anything down. I am also eating and drinking slowly. I am just at a loss. I don't want to end up back at the hospital but at this rate with not being able to keep anything down I am headed that way.
Anyone have any thoughts?

That is the same thing that happened to me. I just posted a forum about this as well. About getting out of a week stay at the hospital. I wasnt able to hold anything down either, nausea etc. I been on Zofran as well. But mine took a turn for the worse, after tests, scope, scans, etc I have to have a reversal. My body is not tolerable for the RNY. Sucks! But I have to do what I have to do to stay healthy. I wish you the best because I just got out the hospital yesterday from yet another week in there. I know the frustration, and pain you are going through!

Are they sure it's not a stritcure? will your dr not do an endoscopy to make sure? My surgery was 2 days after you and i was very dehydrated coudn't eat I would never throw up but i sure wanted too. I was barely getting 10oz of water in.. I went monday to my dr explained for over a week I was nauseated dizzy etc etc and they next day he scoped me and had to open my stoma said i had a stricture. I would try to insist on them scoping you to make sure. Im still a lil nauseated but its gettin better.. good luck hunnie
