hey everyone ... feeling really terrible right now. I haven't been able to keep anything down now for nearly 24 hours. it started yesterday morning with a scrambled egg, which I thought maybe I ate too fast but now I'm wondering? Last night I threw up everything I ate for supper as well and I've been up all night with nausea and vomiting. even sips of water come back up as clear, thick mucus (tons of it). when I try to lay down, the pain, burning and pressure is intollerable. I'm out of state for the holidays and 400 miles away from my surgeon. should I get it checked out or just wait and hope I feel better soon?

Eggs are very difficult to eat.  I would just go back to liquids for a few days and let your pouch calm down.  This is fairly common during the first three or four months.

By chance could you call your office and talk to a nurse or on-call doctor?

Feel better. I would just drink liquids till you are feeling better. A lot of times we think it is the surgery making us sick but then it just may be a bug.

I thought a stomach bug as well. Holiday gatherings are notorious for spreading of germs!!  Sip, sip, sip tea and clear liquids and rest your pouch. For either reason, this will help. If it worsens go to the ER. Then run it by your doc in the AM.

I took Zofran also.

thanks everyone ... feeling so much better. Finally about 1 pm I was able to sip some ginger tea and keep it down. took a 3 hour nap and woke up to no pain or pressure. I haven't had anything to eat or drink yet but feel like myself again. will probably just have a protein shake this evening and try to get my meds down. grateful this was nothing serious! I really hope to stay out of the ER!!!

Forget the eggs they dont agree for alot of people.  Took me twelve weeks to be able to eat them.
