Any reason why they shouldn't give anti-nausea meds with anasthesia routinely?
I was just wondering. I've been put to sleep only once and don't remember being nauseous;however that was a long time ago and my body has been through major changes since then. My daughter recently had surgery and was violently ill afterwards and I was wondering if there is any reason why they wouldn't give anti-nausea meds "just in case". Is there a danger? I would think it could be a little dangerous for post RNY patients to be vomitting. I also remember waking up extremely agitated and ripping out my oxygen tube. OOPS. Should I let them know to be on the lookout? Probably wouldn't be a bad idea, huh? Thanks in advance.
