Is anyone else Unable to Vomit?

I had a Lap RNY 8 mths ago and have been Unable to Vomit since. I might have sever nausea w/dry heaves but Nothing Ever comes up. Even when I eat something that disagrees w/me I just dry heave and have to suffer. Recently I came down w/a Stomach Virus/Flu and had to spend 4 days in the hospital because I couldn't vomit, which would have helped. Instead I had to let it go through my system, which was very painful. The surgeon who was called in, in case I had an adhesion or whatever, said that I might have to suffer like this everytime I catch a stomach bug or possibly a cold cause I can't vomit. Anyone else have this problem? Please, Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thank You.
