Thank you so much!

Marnie, did you go back to the hospital via the ER?

I forgot to say he called in a sublingual nausea medication. That didn't help at all though.

The bad thing about having surgery at the end of the week is that you are pretty much on your own over the weekend. The on call surgeons seem put out. The first time I called she was downright rude. My daughter is 18 so she is really young for this surgery but all of her specialists recommended this to help her numerous health issues. The surgeon was like, "well I don't understand why she can't talk to me" when I told her she was in so much pain that she couldn't talk. She was very short with me and dare I say bitchy. The second time I called there was a new surgeon on call and he was a little nicer. So... It makes me not want to call again. I wouldn't be bothering them if I didn't think this was serious.

She went without pain meds last night, still not drinking much at all. She has taken them before and hasn't had the nausea like this. This is barf bag to her face pretty much all day kind of nausea.

Hi Cockapoo and Foreversleeved, my daughter just got her sleeve at St. David's in Austin Thurs 3/26. I was so impressed with the facility and staff! Such a difference from Seton where she had her gallbladder removed last year. She's having so much pain and nausea she can barely sip anything. I hope she starts feeling better soon. She's really regretting her decision right now. ????

My daughter just had hers on Thursday and she's having similar issues with pain when she drinks and really bad nausea.

Thanks JCP it's nice to know there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Her liquid hydrocodone really burns. I tasted a little bit and can understand. Did you guys have liquid pain meds?

Wow, so many people having barely any nausea. My daughter just had her surgery on Thursday 3/26 and has had severe nausea and esophageal pain to the point where age can barely take a sip of liquid without pain and feeling like she's going to vomit.

Thank you. She just tried to sip meds again and had severe pain and kind of a hiccup. Each time she tries, this happens.

Thanks all, she's on hydrocodone at a pretty high dose but she didn't take it today because the liquid hurts going down. I talked to two surgeons on call, one was an ass but the second called in a different nausea meds. Hoping that will work. I've discovered how unbelievably stubborn she can be. If it persists like this I will take her to the ER.

But she's refusing to drink because it hurts too much.

I've called the doctor twice today. They say just to make sure she drinks and called in an anti nausea prescription. They said its normal.
