Vomiting so soon after surgery is extremely dangerous. You need some anti-nausea meds immediately and the ER can give them to you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

line-dancer 810 Posted December 24, 2012 if the vomiting is happning after you take the meds there are probably getting stuck because you are swollen in that area. keep on the liquids hot as much as you can for the swelling and the comfort on the stomach and rest with your heating pad. Pain meds can also upset the stomach your heating pad is probsbly working better then the meds it did for me. 1 ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
