DELETE THIS ACCOUNT! 12,703 Posted April 3, 2013 If your profile is correct and you just had surgery yesterday, either go into your surgeon immediately or go to the ER. Vomiting/heaving so soon after surgery is very dangerous. 2 hely88 and 2muchfun reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kileybug34 173 Posted April 3, 2013 Bless your heart. Hang in there. Saying a prayer for you now. I hope that it goes away soon. Ask about getting some of those motion sickness pads that go behind your ear. They help it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hely88 883 Posted April 3, 2013 That should help it also will probably make you sleepy which could be a really good thing. Feel better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ginger C 4 Posted April 3, 2013 I had dry heaves to the day after my surgery. I was fine as long as I didn't move around, but when I got up to walk I would get so nauseated that it would case me to dry heave. it only lasted about 4 hours, my Doctor said it was just my body adjusting. Praying that your will pass soon. 1 ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm taking nausea meds but don't think it's helping much any help as to what I need to do ?? Please Make sure to try and hold a small firm pillow or rolled up towel over your abdomen if coughing or heaving. Try lying on your right side propped with pillows. It helped me. Hope u feel better soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

laurigee 545 Posted April 4, 2013 Are you taking pain meds? I throw up any time I use them. Not saying that's what it is, just wondering. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
countrygrl 175 Posted April 4, 2013 I am but not alot I have maybe taken about 4 Doeses since surgery. I was afraid that what was causing this but I went to pcp today an he said it was more likely from my hernia repair because if the size it was an didn't think it was my band because I'm not puking just dry heaving. He took out 3cc anyways so i pray this will help. Thanks for everyone's concerns for me !!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
