Throwing up blood 5 weeks post op



Recommended Posts

I am almost 5 weeks post op and just threw up blood. I had been feeling kind of sick today like I had a cold. My throats been hurting and I've been coughing all day. I had not eaten or drank anything for at least an hour before I threw up. When I threw up it was dry heaving and then some blood came up. I still feel nauseous. Has anyone experienced the same thing or give me some insight on what it is?

Hi kgd002 - I personally never experienced anything like this and it sounds very scary. Please call your surgeon right away and go to the ER to get checked out.

Thank you I just spoke to my dr. He said either gastritis or an ulcer. Either way he upped my nexium dosage and will probably do an endoscopy.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
