AlteredReality 152 Posted February 13, 2019 I got sick with a bad cold last week and started having stomach spasms. At first I thought it was something I ate, disagreeing with my stomach. It kept happening though. There hasn't been much that takes the pain away, except for drinking some hot herbal tea. It's also caused me to vomit more than I would care to. A lot of times it's painful dry heaves though. I go to see the gastroenterologist on the 19th and i'm hoping they can figure things out. Has anyone else experienced this? 1 FluffyChix reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Has anyone else experienced this? When I left the hospital I had a script for medication to counter act stomach spasms. I would ask your surgeon if you could get one for your stomach. 1 AlteredReality reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If she doesn't, i'm sure the gastroenterologist will be able to prescribe something when I see him next Tuesday Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AlteredReality 152 Posted March 2, 2019 Please know I have been thinking of and praying for you. I hope your gastroenterologist visit is helpful quickly.Thank you so much...I truly appreciate that!!! My appointment was very helpful. Turns out there is sludge in my gall bladder and they feel that is what caused the ulcer. So my gastroenterologist is sending me to a surgeon and has suggested that my gall bladder be removed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
