Post-op upper GI this week - wish me luck



Recommended Posts

Well, since I've been growing ever more nauseated for the last two months (month 3-4 after surgery - first two months after surgery were fairly smooth sailing), doc has scheduled an upper GI for this Thursday. If that doesn't show anything, it is on to an endoscopy. I am NOT looking forward to drinking the contrast (I mean, really, that is just going to anger the nausea), but I'm hoping that they can find why I'm now nauseated 90% of my day and able to eat less each week (I'm now basically back to eating about how much I ate when I first got on soft foods). I did this major surgery so that I'd feel better. I really don't give a rat's behind how I look. And at this point, I feel WAY worse than before surgery and am actually taking more meds. So, here's hoping they can find something and fix it.

I hope they're able to figure out what's wrong quickly! Nausea is just awful, especially since it's gotten so bad for you when you were doing well the first couple months. :(

Thanks all. Radiologist said I have a hernia. Again. I'm stuck in jury duty all day without a phone. So I've been playing phone tag with my doctor's nurse. And, given our schedules, this may be an issues until my jury duty ends - in 3 more weeks. Ugh. I am so tired of feeling like crap.
