Stomach pain and vomitting

[Dhen]

Hi there my dad is 3 mo post op still can't really eat or drink. He has been having these episodes of horrible stomach pain and then vomits to help relieve pain.' He's on reglan, took zofran I think it might be helping. The drs haven't gotten back to him I'm afraid he's not doing well. Anyone experience this ?

Hi. You really need to get in touch with the medical team. That's a must. They should be available at this stage in his recovery. Haward

They say everything he's doing is good. Not sure why he keeps vomitting

As Haward suggests, contact your surgical team. They've invested a great deal of time, energy - and money - into your Pa and will not spoil the ship for an ha'pworth of tar. They need to be informed if the treatment path isn't progressing according to plan. Try contacting your Macmillan caseworker(s) the first instance: I've found they respond pronto to email or telephone contact if there's a problem. It's a tough old road to recovery but your Dad can and will make it; but he needs and deserves the support of his consultant and team.

I would suggest he halves the amount of food. And, check to see if he has bile in his stomach. I had the same problem. Get some litmus paper test strips. He should lick one after vomiting. If it turns green then it is definitely bile. It only takes about 5 ml of bile in the stomach to cause the symptoms. I found taking a teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda in a Tumbler of soft drink helps. You need to remember that his stomach is now very small. I can only eat the equivalent of 1 slice of bread at a time. I hope this helps. Good luck.
