Hi LeslieAnne,
I really cannot tell you anything of medical truth about your son's vomiting. However, I can offer my compassion; I have vomiting issues frequently - even now, almost 3 months post-op. Let me know what your son's surgeon says. I hope your son feels better soon - nausea can be debilitating.
May I ask....you said he is nauseated.,.do his symptoms change when he is laying down and then is upright?
Is he on stool softeners?...
It could be a CSF leak....or a bug that is going around....so best bet is to have the talk with his Drs.....
Let us know how he is doing....
Hi everyone, we ended up calling paramedics last night and going back to the hospital overnight. He picked up a nasty stomach bug in the hospital. He's home and better now, still nauseated but better. This has been a tough road! Leslie
I would not wish either on anyone recovering from surgery...keep him hydrated and all he can do is rest up....keep his drink glasses washed...so he is not using the same glass over to not reintroduce the same bug back....get a new toothbrush etc....typical bug/flu standards but take it up a notch....lol...
Let us know how he is doing.
