I had gastric bypass surgery in 2006. I also work as a medical assistant
for a different bariatric surgeon in Virginia. We would suggest you take
Tylenol for the pain and you will need to call your doctor for a
prescription for Phenergan for your nausea. It would also be a good idea
to make an appointment with your doctor to rule out a hernia. Hope you
feel better.

I have not had surgery yet, but I was very sick before after a previous
sugery and I thought that I had done something to what my Dr. had fixed but
it ended up being that I had thown up so much that all my muscles in my
throat and my chest and stomache hurt for days. So yes I think you could
hurt from that. But you should still call your Dr. I hope you feel better.

I agree --you need to call your surgeon. You could have a stricture
(spelling)? you should not be vomiting everything, If fluids don't stay
down it sounds like a stricture ..but please get checked out. We are not
medical people and can only tell you of our own experiences. I have heard
people talk of strictures all the time in support gorup...it is easy to
remedy...hope you end up ok soon! hugs,Kim

If pain pills make you sick, then a pain patch will make you sick too.
It's all the same medicine... narcotics/opiates.
You are probably sore from vomiting, but you need to check in with your
surgeon about this (and also the person who prescribed the patch).
