I just got home from the hospital.  
I have intense cramping in my stomach with nausea and wretching.
When I took my pain medicine I threw up.
I hadn't had any liquids before that for 3 or 4 hours though.

Does this sound normal or should I call the doc.

You need to be able to take your pain and anti-nausea meds - call your doc and have him prescribe something different.

I think you should if you do not feel well. I am having mine next Tuesday so i am hoping things go normal as expected.

Sounds like stomach spasms.  Doc can prescribe something if that's it.

doc needs to be contacted..

if worse comes to worse you go get a bag of fluids or 2 at the hospital, they put zofran through your iv so your nausea is quelled so you can start taking the pills at home and keep from getting nauseus...

if they gave you liquid pain meds ask for 2mg dilaudid pills instead- they are tiny and not gross like drinking liquid pain meds..

going to the hospital to get rehydrated, if you must, is not the worst thing to happen.

Call your surgeon......

Take your temperature first so you can tell him/her.

Before Ieft the hospital after my surgery the Bariatric Coordinator and nurse came in to discharge me.... The first thing they told me was "if you have a medical question when you get home please don't get on OH or other VGS sites and ask them.... Call the surgeons office"..... 
I know that as a newbie here every time I have a question the first thing I want to do is come here and ask a vet. 
I pray you are okay and this is just a reaction to the pain meds or lack of hydration.  I hope you have a very speedy recovery.
