WRETCHING-NAUSEA-DEHYDRATION
by: LYNNE C. on Mon, Sep 08 2008

Had nissen done twice. 1st surgery was july 07, and had a second done july 08. Can’t eat or drink, constantly wretching and nauseated. Had five hospitalazations due to dehydration and electrolyte imbalance. Wretching is severe and nausea is severe.

I have had gi immotility since birth and i am presently in johns hopkins where they are treating me with fluids and electrolytes and anti nausea-vomiting drugs. Please, if anyone has been through this with this severity and has had successfull treatment, let me know what it was.
