Last year I had another complete blockage. This time they found my gut was “frozen” being completely bound with adhesions. It took the surgeon over three hours to cut all of them.
I have suffered from constant nausea since that operation. No pain, just nausea. After months of tests they finally did a procedure called enterolysis, where they put an NG tube through my stomach into my small intestine and then filled it with barium. This showed without a doubt a partial blockage of the small intestine.
My Gastroenterologist thinks the surgeon may have missed an adhesion, since I have had the nausea since the operation. He referred my to a surgeon at Froedtert’s in Milwaukee who is experience at latroscopily removing adhesions.
My questions is should I live with the nausea or take a chance on the operation causing more problems. I do not have any pain, just constant nausea. No medication seems to help the nausea.
Thanks
