Now he takes so many medications I am worried that some are the cause. He throws up most mornings, even after not a lot of food the night before. His stomach contents are vial looking, very brown and thick. They episodes are dehydrating him. He takes: aspirin, lipitor, allegra, losartin, atenolol, plavix, protonix, hydrochlorothiazide and lantus and humulog for his diabetes. He was on reglan for a short time.
They took out 1/2 of my stomach, due to it was lack of blood flow and part of it died. I have been throwing up sence the surgery. I am still throwing up. I throw up at least 3 or 4 times a day. Every day. I have lost 22 lbs in this last 6 months, and it seams no one cares. I am getting really scared for my life. 79 lbs. is no joke. I really need help..
ve been given the no-go on surgery is that the cyst is located very close my colon that I just had surgery on. Their not to worried it will twist because the colon is kind of keeping it stable,but I am worried it will twist or burst then I'll go from a fairly simple procedure to a major ordeal. I always seem to be that tiny percent that weird things happen to.I go back for another ultrasound this Wednesday,if it's bigger again in a weeks time I wouldn't be surprised.
My mother had surgery March 9, 2016, on her colon for diverticulosis and they removed a piece of her colon. Stitched her back together and she ended up leaking from where they pieced her colon back together, which led to an infection in her stomach, They took her back in for emergency surgery on March 12, 2016 and gave her a colostomy bag.As told to me by the doctors, she wasn't breathing very well so they stuck on her a ventilator. They kept her on sedation meds in the SICU called propofol.

Listen to your doctor. I've been battling abdominal adhesions for 10 years. Wait long enough and you risk a full bowel obstruction, meaning you may end up with a bunch of dead intestines due to loss of blood circulation. Throwing up feces isn't any fun either. Then you get the joy of bowel resection along with lysis of adhesions. Adheliolysis surgery is not a major surgery. A bowel resection is. There is every reason to have the adhesions dealt with sooner rather than later.
My friend went in for bypass surgery she had blockage in one leg and some where down past her heart. After surgery is became very sick throwing up green she cannot hold any food down . The doctor after 3 weeks in the hospital told her she had a obstruction in the bowls and they had to go back in and they said something flipped and they had to fix it. now 2 weeks later they sent her home from the hospital and she is still throwing up green and she is still sick to her stomach.
Hello, my grandfather is 55 years old and had always been in great health until polyps were found in his colon. He got them removed then shortly after was told he needed surgery. He elected to do the labroscopic (spelling sorry) surgery as opposed to the open surgery. He did not recieve a single CT scan before the surgery so during the surgery the doctor slipped and ended up cutting him open and taking out 60% of his colon. Home from the hospital for 9 days he called the dr.
I am a 41 year old woman whowas hospitalized for diverticulitis about 3 months ago. After antibiotics, bowel rest and iv fluids, it went away. I am going to have a colonoscopy this summer as a follow up. Since then, I have had three different episodes of discomfort and the feeling that I need to have a bowel movement, but can't...or having many, many small bowel movements for a 24 hour period. I have never had this problem before.
it has just gotten worse over the last 6 months.
Has anyone had there large intestine removed and had their small intestine attached to their rectum for colonic inertia and ended up with constipation after surgery? I heard that is a risk factor. That you can get the surgery but there might be a chance you will have constipation again one day. Also has anyone had their large intestine removed for colonic inertia and then their small intestine eventually give out on them?

For the past year ive been having trouble throwing up after meals and constipation. it will feel like a pressure in my chest and feel like i need to belch however food comes back up. This can last for up to an hour after eating and i can get chest pain and some abdominal pain with it. If i drink water after a meal the vomiting can be more forecful. The problem can go and go and last between a few days to a few weeks. it seems to subside for maybe a week or so and then comes back.
Am I the only one that heaves for a minute before throwing up? My husband is pissing me off because he says that I need to learn to fight throwing up, and that he can hear me heaving before I even throw up....and if it keeps happening I'm going to have to have major surgery -.- what he doesn't understand is the heaving is my stomach contracting and bringing the contents up! Obviously I try to fight it down...who doesn't?
I had ischemic colitis 3 days after surgery on my spine. I had a severe drug reaction and passed out after hrs of vomiting and supposedly I stopped breathing for a few moments, anyway it was explained that when that happened my body redirected my blood to more important organs like my heart etc. and about 2 feet of the inside of my colon died. Fortunately after the colonoscopy they determined that it would heal but I was on a clear liquid diet and major antibiotics.
I got really sick when I went off steroids and there was a leak, I did end up with additional problems because it was after my second surgery and I had other things going on too but the steroids kept me doing okay and then when I finished things would go crazy, they put me on them again assuming Aseptic meningitis and I was good for another ten days until I was off the steroids again. Sounds like he NEEDS an MRI or at least a CT scan to see if there is a leak there causing problems.
He was surprised that nobody told me that it was likely I would have issues with haviing diarrhea ongoing.
m glad to hear you are doing well. After colon resection surgery I had similar diahrrea for a few weeks. You are only 3 weeks post-op and the colon can really take its time adjusting. I'd give it a little time. I know how hard it is to live with that but for me it got a lot better with time. I wish you the same.
Everyone is different when it comes to what they can and cannot eat after this type of surgery. My son had his entire colon removed and eats just about anything he wants. He has a few "trigger" foods that he avoids. It's really trial and error as to what will affect each individual. He needs plenty of fiber, needs to stay well hydrated, and eat yogurt enriched with probiotics. Until his system gets back to normal, dehydration can happen very easily.
Hi everyone! It's Karen. I've had issues keeping my yahoo id, and I had signed out and not remembered my password. When I went to yahoo to pull it back up under yahoo and designgyrl, I was unable to. So, this is Karen.
Now to my issue. I'm having surgery next week for a EUS, where they go in and look at all my organs, take any biopsies that they need to, drain fluids if they need to and basically come up with the definite answer if this is chronic pancreatitis.
I am 44 years, I had Colon Surgery on 5/3/10 because of an obstruction in my lower colon due to a case of endometriosis on my uterus which caused a fibroid to fall on my rectum wall. Doctor said it was a rare case. I have the obstruction cut out and my colon reattached. I stayed in the hospital for one week and left because I was having normal bowel movements.
I'm 6 weeks pregnant and I have been able to keep everything down except wienersnitzel. I threw that up 5min after eating. And I just went to bed and let my stomach relax. Didn't want to risk throwing up again.
