I’m sure this is a fairly common experience but any ideas would be very welcome.
My husband is about four months post Ivor Lewis and generally his recovery has been very good. Eating well but occasionally too much and then hasn’t felt well. He knows when he should have stopped. He has also developed an inguinal hernia which is really causing some problems now but hospital appt 11 September to hopefully, get that sorted out. Back pain which comes and goes depending on what he’s been doing ….. or if the dog pulled too hard.
All was well last night. Had dinner, walked the dog later ….. eventually bed and sleep but he woke at 01.30 with mouth full of saliva and immediate retching twhich continued for most of he rest of the night plus dreadful nausea. Nothing solid was regurgitated. Taken Ondansetron anti sickness meds but He’s still feeling nauseous today and can’t eat.
It seems to have come out of the blue and I’m wondering if due to delayed emptying. He did have a bit much at lunchtime, then small dinner and a couple of chocolate biscuits later however this has not been a problem before. I should add he has not suffered with reflux at all and has not needed a wedge or similar to sleep. We have an oncology appt on 1 September after his recent CT scan.
Any thoughts would be appreciated ….. I worry about anything new or different 
Thank you.
Geraldine
