Vomiting/Motility/Post Surgery Issues

I’m so sorry to hear about this setback for your husband. It might be worth trying to get a second opinion. Are you near London? There are some excellent specialists there that you can go to. 
You’re entitled to ask for a second opinion though often people are reluctant to do that.  
I know that others on this group have done this and it clarified the diagnosis and the treatment. 
Hope things get easier as it must be very distressing for you both! X

Thank you for your reply and kind words.  Unfortunately we are based in central Scotland and although his team have been great, we are now at the end of the rope with everything and how slowly it is moving.  We are open to second opinions now though as my husband has literally no quality of life at the moment.  He is unable to even walk to the shop because he is so weak from being unable to eat of drink.  The effects of this both physically and mentally are absolute torture.  Surely he can’t be the only person for this to have happened to following this type of surgery and treatment.x

My husband went through period when he was nauseated and retching 24/7, went on for weeks, he was impatient at time and they had talked about discharge home with syringe driver from palliative team (even tho he wasn’t palliative) for anti sickness meds (he refused as he associated driver with his mothers final days) 

anyway, they stretched his oesophagus and although he had an unrelated heart /oxygen complication after that and ended up back in icu - when he eventually came round he was sooooo much better.  

Nausea is horrendous, he had zero quality of life at that stage and almost daily talked about euthanasia. 

May be worth asking if a stretch is an option.

take care
