ValleyGirl Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 I've been up with my two young children all night long- one has bronchitis and the other seems to be over the bronchitis but is now throwing up every thirty minutes since midnight. Their dad is on a business trip so I am tending to them on my own and I'm terrified I'm going to get one or both of these illnesses. I can't imagine coughing will feel good, but it's the throwing up that could make my band slip, right? I've left a message at the OCC already but would love some input. Should I down some gravol just in case? I am only 8 days opst-op. What next??? Sabrina:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ValleyGirl Posted December 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Is there anything besides liquid gravol that works well? Get some anti nauseau medicine right away! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tnm75 Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Sabrina, I would call your primary care doctor and see if he/she would prescribe Phenegren or Zofran... it is an anti-nausea medication that works wonders. Your meds DO NOT have to be in liquid form during your 21 day post-op... I verified this with Dr. Miranda. Take capsules normally and break tablets into two or three pieces.

CindyLou Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Phenergan suppositories would work the best to prevent the nausea and vomitting if you do get sick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
