So, I was told that scar tissue can wrap around the intestine or in some way prevent food from passing, causing pain, etc. I don't know if that's what's wrong with me right now, but I have been to the ER three times in the last week with intense vomiting, nausea, and abdominal pain. I can't hold hardly anything down, and when I have gone to the ER, they have merely given me something for the pain and vomiting, fluids, and sent me home.
The first time this happened, a month ago, I was admitted for roughly a week, given pain meds, anti-nausea meds, and had a tube down my nose into my stomach to empty it out. A doctor told me it was possibly scar tissue and, when I could hold down food, I was sent home. This time, no one seems too keen on helping me at that hospital. The only other one nearby is even worse and I refuse to go there. I'm at my wit's end and need help, but I can't see my GI doctor for nine days.
