Nausea and vomiting

I will be 20 years post op this June. I have been pretty much horizontal since Christmas Eve. I have severe pain in my gut starting right at bypass stoma. Lower gut hurts. I am afraid of a blockage. If I turn in bed or stand upright I get an immediate attack of nausea. I start dry heaving for 5-10 minutes due to the pain. This causes me to collapse back in bed exhausted. New Year’s day and I am passing some gas. But, I have never had anything lasting this long.

You ABSOLUTELY need to get ahold of your doctor ASAP. If you can’t, please go to the ER!!!
 
I came through the majority of the pain and resolved the intestinal issues with citrate and time. I am definitely weak and very sore. Next time it happens I will get to the ER straight away. Thank you.
