Re: [IP] Stomach Problems
HI ya Robert!! Hope I am not too late!!! From what I read, you really
need to go see your primary MD or to the ER.....I am a RN and I see these
symptoms quite frequently. You most likely will need your stomach
decompressed, esp if your abd is hard and distended, plus with the nausea
and vomiting going on, its sounds like some sort of obstruction or a
paralytic ileus from the signs and symptoms you are stating, .....but as
you know, you will go thru some tests via the GI MD to find the cause of
your distention....But go to the hospital. Don't delay.
