Oh Robin,
My heart goes out to you.... such a young marriage to be dealing with
this sort of situation! It is time your doctor stopped speculating and
started some action, continuos vomiting will only rip at your oesophagus
and stomach, let alone the lack of vitamins etc from the lack of food
staying in your body and the short variety too!
It is time for things to start happening, an exploratory or diagnostic
laparoscopy is what most of us have experienced or read about happening
to so many others, don't let it continue this way, demand answers!
If you have had surgery, then yes, they should be seriously considering
adhesions, the longer you are left in that condition, the harder it will
be on your body when you do have surgery and your recovery will be
harder! Get everything else ruled out, and then demand action!
I don't always think that surgery is the answer, and I am talking about
for myself here, BUT if I was living with your symptoms I would want
action, not guessing games with my doctor!
I will keep you in my thoughts & prayers
