A member asked:

I had my appendix removed about 5 days ago and i feel nauseous and have thrown up, is that normal? whatever i eat will most likely get me nauseous

A doctor has provided 1 answer

After surgery...: You can certainly have gastrointestinal symptoms like nausea,diarrhea, etc after abdominal surgery. It would be concerning if it gets worse as the days go by or you start developing significant vomiting, abdominal pain, fever, chills. In that case you would need immediate evaluation.
