No: You may have an unrelated viral gastroenteritis. But to be on the safe side call your surgeon to be on the safe side.

Not common: during recovery from surgery, vomiting is a serious symptom that needs to be evaluated. Call or go in to see your surgeon. Okay to sip tea with sugar. Go to ER if you also have a fever. Take family with you for support. Be well.
