What are the most common symptoms of ileus?

See below: Ileus is slowing of activity of the intestines. This results in nausea, maybe recurrent vomiting, inability to eat, increasing abdominal distension, lack of bowel movements. Can be associated with infections or a viral illness. Symptoms are very similar to a bowel obstruction & needs an evaluation with a doctor for a full medical evaluation.

Agree w Dr Hoepfner: Paralytic Ileus symptoms may include: nausea, vomiting, abdominal distention, ^ gas, abdominal pain to include cramps, constipation/ loose stools, bad breath, inability to pass gas or feces.
