Aaaargh! Ruptured oesophagus from vomiting...

[Schmickers]

DW has topped herself this time. She has now been vomiting so violently that she has ruptured her oesophagus.

She's on a soft / fluid diet and ondansetron to try and control her vomiting, although as this has not worked for us in the past, I suspect it will not be effective this time either. She is supposed to try not to vomit for the next two days and then go back to our ED to see if the tear has closed.

she has well and truly earnt the new nickname "Chucky"
Maybe its time from some zofran

sounds terrible Mick! my thoughts are with your DW - sending as many anti-chuck vibes as i can!

hope all goes ok over the next few days, and that the ms settles very soon for her

Your poor DW!
I was given Maxalon for my m/s.
I had Hyperemesis Gravidarum. Severe m/s.
I hope it helps her. Did nothing for me, just gave me anxiety attacks. (We tried it 3 times!)

oh no mick! hope she gets better soon!

OMG thats awful!!!!

I wish her a speedy recovery and no more vomits!!!!

[MantaRay]

Oh no The poor thing. I really hope she manages to stop vomitting long enough for it to heal (and even longer!). It must be really hard for you too right now, working and taking care of everybody. I hope it gets easier for you all soon.
