'Allo all; I did try to post this on the Annexe, but it seems to be down just now. Sorry for the OT thing but I have called the Dr. twice and his advice is not working too well........

Daughter Kate, age 17, had her tonsils out yesterday. She did quite well (too well!) yesterday in hospital but she has not kept anything down for over 24 hrs.......pushing 36 now. I have taken her off ALL po (by mouth) painkillers.....all were narcotics. Called Dr. and he said "Bring her up". I did, and he gave her a Demerol/atropine injection.......should have stopped the vomiting, but it didn't. She is awake now (after the injection) and still vomiting.

She has not kept anything (liquid, meds, food) down for almost 36 hrs. Does anybody have any suggestions at all??? If we can't find a solution, she will have to go back to hosp. and have an IV to re-hydrate and feed her........
