Stomach, Ulcers, Gastric Bypass, Colon Disorders Answer A175
Posted: 11-29-06 03:11am

Hiatus hernias and [especially] stomach ulcers can cause vomiting and abdominal pain. Most often, however, diarrhea is caused by an intestinal infection. If you are vomiting so much that you can’t import any water and salts into the body by drinking, you will have to take water and salts via supplementary therapy through an intravenous line (IV infusion) to prevent dehydration. If you are vomiting this much, you won’t be able to take the medicines for your stomach ulcer, either. You can request anti-ulcer medicines and painkillers, if necessary, through the IV. You SHOULD go to ER if you feel as badly as you describe.
