Yes almost identical. Nausea retching vomiting clear frothy mucus for 8 weeks post surgery. Nothing helped- small meals, drinks only etc Also had to have tube removed. 3 readmission all tests and scans normal. Developed fear of eating due to consequences. Had to go home on TPN as couldn't eat after 8 weeks. Turned out to be time needed! Now 5 months on and happily eating 3 small meals a day with TPN at night to maintain weight but think it will.improve over months. Everyone said wait a year to see full stabilisation. There's hope so keep on going. Thought was going to be permanent but feels 100% better.
