What Causes Constant Diarrhea And Vomiting Post Hernia Surgery?

I had a laparoscopic surgery to repair (with mesh) an incarcerated inguinal hernia 3 months ago and I still am having diarrhea and sometimes vomiting after eating. I eat only bland foods (crackers, bread, peanut butter, sweet potatoes etc.)but I have very bad GERD if I eat anything other than bland. I sleep with my upper body raised to lessen acid reflux but usually end up vomiting green liquid. What s up with this?

Welcome at HCM...
I am DR SAAD SULTAN and will be answering your query.
I have gone through your query and being your physician i totally understands your health concerns.
what is your age and sex? for how long you are suffering from it?
Diarrhea has not a direct connection with your hernia repair. IT may be IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME. you need to be seen by GASTROENTROLOGIST so that you can be properly assessed.
you may need to use antibiotics along with antispasmodics. use omeprazole for heart burn.
Meanwhile stay calm .
Hope your query is adequately addressed , if you still have any feel free to ask anytime.
Regards
Dr saad sultan
