[|Human|] I had major cancer surgery in the left chest wall. Due to other complications, my surgeon had to create a hernia below my right breast. That was in November 2012. Recently, I am experiencing nausea and occasional vomiting about 2 hours after I eat my first meal of the day. Is this a result of the surgery? Should I make an appointment with the surgeon?
[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for writing in. The occasional vomiting and nausea could be due to the hernia as you have pointed out. As I do not know the exact details of the surgical procedure, your doctor would be the best person to discuss this with you. A chest X-ray may be required that needs to be compared with earlier chest X-rays. As for your first meal, I suggest you take that in small amounts divided in 2 -3 smaller meals, until you meet up with your doctor. Hope this helps.
