Anya is sleeping very soundly right now and has not vomited since she went to bed about two hours ago. We were able to confirm the suspicions of a Hiatal Hernia via an Upper GI this afternoon. This is sort of good news to us in the fact that we FINALLY found SOMETHING. Tomorrow we will be contacting the surgeon and her two different GI docs for there opinions on how to handle this. As we understand it, in order to repair the hernia we will need to re-do the nissen. The issue we face is that if her vomiting is not caused by this hernia but rather caused by a neuroligical misfunction and her episodes continue after the surgery, each time she wretches as her body tries to vomit could potentially be very painful for her. THere are a few other risks but I am actually too tire to think or write anymore tonight... Bottomline, Anya is home and sleeping and it was overall a successful surgery. Goodnight.
