Jennifer,

You shouldn't have to deal with the sutures that are not dissolving and causing you to gag. If you don't have an appointment, you should make one. It would be a good idea to get the external sutures checked. It sounds like they could be infected.

Call tomorrow. Good luck and let us know what happens.
