Thank You! I can't tell you what a relief it was for both of us to know that this is a "normal" part of healing. It is very exhausting for both of us as Bob only sleeps maybe an hour at a time before he wakes up coughing. As you have experienced, the vomitting is very painful. We have wonderful doctors, but you know how it goes, they never tell you everything to expect. We are not enjoying the surprises. Thank you very much for sharing info with two rookies.
