Title: talk about your bad days....
Post by: Udie on September 02, 2002, 10:30:14 PM
anybody here ever vomit more than 20 times in less than 12 hours?  I was about an hour away from driving myself to the emergency room before it all stopped.  I HATE NAUSIA!!!!!  That's got to be the worst feeling (besides pain) there is.  I'm off the meds until the doc sees me again,  I don't care what they say.  Nothing is worth this feeling.  Still weak from it and still a little nausiated :(


what a way to end a good weekend....

dude, I aint your mom.  but the Dr.'s an expert, you pay him a lot for his advice.  follow it.

 unless the nausia is a side effect the Dr. didn't expect,  take your fluff'n meds.

ps.   suffer through it, and get well.  I'm pray'n for ya.

Doctors can still prescribe bad meds, expert or not.

Riding the porcelain pony aint no way to live. The doc might need to decrease your dosage. Hope it all works out for you. Thoughts and prayers goin out from Alabama.

Udie,
Nausia is usually caused by not enough blood staying in your head, causing light headedness and nausia. Find out from your doc if it is some meds you are taking, food poisoning, not eating, drinking(water) enough, etc.
High protein and fatty foods take energy and moisture to digest which could lead to nausia. Are you supposed to be taking the meds on an empty or full stomach?
Good luck to you.
Best regards,
wSNPR

Could it be a coincidental "stomach flu"? I used to get this about every winter break as a child -- thankfully it happens far less frequently as an adult. Can't even keep down water, but it helps to still drink it anyway for hydration and to prevent dry heaves. It lasts about 12 hours with diarrhea in the mix (usually how it starts). I believe it's actually a food prep/handling issue and not the flu per se. If that's the case then you should be fine shortly. If not, then it sounds like you got some pretty bad side effects from those meds.

a typical side effect of the drugs.
I suggest you stick with it and listen to the qua.. er doctor.

seriously.
It usually takes time to get the meds adjusted.
Stick with it bro.

went to another doc this morning and he told me to stay off the meds.  Only got about 3 hours sleep last night :(  Still feel a bit pukey but much better than yesterday.  Something in me smells some BS from the medial profession though.....

I wouldn't say it's the medical profession entirely Udie...

I would say it's them companies that make the medicine.

Medical science cured Polio back in the day...

but for some odd reason, we can't cure a damn thing now-a-days. They can make ya live with whatever you got, but they can't (won't?) cure you of whatever you got. Just offer you more medication so you can live with it.

I wonder....

Not all people react to medication and their side effects the same way. I had a lump in my stomach and they gave me these fediddlein horse pills loaded with aluinium, the side effect to this was kidney failure. Well, 4 years ago i had a kidney removed. I now have one. Talk about a decision, Take the pills to reduce the lump in my stomach and have a good chance for kidney failure, enhanced by the fact i have only 1 kidney.

All this plus i was in Mexico. I stopped the meds while in Mexico for the simple reason, theres no way in hell i want to end up in a Mexican hospital if i have a kidney failure.

So, you need to decide how bad your your situation is, also see if there is an alternitive medication they can give you so the side effects may be different, who knows, your dick might get bigger....

Consult before taking yourself off med, unless you deem it is life threatening. Then take yourself off and see the Doctor again.

Dog out.....

well all I'll say is that what I experienced last night after NOT taking any drugs for over 12 hours was the closest thing to a bad acid trip I ever want to see.......

 Slept most of today so had to take a couple of xanex that were perscribed to me.  God please let me sleep tonight.  Funny part is that the depression has been gone since about the 3rd day in the hostpital.

 Hope they aren't trying to "creating business" :eek:

maybe this was some kind of 'perspective treatment'.
you know, they make you really feel like crap for a couple days then when it's over, depressions gone.  'cause every day seems wonderful as long as you're notsick like that again.

Udie

sorry you are having a rough go

are you excising? Stay busy during the day. Exhaust yourself with fresh air, exercise and an active hobby. keep your mind and body too busy to think about the other crap. Eat fresh fruits & veggies.
and remember:

"This too shall pass"

gl & God Bless

Well I think I don't need the meds, and only need therapy or a real good church.  

 My trust in doctors at least shrinks has gone down to almost zero.........

 They put me through mental hell Monday night.  When I get home I'll post the "poem" I wrote at about 1 am Monday night

Puking at all hours?

Yea, been doing that

Girl Ive dated all summer and fallen in love with hits me with "I need some space" kinda stuff...then goes on to say that she doesnt think we should see each other as much as we did, shouldnt be intimate....oh, but she just heard from an old boyfriend from her high school days...he's coming up to visit, so she might misbehave with him".

And this girl has two gorgeous kids I've become rather attached too.  2 weeks ago, we were the ideal couple.  This week, argh.

So, ya...I'm familar with that kind of nausea that comes with having your heart torn out with a dull spoon.  :(

And to add to the injury, she adores how I treat her, I've done nothing wrong, its all her...she needs to figure out what she wants, she so confused, ....etc

I'm trying to move on, give her that space she wants, and trying to do the things I did before she was in the picture.  Its a really slow heal, and although the puking has ceased, the ache is there.

If you find a cure for what you have, feel free to pass along a cure for my dilemma  :(

Post by: Wlfgng on September 04, 2002, 11:33:18 AM
sadly there's no cure.
let her go.  If she wan'ts you she'll be back.

one other thing.. don't be too nice.
I know that sounds funny but it's true.
If you're too easy they'll walk all over you every time.

This doesn't mean be an amazinhunk.. just don't be a door mat.

No, you're right.  I'm already distancing myself from her and trying to move on.  My friends have been great, keeping me busy and assuring me she needs her time to get sorted out  And if she wants me, she can come n find me.  

Nice guys finish last, I suppose.  But this one is smartening up.  Or trying.

Sucks LePaul.

Here is what worked for me:

I was engaged to a beautiful woman (Runner up Miss Raging Waters :)) When we had some "trouble". The engagement ended, and I was sick about it. Then I decided to move on, and set up a date with another lady.

My ex-fiance found out and showed up at my door an hour before my date. She was VERY convincingly sorry about the breakup and we ended up  getting married.

Ten years of hell later we divorced.

(run away!!!!)

Nice guys with money, portfolio’s, stocks, houses, and anything else the ‘Dad’ didn’t provide DO "WOW" the piss out of women with kids.

Geezus.

Why does the obvious elude so many competent people here? This thread is beyond weird.

Anyway…don’t put $100,000 worth of ‘glass’EFIS in your next  homebuilt jet aircraft Lepaul you had to sell. UPS or FEDEX or whatever moonlight baggage smashing job you respectfully work hard at, just ain’t going to impress her panties off, and put Harry Potter toys her in every kids toy box.

Oh, and another thing, Run…AWAY.
