    Well there's about 14 hours left of the year so hope i've not jinxed thins by voting already, but so far, no I didn't throw up in 2011 and that was through pregnancy, labour and caesarean surgery under general anaesthetic, so I'm happy

    ^ Only 23 percent of emet females vomit during their pregnancies. The odds are in your favor. Doug

    I threw up quite a few times in 2011, one of those times was because of noro.

    I honestly expect to throw up at least once a year. The longest I went without throwing up was 7 years (ages 7-14) after that the longest was 3 years, and then I've thrown up about every year after that. So at least I'm not gonna get my hopes up by thinking "hey! I won't get sick!" Because reality is I could get sick, and it's not dangerous, and never will be. But then again my "vomiting past" does not determine my "vomiting future" So just take it one day at a time, no matter what year it is

    Think I skewed the numbers. I meant to hit 'no' but simultaneously was trying to enlarge the screen and it filled in yes. I hit submit before realizing it had changed
    so, officially no for me for 2011

    You're being pessimistic, Jade. Most people throw up less as they become adults, especially emets. If you can get through 7 of the most puke-intense years without vomiting, I think you stand a good chance of going many years of your life without doing the liquid laugh.

    No, for the 17th year in succession (phew).

    That said, on every other front, 2011 was a terrible, awful year for me.

    Came close in February to it, but nothing came up at least. Only had genuine n* about twice, and 'fake' n* at least 100 times!

    Loved the 'not sure' option. I don't know if people can v* in their sleep during a bout of sleepwalking, but I've not heard of this, and I doubt an emet could manage it without having a sleep panic attack!

    I almost did (and I mean REALLY almost) so I'm hoping I'm safe this year. What an odd way of thinking?

    Yes and it caused my whole stomach illness. May 8th, 9:58am ,the morning after my 21st birthday I caught Noro and V* 3 separate times. First time hurt so bad, I forgot all about my fear and was afraid I was having a heart attack or asphyxiating from it. I don't drink so no, it wasn't a hangover haha

    Not everyone is good with dates. There might be some people who vomited about a year ago but aren't sure whether it was 2010 or 2011. Doug
