    Default ...Am I okay now??...Help! May be graphic for some..

    So last night about 3:00 am I woke up and it felt like there was liquid in my throat that was coming up and I thought I was going to v* so I rushed to the bathroom while swallowing and once I got to the bathroom the sensation in my throat was then gone but my stomach near my ribcage felt like it was numb and went away after about 5 minutes but then my stomach was messed up from me running to the bathroom and being scared. I waited in the bathroom for about 10 minutes for the feeling to come back and it never did so I grabbed a cold wash rag and went and sat in my bed. I took 1/2 a phenergan and stayed up for another 45 minutes to see if the feeling came back. While I was waiting I had a NORMAL BM so that took the fear away a little because last time I had a SV it was not normal.... lol I then went back to sleep sitting straight up and my stomach felt odd but I think it was just anxiety because the last time I had a SV I KNEW it was nausea.

    All of this happened 3 hours ago and now I'm up for work because I work from the home. I almost called out but decided I wasn't going to let my emet stop me from working this morning.

    I'm not sure if it was v* or just acid reflux....I've had heartburn before but never acid reflux come up into my throat. The only reason I'm thinking acid reflux is because I ate a ton of dairy yesterday and I'm lactose intolerant. I wash my hands constantly it seems like however I have become a little more relaxed with it but always make sure I was my hands before eating and when I get home from being out.

    Do you guys think I will get sick again today?????? I have to work for 6 hours, then have an appointment to get my taxes done which normally takes about 3 hours because I have my business and personal taxes. I'm scared to eat this morning but know I probably need to......HELP!!

    Oh my bet is it was all the dairy cause reflux, if your body can't handle it it will cause some funky reactions! You should be ok today. Eat light and bland foods! Try to stay away from dairy!!!
