Is it possible to make it through noro without v?

I don't know a lot about it and I was just wondering, it sure would make me feel better if that was possible

[jkl81]

It is definitely possible, the likelihood of it depends on stuff like how determined you are not to v*,if you have good antiemetics, and how badof a case of it you have. Mild case with someonewho rarely v*s and has antiemetics, I'd say it's pretty likely.

Yes, I have had it plenty of times with d and not v.

Yes, probably most of us here have done it. Doug

Yup. Last winter I got noro along with about half the people I worked with. I had lots of d* but did not v*. It actually got to the point where I wished I would v* and tried to make myself just to try to get rid of the nausea. For me, I'm not so much afraid of v*, mostly being in a place where I don't feel safe v*, as I was already home sick from work, I actually think I would have felt better if I could have v*. For what it's worth, I know it was noro (or something similar) and not just anxiety as I had a fever, body aches, and was having d* so often that I slept on the floor of the bathroom.

I've had noro with only d and no v. I felt a bit queasy, but never even had the urge to v. I think it just all depends on the person.

Yes. My father had it and it was only d*, but a lot of nausea. I wasn't so lucky

Thank you everyone that makes me feel a lot better

I'm not sure but I think I have just had it! I normally feel *n most of the time but this has been different! Awful *d with v intense feelings of *n however have not *v maybe will power? Who knows!

[ilovemypug]

I have done it 4 times!

[NaiveAndTrue]

I did it last night. Lots of slow even breathing, swallowing, and will power, will power, will power.

[Sam_]

I think will power is a lot of it. I have read that it is possible to be so utterly determined not to vomit that your conscious brain overrides the subconscious part that knows you need to vomit.

I know this is an older post, but I wanted to give you some hope. I have had it many times over the past 24 years and only v* with it one time. I think I had it a few weeks ago. Very n* and lots of watery d* and cramps but no v*. Very possible. It's more usual for me not to v* than to v* with noro!
