Fruit by itself is perfectly fine. Like the others have said, if it had a dressing or sauce then I'd rethink my answer but you'll be fine.


And food takes 30 minutes to register. You're home...

Look, I've said what I wanted to say. I'm not going to argue through a message board but I hope someone, anyone has read my advice and given it some decent thought. To the rest of you... I wish you...

I forgot to add, if any of you are curious, I've been a vegetarian for 4 years (my emet was diagnosed 2 years after I started that lifestyle) and vegan for 2 years. So no, I'm not doing this to avoid...

And you're telling me that that isn't fuelling your phobia? How can youenjoy food which is causing you do the one thing you're fearing? That's a very confusing statement.





This post was to...

That's true, but meat, dairyand the bi-products of it have a substantially higher risk to contamination than vegetables.I'm not saying cutting it out of your diet will rid you of food poisoning...

The thought has pondered in my mind for some time now so I thought I'd get it out in the open and get everyone's views and/or opinions on it. Before I start I'd like everyone to know that I'm a...

I'm turning 21 this year and I still feel like i'm 15. You're not odd at all, just young and heart and that's a good thing!

If you come here and log off feeling worse after reading some posts, I don't think being an emet is your only problem. This site has done nothing but help and encourage me, as I'm sure it's done the...

Flat lemonade does the trick for me if something I've eaten tastes a bit funny. Then again my diet doesn't really have anything that can go off easily! smileys/smilies_01.gif

I think anyone, emet or not, would be grossed out by that LOL.


Poor thing should've been taken to a vet.

Exactly! What really opened my eyes was when a close friend of mine was diagnosed with lung cancer and it wasn't looking good for him at all. This really opened up my eyes and my mind and made me...

Well i haven't posted here in a while and the reason being is i'm free! On New Years Eve i drank way too much alcohol and v*. At first i didn't know what to do but i thought " Well, after 10 years,...

Call me stupid but what does "sv" stand for?

Hey! I'm from Adelaide although i'm planning on moving Melbourne mid next year. As much as I love Adelaide, it gets boring as hell sometimes.


Sorry to hijack the thread...

Haha oh boy.


I have both my ears stretched out to 5/8ths of an inch. I had my septum pierced but my dog almost ripped it out so i took it out haha. I had my nipple pierced but it got annoying...

What's quite strange about this is that when you worry about being sick, my doctor told me that something happens in your throat and it contracts, making the chances of you v* even less than normal!...

Hello smileys/smilies_01.gif. Indeed, I am vegan. I was vegetarian for about a year and a half but made the transition to veganism after I found out about the reduced severity of many common...

Wow i've never heard of people getting ill from coleslaw. Isn't is just shredded vegetables with a bit of dressing and spices? I'm not quite sure as to how you can get ill since there's no possible...

Not at all. I avoid going out when there are stomach bugs going around and i've gotten to the stage where i'd lock myself in my room and avoid EVERYONE so i'm not faced with a v* situation.

I was just wondering if there are any vegetarians or vegans who frequently visit this site and if there was a special group or websitefor vegan/vegetarian emets? smileys/smilies_01.gif

I smoked for 3 years quite heavily and stopped almost cold turkey. For the first week my system was thrown into chaos. I couldn't eat or sleep properly and I was having terrible stomach cramps, no v*...

Keep your fluids up if you're having lots of d*. This will just dehydreate you and make you feel worse.


As far as V* goes, i've noticed with myself that if i have a stomach bug and i have d*...

that's really horrible dude. if my mum was like that to me i don't know what i'd do. i'm really lucky i have support from my parents and girlfriend. i think you're mum needs to come onto these forums...

Hi my name is Daniel. I'm 19 and i live in Australia. I've had a fear of vomiting for a while now. I believe my first experience was at my grandparents place when i was 8. I had a stomach virus and...
