    Re: Dissolvable zofran?

    My gastro gave me the dissolvable Zofran last week. Luckily I have not had to use it yet. But I feel better just having it if needed. Usually, I use Nauzene and that works for me.

    Re: Question about tattoos

    I have 3 (a back piece, left wrist & right leg). No n* or v* whatsoever.

  4. Traveling soon - scared that it is still going around!

    So my husband and I are flying to Tennessee in 2 weeks. I specifically booked it for the end of April thinking we would be safe, but after reading some threads on here tonite, I am not so sure.

    Re: mirtazapine

    I have been on Mirtazapine for a year now. I started with 15mg for about 5 months and I felt GREAT! I could sleep, I was not having panic attacks daily, and I could eat "normal" sized meals without...
  6. Re: How many emets have stomach problems and what are they?

    Re: Do you ever...

    Actually, I did stop by for a couple of hours. The first thing I asked is if the house was clean and my friend said she bleached everything as soon as her husband was better (which was Saturday). I...

    Re: Do you ever...

    Nice to see I'm not the only one. I mean, seriously... I know I'm extra cautious because of my emet, but still... Common sense would tell you to wash your hands after the restroom, or before eating...

    Does anyone get upset or mad at people (especially spouses, boyfriend/girlfriend, parents) if they catch a s*v* because you think they should know better and think to take the necessary precautions? ...

    Re: Husbands/boyfriends/partners etc

    My husband, though supportive in every other way, does NOT understand my emet.

    He is supportive of me when I am legitimately panicking - like if we come into contact with someone who was sick, he...

    Re: Finally gave in - need some support

    Thanks. I am on Remeron now. The only thing it has really helped me with is being able to sleep through the night. When I'm awake, I'm pretty anxious all the time. Summer was not bad, but Winter is...

    Finally gave in - need some support

    NOT what you might think.

    I finally gave in and threw down $80 buying 24 bottles of Germstar Noro. Yes... 24 FREAKIN' BOTTLES! i just received the shipment today so I haven't tried it yet. But......
  15. Re: do any of you guys carry pepto or some sort of nausea meds 24/7 ?

    I have a bottle of Emetrol ALL the time. If I happen to forget to put a new bottle in my purse, I will go to the store and buy one or I can't get through the day. I also have to keep one next to my...
  16. Re: Parties, holidays - what do you tell people?

    Thanks for the replies.

    I actually did eat before the party so I wouldn't have to eat there. I only had some candy that was wrapped.

    It's so hard... Like I tried telling my boss about it...
  17. Parties, holidays - what do you tell people?

    So it's getting to holiday season (though this happens all year).

    My fear is so bad now that I do not want to eat anything that anyone else has prepared because I don't know how they prepared it...

    So it's been a few months or so since I've been on this site (forgive me). Of course, as some illnesses tend to not be as prevalent during the spring & summer months, I tend to calm down just a...

    I have had a few of these tests. Some I had the chalky thick stuff, which I will confirm is difficult to swallow. It just made me feel full and they also told me not to be surprised if my next...
