Just a reminder, you don't HAVE to do anything. People act like when you go the doctor they just do things to you. You're a consenting adult, you don't have to do anything you dont want to do. You're...

I'd keep persuing what is wrong.


My GI says "IBS" is doctors terms for "we don't know" and I find that to be unacceptable myself. I was diagnosed with IBS two years ago, and the medications they...

Metaclopromide (Reglan) is used to empty your stomach faster and move it through your intestines. I have nerve damage in my stomach which causes my stomach to not empty on its own, so I have to take...

I've been a professional patient since I was a baby. Having blood draws and invasive things done since then too, so 19 isn't a little boy, you're an adult, and it's time to act like one.


Sorry...

Thanks guys, it was a disaster. My problem is if I cook, that they come over to my house... and they use my bathroom. I have a problem with other people using my bathroom (weird, I know...).

I am just soo frustrated with my family, my extended family is not good to have if you are an emet/general germaphobic like myself.


Since my mom always cooks, every single year, for...

Emetrol works great for me, it has more instant results than pills. BUT it works in more of a gastritis/actual stomach situation. It probably didn't work with the alcohol because that is in your...

friend...


Did something REALLY dumb tonight.


This morning I had a muffin for breakfast around 9, and didn't eat anything the rest of the day until 9 PM, a friend and I decided to go out for...

I've never heard of a prawn cocktail chip... but I have to say it reminds me of Toto on The Muppets Wizard of Oz

Good job, Kate!Edited by: ChippedAway

It depends on the antibiotic. Some of them you shouldn't, some you can. Doxicyclene I know can't be taken with milk or food within two hours.


Moon- I didn't want to say it before, but...

My GI doctor told me that MOST of stomach ailments are stressed-related, so it's not just an emetophobe thing. I don't consider myself a true emet, I don't walk around constantly worried about...

You should be okay, like sillygirl said, have some toast or crackers in your stomach when you take them. Amoxicillin is pretty mild, they give it to babies and toddlers often because it doesn't have...

Drinking something cold and carbonated on an empty stomach can cause gastritis, it usually goes away in about 20 minutes after your stomach empties.


Sorry, that sucks!

Kate- I'm glad you're calling your GI, PLEASE keep us updated! If you ever think that nobody cares, we do!


Lots of us here have had the tests, and nobody has really ever said they were as bad as...

If you want tests to be run, you need to request/demand them. If not with him, then another. Be pro-active. You're paying him.

Get the tests done. They're not that bad, really. You need to be proactive if you want to solve this, otherwise, piss or get off the pot :)


I was nauseous for a year before we figured out what I...

Could be acid reflux. Take some pepto, rolaids or tums and see if it helps. If you trace your sternum until it ends and then push on the soft part there, and it hurts, that is a sign of acid reflux.

Black food dye also turns your poop green. Those black corn chips, and when they had those black M&M's... we had them at work, and we discussed this in great detail LOL.

I've been under 11 times, never v' once any of the times. Though since my fear popped up, I ask for Zofran, keeps you from getting sick.


Good luck, hope you get to feeling better soon.

Thanks guys... it seems to have stopped, for now anyway...


My mom said the best revenge is having a good life, so I'm going to try to do just that. Thanks for letting me vent. It's funny how...

Sorry you are having a hard time, Michele.


You're thinking about too many "what ifs" just focus on one thing at a time.


You need to smile :) so I have a smile for you... my aunt called this...
