    I've had to use it a couple of times. Once I got a headache and felt "blah", but no nausea or vomiting. You will be fine! It's just a lot of hormones.
    PM me for contact info such as skype, email, or facebook. Thanks!

    Ok, Thank you so much for your replies..I just took some zofran...I'm going to let that absorb and then I'm going to take the Plan B. I feel reassured, but I'm still really scared!

    Take Gravol or something with it. I felt dizzy and light-headed, more fluish than anything. If you're on birth control already, you'll probably feel less of an effect.

    Friends know where to reach me.
    So long, and thanks for all the fish.

    I took it three hours ago and so far I'm just having the fluish type of feeling(Of course, I did take it with a dose of Zofran) Any ideas on how long I can expect to feel the side effects?

    Hello, dear. I took the Plan B pill once and I was terrified as well. I never had ANY side effects from it whatsoever
    I CAN get through this! ♥Melanie♥

    One of my best friends who couldn't be any less of an emet and will v* from anything has taken it on numerous occasions and have never gotten sick from it. I hope you're still doing ok... personally I would keep some Gravol in my system for the next day or so just as a little extra reassurance.

    I understand your fear! I was nervous the first time I had to use Plan B as well, but I had absolutely NO problems. My only side effect was a minor headache, but I was still able to go about my day with no changes.

    You'll be fine

    Well, I got through it fine. I had one bout of nausea but nothing too bad(I took zofran) Now, I've started on birth control(I am in a new relationship...hadn't been "active" for years) because of ovarian cysts and I figured the added benefit of not having to worry about pregnancy would be nice! Of course, now I'm nervous about that too...sigh, this phobia is such a pain in the arse!
