    Default virus or maybe just a stomach ache?

    So since yesterday morning I've had stomach cramps and my period ended last week. They were just cramps yesterday and today it was just occasional, plus my nausea started on and off again today. I'm not sure if I'm going to vomit or not but I really really don't want to. It's there any way to avoid it? How do I know if I'm in the clearing and I'm not gonna v*? ):
    Please answer asap

    Hi, BrittanieB! It looks like your thread got bumped down the list. I'm sorry about that, and I'm sorry you weren't feeling well. I hope you will come back and let us know how you're doing. For future reference, we never truly know if n* and pains will cause us to v* or not. With that said, I've heard that emetophobes have some mental ability to keep themselves from v*. I know ginger, peppermints, or antacid tablets soothe the tummy. Also, focusing on something other than your symptoms can help. Play a video game, listen to music, watch your favorite TV show, read a book, work on a craft, etc. When I have n* spells late at night, reading helps me.
