I KNOW the issue here is anxiety, but please here me out before reminding me.
I have IBS and GERD. I get nausea all the time for both, and my IBS causes me to vomit probably an average of once every two months (tooorture). And I still live with my little siblings, who are in elementary school and bring home several bugs (gastrointestinal and otherwise) home all the time.
I've found that having a plan is the best thing for my phobia. I had a minor surgery a while back, and had about ten Zofran tablets. Just having them there, I could stop thinking about vomiting. And I was pretty good and using them only in emergencies. But, I had a two week stomach bug and finished them off, and now I constantly think about what would happen if I got a bad IBS attack, or if I get a stomach bug. I only take it if ginger capsules/candy didn't work, and in the case of the two-week bug, I did both together (sweet, sweet relief). I can distinguish between real nausea and anxiety nausea, so I don't take it unless there's a real need. I believe I have the self control to not abuse it. Especially since it's so expensive!
It really relieved my anxiety, until I'm at a place where I am ready to take on therapy (CBT). I am worried though, nearly panicked for whatever reason, that my doctor will not prescribe it. I don't want to lie to him, so I'm just asking everybody else's opinion on it. Thanks
