My dog had something similar too when he was little. He couldn't keep anything down, not water or plain rice or anything. So I took him to the vet and he had a fever, so they dosed him up and I had...

I think if you were unable to burp as a baby, then chances are you have an extremely strong or tight lower esophagus sphincter- the one at the top of your stomach that opens to allow food in and gas...

I had an abdominal ct 2 years ago. I didn't have a milky drink, it was a watery drink that tasted of aniseed. By the way, the milky drink doesn't actually contain milk I don't think, it just looks...

I have Crohn's and a typical bathroom visit is maybe 15 minutes, 10 of which I am actually pooping! So yeah, I always make sure I have plenty of reading material in there.

On the bright side, at...

Just wanted to say, my boyfriend managed to quit after over 10 years by using one of those electronic cigarettes. He (and I) have always enjoyed the act of smoking, so finding something that...

I was actually pretty proud of myself at the weekend- my sister in law said she wasn't feeling great, so I asked her and she said her stomach felt off and she probably had what her little girl had...

Mine is worst in situations where I feel trapped. So transportation is bad, also home is bad for me. I only panic when someone else is sick. But if someone is sick at my house, I can't avoid the area...

Definitely chugging the water on top of post nasal drip. It makes your stomach all sloshy! And well done for hanging around to make sure she's OK! I would have found someone else to wait for her :)

I am a teaching assistant, and I find I cope Ok at work. My kids are aged 4-7, and yes they sometimes do get sick in the classroom. But it isn't my job to clean it up, I will make some excuse like...

Why can't you do a colonoscopy? It's a piece of cake! And it could see what the problem is and make you feel so much better!

I think that vegans get ill from accidentally eating meat because a) meat is hard to digest (I'm pretty sure it takes different enzymes in the digestive system), and b) it's the disgust factor for...

I took ferrous sulphate for 3 months because I had iron deficiency anaemia. Apart from turning my poo black, I had no side effects. And I have Crohn's so you'd think if anyone was going to get side...

Just wanted today, though it may be tempting I think telling him 'no, you won't be sick' could make things worse.

Firstly, he may start to believe that you are preventing him from being sick...

There is also a free app (on iPhone) called forum runner that says it's compatible with vBulletin forums (which this one is) so you could try that.

There is already an app called tapatalk or something like that, not sure if it's compatible with this forum or not though.

Back to the point about people not going to work etc when they're sick. It doesn't bother me too much when adults go to work sick (unless they're telling me all the gory details!) because I figure if...

I was told by a friend to tumble dry (without washing) your duvet every so often, the heat freshens it and supposedly kills dust mites and stuff. And you don't have to wait yonks for it to dry.

I put 'never' because I have literally only taken them once in my life, and that was when I was in hospital with my Crohn's and a nurse gave it me. It was cyclizine (or something like that).

I think it's to do with food, in the mornings your digestive system is more or less empty, as you haven't eaten for a while. Then you eat through the day which puts more and more pressure on your...

It doesn't sound like an sv to me. With it happening every evening for 4 days, I think if it were an sv then you would have either vomited by now, or the virus would be passing and you would be on...

I eat the reduced food all the time! In fact I often stock up and freeze it to be defrosted and eaten another day. I have never gotten sick from it.

And yes, fish will smell fishy lol!

I'm 26, and 20 years ago when I was a young girl, there were definately stomach bugs that went round, I remember several children vomiting at school and my brother always seemed to be doing it! And...

If I really truly feel nauseous, I sit or lie as still as possible trying not to do anything that might make me feel worse!

Just out of interest, how would conspiracy theories work in the UK, where healthcare is free at the point of need so every sick person actually costs them money?

Are any of your friends actually old enough to drink? Because a big party like that and they're bound to ask for ID, they're pretty strict these days!
