Not been well this week. Vomiting most days at least once and felt rough. Think (not sure though) its a bug. But, then over the last 24 hours it's gone from throwing up undigested food to not holding anything down, like an actual stomach bug.
I have a poorly lower back. On long term pain meds for this. Largely this week I have managed to hold down some of my meds, only throwing up, or missing the odd dose. However, have not held anything down all day, just thrown up my one attempt at taking meds. Last meds that I took and that stayed down was 8pm last night.
My back pain has been mostly managed (i.e. not gone, but can cope), but, with no meds, combined with the position that vomiting puts my back in being awful for it, the pain is increasing.
Not to mention that if I don't take anything soon, I will also probably start to get withdrawal symptoms as these are meds that need to be stopped slowly, not suddenly.
Should I call out of hours to get anti-sickness meds? I really would prefer for my back pain to not spiral out of control on top of the effects of the vomiting on my body, I feel rough enough as it is.
