I was fine earlier except a bit of a headache but this last hour i have been unable to stop throwing up, i have a foul taste in my mouth (not from the sick) my stomach really hurts and the world is spinning.

I am on my period so i am not preganant.

A bug?

ConnorTraceptive · 30/08/2007 16:16

sounds like a bug, rest and fluids my love. Off to the docs if it doesn't improve.

something you ate that's off, normally reacts quickly like this. What have you eaten recently?

dustystar · 30/08/2007 16:16

Do you use tampons?

Charlee · 30/08/2007 16:18

dustystar may have a point. You can get TSS from tampons. I am sure you change it regularly, but I think there can be TSS risks even if you do follow that advice to change it every few hours.

dustystar · 30/08/2007 16:20

I know this is a bit personal but is it long since you last changed it?

Charlee · 30/08/2007 16:21

I cange it regurly i don't use them all the time just when im out indoors and in the night i use sanitary towels.

According to this, it isn't always how often you change it, because it is due to bacteria that can be present in the vagina. SA.

dustystar · 30/08/2007 16:22

Might be as well to use STs for now just to be sure.

HorseyWoman · 30/08/2007 16:22

If you feel this ill you need to get checked out, or at least phone nhs direct. You probably have a bug, though, tbh.

ConnorTraceptive · 30/08/2007 16:23

Didn't read bit about period. Give NHS direct a call just to be safe they are very good
