can i take anything to stop me feeling nauseous? [desperate]

[Tutter]

have felt pukey on and off for a couple of days

no, i'm not pg

anti-histamines can help i think, and flat coke.

Ginger is supposed to be good - can you manage ginger biscuits, or ginger tea? Even ginger ale.

Go to the chemist and ask for Aludrox. It is a chalky type of liquid stuff, but it works.

ok

have taken milk of magnesia

feel no better yet

dh at a black tie do tonight - am loatrhed to ask himj to miss it

Metaclopramide is a good anti sickness and anti nausea drug. Have you been to docs?

If you are sure you are not pg (or bfeeding) then there are a few drugs you can take. Would think you could get one of the docs appts that they hold back for emergencies today and get a prescription.

ok

have made appt for 4:30

am bfing, so not sure if i'll be able to take antyhing

Avomine mihght be a good one to suggest to the GP as its used in rpegnancy so unlikely to be dangerous when BF I would imagine, and has bena round for years (also availbale over the counter, so a pharmacist should be able to check if OK for you)- its always been my med of chocie whilst PG

ah

have just vommited, spectacularly

i guess it's the v+d bug ds1 had last week

will keep doc appt in case there's a drug i can take - just to get through the night (night bfs when nauseous, ugh)

vomitted?

boiled lemonade, my mums swears by it! cooled of course

I take pepto bismol, which I find helps.

Best not to take anti-vomiting drugs as they might prolong your illness. If you can bear to drink Dioralyte you should do this to help your system cope, and otherwise drink lots of weak squash or diluted juice - flat liquids. Don't eat anything at all until you've been feeling completely better for 12 hours. You need to starve the bugs into submission Your doctor will advise you best anyway, but hope you feel better soon.

ugh

after much searching the doc found me something i could take whiule bfing

drove around 3 chemists - none had it in stock

so have to face a night of feeliung like this

have run out of coke - do you think san pellegrino limonata will work? [ponce]
