Being sick everyday for 4 weeks

As the title says. Ive been sick everyday for the last 4 weeks, usually just a little. This time it was quite a bit. Not sure why I was sick as not eaten nice lunch time. I have a doctor's appointment on the 19th for something else. Do I wait till then and talk about it adding to a list of things I have to talk to them about or call 111 in the morning? I'm not pregnant. Pregnancy tests are negative so not sure why I'm being sick. Dont usually get stomach pains with the sickness and nausea but tonight I'm in a fair bit of pain right in the centre of my stomach.

Wonder why they were given it too me at the same time at hospital then and why they've stated on my discharge papers to take them at the same time

Honestly no idea.
Could you go and have a chat with your local pharmacist?
Take your discharge letter and all your medication with you.
They usually have a consulting room where you can chat privately.
I don't think you are going to get better if the meds are not being taken correctly.

Respectfully - why are you wasting time on MN asking this question?

You've been vomiting incessantly, hospitalised, given the wrong meds in hospital, now discharged still feeling shite and given a load of meds that again a quick Google shows is being incorrectly administered.

And your response is 'seems so'.

I don't understand why you're asking strangers online rather than getting back to the pharmacy/GP/hospital or wherever else

You can post a pic of the medication instructions if you want, block out your name but definitely speak to your Dr or pharmacist because what you say doesn't make sense

MissMoneyFairy · 25/08/2026 12:35

I also don't understand why you were on blood thinners if there was an initial suspicion of a bleed

Great
I'm unclear why you didn't say that from the start rather than asking strangers on MN but takes all sorts I guess.

That's good, ask for the scan and xray results too, what the first and last blood tests showed and what's the plan forward

The OP is unwell, or had you not read that detail? Perhaps cut her some slack.
It takes all sorts indeed.

What's the point in being snidey, op isnt well so you may to offer support.

I hope your gp appointment helps to clarify things and you have a plan going forward.
Your gp might ask you to keep a diary of times of meals/ medication/ feeling sick/pain/ vomiting/ bowel movements. Even if they don't, it is worth doing over the next few weeks because if you record everything you eat and drink you might pinpoint anything that causes symptoms. That could be a lightbulb moment and help you to manage better.

Not sure to be honest. The only thing I can think of is my cat but I wouldn't have thought it would be because of her.
