Ok This is Kinda Gross But I Need Health Advice

[cybergirly]

Half of the people in my office have been sick this week with some kind of stomach flu.

 

[Nora]

Have you taken anything at all? For your other ailments or for this?

Is it that bloated "omg I can't believe I ate the whole cheesecake" feeling?

 

[freakygirl]

You are pregnant

*shakes head* Kids these days..

Ok.. *wonders if I should PM instead* Nope.. I'll ask ya here.. ummm have you gone poo poo today? Since you ate? Maybe I should be professional and ask if you have had a bowel movement. If not, when was the last time?


*if you prefer to answer in PM you can*

It could be stress. Or, it could be the headaches. I would guess it's a combination of many things and lavy needs a vacation.

Post nasal drip causing nausea?

You may feel not hungry only because you are having irriation to your stomach from the icky mucous?

Well, I am no doctor.


If you feel you need to vomit, do it. Even if it is a struggle, there is something making you sick and it is natural to want to get it out... Let it.

You will feel better.

 

[seXieleXie]

it could be the heavyness of the pasta and the acidity of the sauce that is making you feel ill. do you have peptobismo (sp?) or anything like that? or some antacids?

if you do, take that and have some water (but not too cold, that could make you feel worse). see how you feel after that.

There is a nasty nasty virus going around the Austin area carried by a mostiquto.

when i was a kid and i'd tell my dad that my tummy hurt he'd always ask.."did you drink any water?"

if i said yes..he'd say that was the problem...i drank it to fast..and if i said no...he'd say..well..go drink some..and see if that helps...

i don't know where he got his medical degree

i hope you feel better

 

[lilminx]

Lavy, I felt that way when I had that virus a few weeks ago. I was having, uh, other stomach problems with it though. you don't seem to be having those problems.

 

[Silverlily]

two pieces of advice

1. a little pepto never hurt, use the pills, skip the nasty liquid stuff

2. be careful what you ask freakygurl.

 

[freakygirl]

Lavy is such a lady isn't she?

Well you aren't constipated (which is a good thing). I think it might be that you have gas.

You could

1. take a warm bath and just relax
2. rub your tummy in a clock wise motion.. firmly but not hard. (this moves undigested food and any gas trapped to where it needs to go)
3. take an antacid

or all of the above.

But don't force yourself to eat if you don't feel like it.

Lavy Dear, I've had major stomach problems that.

Took me away from the boards as well as any outside activities. So I know how awful the feelings can be. ( Especially the bloating ) Are you stressed at all Hon'? Yes, the combinations of foods may be a part of it. So please keep a log of what you eat. What may be causing the bloating may be excess air getting into your lungs as a result of hyperventilating. Are you worrying about what may be upsetting you. This causes you to hyperventilate and have the excess gas. Try to relax Hon'. I hope I've made sense and helped.


Take Care Lavy

It Does Not Sound Like West Nile Virus.

I Hope You Don't Barf And That You Feel Better Soon Lavender

 

[lickerish]

Gawd, I've been through this all weekend, migraines from hell, sinus pressure, lots of nose blowing, and nausea.

If you've already 'gone potty' and that wasn't the problem.. then just bite the bullet and puke it up already. Your body is telling you what it needs, and preventing it- just for the sake of not puking- isn't helping. I hate puking, but sometimes ya just gotta do what ya gotta do.

Hope you feel better lavylove, this bug sucks.

[Debbie]

Yes. Puking it up is what I needed. I have a feeling I'll be doing this on and off all night.

I hate puking. Hate it. Hate it. Hate it.

blech, I know what you mean. Sorry.
When I get sinus I can't tolerate dairy products at all.
Not that they like me at the best of times.
I hope you feel better soon.

 

[lilminx]

Yes. Puking it up is what I needed. I have a feeling I'll be doing this on and off all night.

I hate puking. Hate it. Hate it. Hate it.

I hate it too, hon. It always leaves me with a feeling of weakness, but sometimes it just has to happen. I hope you feel better now, and that it isn't a virus.

 

[hatara]

Just make sure you get plenty of rest lavender and don't strain yourself too much. Stay away from the dairy products for a little bit and give your stomach a rest.

Feel better soon.
