Damage might have been done

[cornerofmadness]

So after throwing up at 1 AM as I was getting ready for bed I made a choice to not continue at the moment on this med. My heart burn is so bad and the nausea rampant that there was no way to keep on to 'see if I adjust'. It took until 10 tonight to not be nauseated but my stomach hurts so badly that I was honestly weighing going to the ER to be sure it's not a bleeding ulcer. I chose not to because a) I doubt they'd do anything other than to say see a GI doc (like 4 months from now) b) I didn't throw up blood, just parts of lunch from 13 hours before getting sick. A stomach should empty in 2 hours I still might go to urgent care if this pain and heart burn continue. I am worried that the med made my stomach issues worse.

Saw the allergist today. No one took my blood pressure. I should have asked them to but I was still SO sick at that point (he saw it immediately) I'm still light headed (another reasons to fear a bleed but as I said, there aren't signs of one so I'm not hitting the panic button yet). Got my allergy pills redone.

Went to get meds in Jackson, wanted to do the Jackson Apple fest. went to the library to see the quilt part of it and...they didn't do it this year. Aw. Then realized the building they usually do the craft vendors in is being torn down and I didn't know where they'd be now and also realized I was way too light headed to walk blocks to this so I came home. Sigh.

Sorry, the med had bad side effects.

thanks

I'm sorry the meds made you so sick. I am not surprised you still had food in your stomach; that slow digestion is horrible! I hope it hasn't made your stomach issues worse and that you don't have a bleeding ulcer.

Bummer you had to miss the Apple fest.

[cornerofmadness]

yeah the gastric paresis got amped up. I do think the stomach irritation is going to be a problem

eh, I don't miss much with that fest. I only go because it's local.

Ugh...sorry you're having such a hard time with the meds :(

[cornerofmadness]

thanks

Sorry it's been so rough for you health-wise. Meds can definitely mess with your stomach. Really hope it settled a bit.

[cornerofmadness]

thanks. It's slowly getting better
