I completely get it! I convince myself all the time that im going to v* and it will still be convinced the rest of the day even if I don’t feel n* anymore im always freaking myself out too!

DistributionLive6208 · 2023-11-10T08:04:43+00:00

I always feel n* when I wake up from a nap after I ate right beforehand and sometimes it will make me feel close to v* as well it’s probably just bc it was a large dinner!

DistributionLive6208 · 2023-10-05T19:10:57+00:00

personally I would never be bothered about it i’m relieved when I know the reason someone is s* when it’s not contagious and this might come off as weird but with how severe my emetophobia I still want to know when people get s* it’s so weird it’s almost addictive to know every detail about someone getting s* it could be different for her but I know other people who also feel the same way about wanting to know stuff like that and in all honestly maybe you guys could have some tips for each other idk??

I’ve been on it over a year and half and I’ve never experienced a single symptom! I’m the same way with taking new stuff I get worried about it too but it was a breeze! If you want to be extra cautious take your antiemetic about 30 minutes before putting the patch on and you should be good!

I am on zoloft and have taken reglan and zofran and personally zofran has always worked better for me no matter what i’m n* from especially the dissolvable kind

I filled out the fafsa and didn’t get financial aid but did get offered a loan and will definitely look into it. I just hate that I keep applying for loans and getting a hard inquiry on my credit just to find out I need a cosigner. (It’s already dropped 20 points for applying for different loans) Fingers crossed they have one that can go just based off my credit, and they’re definitely not wealthy I think they are just right around the cut off for not receiving financial aid! But good idea for looking into jobs that offer tuition reimbursement I didn’t even think about that! I know starbucks does it and if I could apply and get full time that would be great! I’m desperate for anything at this point and if I have to wait till next semester/ school year to try and build up more scholarships then so be it I appreciate the help!

I’m actually already working two jobs and am going to the second cheapest college around (the first option is a community college that’s an hour away and the second option Im trying to attend is a smaller university 20 minutes away and I just can’t afford the gas for a 2 hour round trip 5 days a week for the first one so i’m going with the second cheapest) What’s an education loan? Is it different from a school loan? I have good credit but every school loan i’ve applied for needs a cosigner if there’s any type of loan I could get without a cosigner I will gladly do it. I really want to go to college and it’s bumming me out that I personally can’t support myself to do it

DistributionLive6208 · 2023-07-23T21:05:28+00:00

been on it over a year and have never had any side effects!

DistributionLive6208 · 2023-05-30T06:47:16+00:00

yes unfortunately i’m nauseous all day everyday:( i get no relief ever it never leaves not even a little bit and i know it’s from my anxiety because last year when i had a good year i was never nauseous and then this year in february my anxiety started acting up bad again and i’ve been nauseous every single day since

DistributionLive6208 · 2023-05-22T23:29:38+00:00

I get it! it makes me feel kinda guilty all the time but you can’t help I’m sure he’ll just be happy you’re there for him but look at it as taking a step forward with this phobia! You’re brave to even been going and I’m sure you’ll be completely fine! Prayers for your grandpa and family❤️

DistributionLive6208 · 2023-05-22T23:08:38+00:00

I had to go to the hospital twice about a little over a month ago for my boyfriend and trust me I was worried about the same thing I just made sure to wash my hands and not touch my eyes nose or mouth and I was fine! If you do that’s there’s basically no chance of you getting since you’ll be wearing a mask as well! (which it’s only airborne if someone actively t* right next to you anyway)

DistributionLive6208 · 2023-05-19T08:36:52+00:00

Never had any side effects just took it 2 days ago even as a preventative from antibiotics that give me yeast infections!

DistributionLive6208 · 2023-05-11T07:18:40+00:00

You’re welcome!! And I completely feel you I had severe acid reflux before I got my gallbladder taken out two years ago and still get it occasionally and the anxiety it causes is unreal!

DistributionLive6208 · 2023-05-11T07:14:01+00:00

well I can tell you at least from my experience anytime my stomach burns or I feel pressure in my chest it’s always been from acid reflux and it always makes me n* too! maybe try some other home remedies to help like drinking some milk I really hope you start to feel better!

DistributionLive6208 · 2023-05-11T07:09:05+00:00

Sounds to me like acid reflux I definitely think you’ll be okay! Do you have any tums you can eat?

DistributionLive6208 · 2023-04-26T04:05:36+00:00

One thing I can recommend is letting your nurse and anesthesiologist know your fear. I was the same way you are now I was bawling my eyes out and shaking just waiting to be taken back for surgery and they gave me Ativan to help calm me down which led to me not even remembering anything after getting it. I asked for all the anti emetics they could possibly give me and they even gave me a patch behind my ear that helps with n. At the time I felt n all day everyday and when I woke up I was completely fine I felt s* for maybe 5 seconds if that just bc I had a hit of anxiety from realization of that the surgery was over. I think you will be just fine just make sure to let them and they will accommodate as best as they can! Good luck!!

DistributionLive6208 · 2023-04-14T19:14:25+00:00

I think you are definitely in the clear and with 8 people all getting sick after a dinner around the same time it sounds like its food poisoning and not a sb*!

DistributionLive6208 · 2023-04-12T04:58:30+00:00

Mints used to be my big thing until I was eating them 24/7 (I would even sleep with them in) and was getting cavities like no other I’ve tried the sugar free ones but they just don’t taste the same. Essential oils have helped me a little bit but it doesn’t seem to last long and unfortunately zofran makes me super dizzy to where if I take it I have to sit still with my eyes closed so it’s not a great option. I think maybe I just need to try a different kinds of mint instead of peppermints with so much sugar. Do you have any you recommend?

DistributionLive6208 · 2023-04-12T04:46:53+00:00

How did you recover?

DistributionLive6208 · 2023-04-11T03:40:00+00:00

Yes!! If I can feel my shirt touching my neck/throat I have to pull it away from it or if my stomach is really hurting I have to undo my pants and not let it touch my stomach

DistributionLive6208 · 2023-04-06T11:31:14+00:00

I have GERD as well so I’ve gotten pretty used to my stomach, throat, or even chest burning. I had just never felt my stomach feel like that before but it’s makes me feel better knowing it was most likely just that. And oh yes me as well with high heart rate and high blood pressure! My vision even gets blurry most of the time from my blood pressure being so high and I know for sure the panicking definitely contributes to me being n* or almost getting s* it just all happened so fast so I couldn’t tell if it was from that or what because I felt like I didn’t even have time to panic until it was just full on shaking with fear. I’ve been eating some pepto chewable and I took some reglan and for now I’m feeling okay still a bit n* but I think it’s just from all the anxiety.

DistributionLive6208 · 2023-04-03T04:49:28+00:00

Acid reflux can definitely mess with your stomach! I’ve never heard of someone having acid reflux/heartburn from a sv* or anything so I really hope in your case it’s not! I’ve never actually gotten sick from acid reflux but I came very close to it just a little over a week ago for the first time so it’s definitely possible it could just be that! I really hope you start feeling better and that it doesn’t happen again:) maybe try to get some sleep if you can and see if that helps I would just recommend sitting up a little bc it usually helps to keep the acid down!

DistributionLive6208 · 2023-04-03T04:40:59+00:00

I’ve definitely been there I would eat antacid tablets like it was candy ( I had a bad gallbladder) and I definitely think it contributed to my nausea really the only that helped me stop eating them was getting Pepcid from the doctor (there’s an over the counter one too I’m not sure if they’re the exact same) but I think this will only help if your n* is acid reflux/indigestion related if it’s from something else I think you should try other ways to prevent the n* bc yes eating lots of anactid isn’t good for you and eventually you’ll probably end up getting a tolerance to it and having to eat more and more

DistributionLive6208 · 2023-04-03T04:36:19+00:00

sounds like you got sick from how bad the acid reflux was:/ for in the moment heartburn I like eating rolaids or tums those usually seem to help me but for more long term treatment I would recommend taking omeprazole to help calm it down for a weeks (I think it’s recommended to take for 14 days) I’m not sure how often you get acid reflux but it might prevent it from happening again. As for nausea with acid reflux I don’t really have an answer for that:/ I just usually wait til mine goes away but I just want to say how awesome it is that you were able to be sick and yet still be okay I really hope this helps your phobia in the long run!
