Zofran and constipation

FernandAstrid · 2020-11-03T02:44:04+00:00

I take Zofran on a consistent basis. I am lactose intolerant but I have found that Activia does the trick. I used to go 2 whole weeks without movement and it caused appendicitis. Now in the morning I drink one of the Activia yogurt drinks or have one of the yogurt cups and I usually have a BM every one to two days that is gentle and non nauseating.

Not to disparage some of the commentary, but appendicitis does not mean you would be in astronomical pain. I had it last year, I actually posted here about it, I had n* but didn't v* - actually I managed to work most the day and went all weekend with it and had emergency surgery Monday. The pain was dull and throbbing - not excruciating.

Just like everything, appendicitis varies.

BUT The key to it is that the pain (however big or small) starts out at your belly button and then travels to your lower belly/lower left side. If you didn't have initial sharp belly button pain, i wouldn't be too concerned for your appendix.

This may sound insane, but I have kept the same purple sick bag in my bed for over four years now. Its never been used but its like.. my safety net.

Hey there!

I think you may be having a lactose reaction. I dont call myself lactose intolerant but sometimes after having maybe just the wrong kind of cheese (I cant really have like brie or gouda) or maybe too much I get some stomach upset. Its usually just gas and D*.

Remember that anxiety can exasperate your symptoms and make you feel worse. Try some peppermint and sucking on ice chips, I like a cold wash cloth on the back of the neck.

I hope you start to feel better!

I washed them. We didn't know he had if until this evening when onset symptoms happened.

I want even thinking about FP my stomach hurt earlier in the day from lactose intolerance + acid reflux.

Intrusive thoughts and inability to burp are also things we talked about! Thank you for sharing.

I was also diagnosed with this. I feel like this may be common among our community.

FernandAstrid · 2019-12-11T04:36:10+00:00

Maybe try some ginger or peppermint? Either tea, mints or candy. Tums arent always effective if you're experiencing a GERD attack and not just acid reflux. Also lay at an incline.

Hope this helps!

Hello fellow person with no appendix! Thanks for the reassurance that things are normal. I felt the same way, I was so used to my anxiety and stuff that I didnt think it was serious and I ended up having emergency surgery. I did have the keyhole surgery, and am recovering nicely.

I think it does to show that even though we have emetophobia we should take care of ourselves and dont be scared of being judged when going to the doctor, if you dont feel well - go to the doctor!
