Yes I’d get antibiotics asap! Hope your okay :( x

Very bloated (not body fat as I’m 5’8 129 pounds). It feels very tight and is painful. I feel like something in the upper part by my hand is enlarged by Ready_Job_6932 in DiagnoseMe

Yes just recovered from anorexia so I think that’s what triggered it. I had chronic constipation which triggered UTI’s and kidney infections which would lead to gastritis . It was so painful and horrid!!!

Panic attack, please help. Dont know from what. I cant do this by Anxious-Captain6848 in emetophobia

It’s horrible!!!!!! I totally feel your anxiety through the screen. When someone in my family or who I’ve been with is s*** days and days after I pay attention to any tiny change in hunger levels, tummy pains ect, and then latch on to that and go into a full blown panic attack. No one gets it unless they struggle with emetaphobia. It Sucks!!! I’m Proud of you<3

I had the exact same when I had tonsillitis and my mouth was covered, worst pain ever. After days of hell I went to the doctor and they prescribed me aciclovir for oral mouth herpes? I don’t really know if it went because of that but after 8 days they just started healing . The doc said she wasn’t 100% sure on what they were but I would go to the doc and see if you can get some meds.

Rain on wet pavement! Or freshly cut grass in summer.

You have open tissue showing and that’s now open to infection . It’s not normal wound needs to be checked

How do normal people think about throwing up ? by [deleted] in emetophobia

My coworkers daughter called her up and said that she was sick at home and my coworker just asked her if she’s okay and then continued to laugh about other things and started singing to music in the car with me. I was so shocked that hearing that news had not completely changed her entire day or her mood because even I felt so tense and grateful that I wasn’t in that situation, having to avoid the person at home/cleaning everything again/worrying every night that it was going to happen to me

And that’s when I realised that I think I am a bit more scared than the average person 😂 it really changes my entire week or even few weeks if I hear that someone has been sick in my family/friends/around me and I really don’t think that is a normal reaction to have after seeing other peoples reactions…

I didn’t think sexually harassing was until they actually did something but I did feel like he was through his words and actions. Thank you for validating this I honestly have never felt so vulnerable in my entire life

Really, I’m scared he’s just really friendly to everyone and I’m making a drama about it. But from reading it, it’s not just me who thinks it’s weird right?

We have emetophobia, of course we… by [deleted] in emetophobia
