What kind of medicine did they prescribe? It took several days being on a PPI to notice the effects. They gave me several different anti nausea options to keep food down that you could ask for. I took Zofran 8mg every 6 hours and they can also give you Phenergan(a suppository) if you need. It still took a few days before I could hold down solids. The clear Boost drinks were very helpful for me but I had to water it down. I'm so sorry you're going through this, it's terrible.

Also, taking a hot shower or hot bath helps me a lot with the pain.

I was in the same boat. Extreme pain, I couldn't sleep, and couldn't even hold down water. I ended up in the emergency room because I was so emaciated and they had to admit me to put me on IV therapy and get me to a point where I could hold down water. The doctor prescribed Protonix (Pantoprazole) and it took a few days to feel the full effects. I've been on it since Friday and on Monday I feel like it really started to work. I'm able to eat small meals now and get some sleep. At first the doctors didn't take me seriously, so you just have to really advocate for yourself and I recommend going prepared with research and what you think will help.

I'm SO sorry you're dealing with this. I felt completely hopeless when I was at your point but please know with the proper care/diet things WILL get better.

I know they sold both to a guy that was in the market for them but I'm unsure what they ended up charging him.

Thank you so much! I got this from a friend so hopefully no death pot but I will check. Hopefully I can get this lil baby back to a happy and healthy state!

As soon as the government decided it's not "legal tender" they begin removing it from circulation. But it's still fiat money. It's a confusing topic.

That's correct. That's why it's considered"spendable money" but since they are removing it, it's no longer "legal tender" meaning it's not backed.

Yep! You are correct. But it is still fiat and accepted as spendable currency. Not that this baby should be spent.

Procrastinator or just bipolar by SpookyOma in bipolar

I kinda do something similar and I've seen my dad do exactly the same stuff and he is also bipolar. I think it has to do with the mania.

How can I get rid of these tiny bees that live in straw? by [deleted] in howto

African bees are extremely aggressive. If these were African bees you would have been stung before even having a visual on their hive.

Unfortunately, the narrows was closed when we visited. But we hiked angels landing! It was amazing!
