Had it for about 11 years now, but last few it's just taking the piss outta me. https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/cyclical-vomiting-syndrome/
normally take the piss. But reading the link that sounds horrible. being sick brings up acid from stomach so guess it’s murder on the pipes(can’t think of medical term) do they not try and use dietician to see if it’s a food trigger etc or you just ride them out?
****, that's not good. Spent the weekend at a fishing competition with a fella who has something similar. He'd eat his food for the taste only knowing most of it is going down the bog 10 mins later.
Just have to ride it out tbh. But these last 2 years my episodes last 5/10 days a time. So it's fukeries
Yeh, I'll be sick for say 4days straight and then I have to eat summin, knowing it'll come up, just crave nutrition after a while so has to be done.
Esophagus, it would be procedure to do a endoscopy, flexible camera down your throat. The more you are sick, the more you irritate it, endless cycle.
Had one of those. To make sure it wasn't my diary tract or some ****. It wasn't. Took a biopsy too. Had a lot of new found respect for porn stars after that I can tell you
If you're being sick as often as you are, surprised you don't have to go to hospital and get put on a drip. Not that you'd want to go anywhere near a hospital at the mo. Medication can also be a trigger, but I've never seen you mention meds on here, so I guessed that's not a problem. I doubt your smokes help though. Migraine can be a trigger. Just make sure you drink plenty of water.
Ive done all that hospital on the drip thing so many times when I first had it years back mate, there's literally nothing they can do at the hospital I can't do at home (sip water) and I'm just more uncomfortable there than at home so I literally don't bother anymore. I dont actually have anything that triggers it apart from drinking alcohol, and even then it's not certain I'll have any episodes after that but if I wanted to trigger it I could drink on an empty stomach and I'd be sure to pay for it, big reason why I've knocked alcohol on the head bar a special occasion now. Thinng is mate I can just be sitting there fine one minute then my belly feels weird, my breathing starts getting panty and I feel out of breath and than bam I know what's comin. All in the space of 3/5mins that'll happen, absolutely out of nowhere sometimes. If Im at home at that time I can get in a really hot shower and sit under it which seems to sometimes stop it sometimes. Nothing else has ever seemed to help bar that. I dont actually take any meds for it cos all I've ever been given is anti nausea tabs and they don't work on me, I've had at least 4 types now. Like i said tho it's getting to ridiculous levels recently so I've booked an appointment for the Dr's as I was suggested soen medicine for it that I'll chat to them about and see what that say. And on the ganja.... When I get that out of breath **** weed is literally the only thing that will calm my breathing enough for me to sleep while I'm like that.. Cannabis is definitely not my trigger or agrivates it in any way, in fact it helps during episodes.
Sounds all a bit ****te for you mate. You are right about hospitals and caring for yourself at home, drinking/sipping water to keep yourself hydrated. On the topic of meds, I meant things such as anti inflammatory's are notorious for that sort of condition, but that's not something you take, otherwise there's a med they can give you to protect your stomach. Good decision in booking to speak to your doctor. Lots of rest by the sounds of it.
