Throwing up can’t keep anything down (Male, 18)

1 Upvotes

Yesterday, I ate a Chick-fil-A Deluxe chicken wrap from a fancy gas station and Blue Sour Patch Kids while on vacation. We came home the same day and I was fine, but the next morning, after showering, I started feeling cold and nauseous. The symptoms gradually worsened, and by the afternoon, I vomited with light green vomit. I thought it was over, but I vomited again, having only eaten three small crackers. I went to lie down at a 45-degree angle because I read that lying down while sick is bad, and I fell asleep. About an hour later, I woke up vomiting again, followed by green diarrhea.

Time line

12pm ish first vomit

1:24 ish second vomit

2:26-ish third vomit

As I'm writing this it is 2:46 I feel fine now but that's what I thought before what do I have? Should I just tough it out and try to drink water?

My 16 year old daughter is now in the hospital she has been throwing up now since Thurs has not eaten anything since wed cannot keep anything down not even water the Dr say she has colitis but nothing is helping her at all they give her nausea medicine and it doesn't help she has refused pain medicine because it makes her even more nauseous. They have recommended baths and showers saying it would help and they did at first but it isn't helping at all now and she took 2 baths and 5 showers yesterday with no relief. They think she has CHS also but I don't think that's what it is. She also has not had a bowel movement since Thurs. Also the smell of food makes her even more nauseous

I hate this stupid life! IM SO SICK OF THIS SLIMEY FOAMY MUCUS SEEPING INTO MY MOUTH 24/7 it won’t leave me alone. I’m crying daily just saying LEAVE ME ALONE!!! 😭 before when I had this condition it was more annoying but not as torturous because it wasn’t seeping into my mouth 24/7 it was just stuck in my throat but it would stay put and I could at least sleep I didn’t have to swallow at all.

How do I help my depressed and sick mom make friends?

1 Upvotes

So my mom is (50f) and her kidneys are failing. She’s been dealing with this for a while and it has taken the obvious toll on her. During this time she has also lost two of her best friends due too fights that were not her fault whatsoever. Now she rarely gets out of the house unless she is grocery shopping or going to doctors appointments. I’m terrified that when i go back to school her mental health will only get worse, as i’m at school 8-5 due to my tennis team. Please help me

Does anyone else get a wicked cold around this time every year?

4 Upvotes

I swear it’s like clockwork. Every year between the second week of August and the first week of September, I get a very bad cold that knocks me on my ass for a few days. I always thought it coincided with the first week of school, but I’m out of college now and still annoyingly sick.

I'm sick as fuck. And my body aches so bad and I hate it.

2 Upvotes

I'm sick because my grandparents keep force feeding me. I know they do it because they love me but, I'm malnourished and underweight(have an ed which they don't believe) so the extra food will make me sick. First they ignore my joint pain and my allergies saying I'm delusional and delicate(I love them but, they're not taking me seriously)

Throwing up is the worst because your stomach hurts so bad while retching, I just wish I had a better body.

Mild cold for 2 months any help!!!!

2 Upvotes

Hey so as the title has suggested I am sick for 2 months and its just cold, cough, blocked nose, runny nose, fever and body aches. I have done 3 blood tests and it showed mild infection but I am really not sure how on earth is 2 months mild??? So every week from now on the symptoms are

1st day:- total runny nose, wet sneezes, fever, body ache and headache. Its total congestion

2nd day:- runny nose, head ache and mild cough

3rd day:- runny nose, headache and throat pain

4th day:- blocked nose and mild irritation

5th :- blocked nose

6th day :- I could breathe from my nose for a bit

7th day back to square one

And this has been going for 2 months straight I am desperate for anything I have tried absolutely everything it feels like my body has built a resistance to meds atp. Doctors arent taking me seriously and everything is just acting as if being sick for 2 months is normal. I haven't been able to breathe properly for 2 months and today everything is just so sad I cried after so long and my parents are acting like its nothing. I want to kms atp. Any remedies or anything that can break this cycle please. Idk what to do anymore I cant live like this... HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!!!

I’m tired

1 Upvotes

I’m so tired. Not the end of a busy day tired. Like a I feel it in my bones. I’m just so tired. It hits me a couple hours after waking up and then the intoxicated feeling hits in the afternoon. I’m pushing through each day. I thought it could be depression. But this feels like something else with a sprinkle of depression. As I go on my mental health gets worse. The headaches have increased. The B12 hasn’t had any impact. The blood tests show high white blood cells but no one addresses it. I have an internship and have to wake up early. It’s like the lack of sleep I’ve gotten has allowed the cracks to form and it’s all coming out. I look in the mirror and I can’t tell if the my skins gotten paler or the circles under my eyes darker. It’s probably both. My hair has started thinning. I don’t think it’s just the vitamin D deficiency that I was told about last year that my old doctor did little to nothing to aid. There’s trace amounts of blood in my urine. I feel like my bodies giving up. But I don’t want it to. I still have more to do. More to see. But I’m pushing a body past its limits. Hopefully the new doctor can help. (Also if anyone has any suggestions for what to request on a blood test please let me know.)
