can't keep anything down

sushi&wasabi · April 2011

It was bad yesterday--but about 10x worse this morning. I couldn't even keep down water this morning! I am getting really dehydrated though, so I asked H to get me some pedialite. Anyone have advise on how to get it down and keep it down? Should I just take a little bit at a time? This sucks...I am so hungry and just want to be healthy for this upcoming IVF cycle. And of course, I haven't been this sick in forever! Go figure....

If you cant keep anything down go to an after hours clinic or ER- you probably need IV fluids and IV meds.

When I was sick and wound up in the hospital I had been chugging gatorade and water like crazy and still ended up being so severely dehydrated I got shocky. And I wasn't even vomiting.

I was really worried it was going to get to that. Luckily, after a long nap, I tried again with pedialite and it has been 4 hours since the first 20 oz. I'm onto the 2nd set of 20oz now and have also managed to eat rice and toast. I hope I got through the worst of it. This freaking sucks.

I hope you are feeling better.

Take little sips.

Start with an ice cube. If you can keep that down, go to pedialyte or gatorade.
