M/S help.. when to call the doctor?

So I know that I have mentioned it on here before, but I have severe m/s and have been prescribed zofran.  I have taken it for 2 days now and still can't keep much, if anything at all down.  I don't know if it takes a while for the medication to really work, or if the zofran just doesn't work for me.  I don't know how to tell if I am too dehydrated and need to be on an IV.  I have an u/s on the 12th but don't see the nurse or doctor until the 18th.

    To be honest, if it were me, I would have called the doctor or gone to emergency by now.  If you truly are not keeping anything down, and haven't been able to for a day or two, I would definitely be concerned about dehydration!  At the very least, call the doctor and tell them the situation!  I hope you start feeling better soon!

    I posted this same thing yesterday. I have been taking zofran for a week and have been getting worse. I can't even hold down water. I'm waited for my OB to call and I have an appointment Friday. He said i might have hyperemis gradsomething one of the girls on here also said the same thing before I talk to my OB

    Oh I am so sorry!  Hyperesmesis is the WORST.  I survived four hyperemesis pregnancies.  The only way the medicine would help me was in the IV.  So I had a pic line with a backpack for the IV I needed 24 hours a day. 

    Definitely call your doctor tomorrow.  If you are feeling too weak, get to the ER for a few bags of fluids.  It helps a ton.

    Oh and water is the most nauseating drink when you are that sick so try different things but for some reason crushed ice helps.  And try for teaspoon at a time.

    Wish you weren't so sick.  All of you.  It is pure misery.
