4 days without my meds. Still queasy, I can barely hold down some broth.
I'm getting manic. It isn't too bad - yet, but I need to whack it. That means eating, and medication, but I am still queasy.
I can't take the chance of vomiting again, for one, it can retrigger a migraine. It's happened before. I need to be able to work, the next couple days.
I need to eat, but I can't rush this. I took a calculated risk, taking the Excedrin earlier, but I couldn't chance another migraine. So my irritated stomach needs some more time to recover.
I keep thinking, try just one saltine, but I don't dare. I am iffy enough with the beef broth. I don't even want to drink anything, I don't dare eat anything.
I will just have to wait, which is OK. I'm not hungry - that's how I know it will be safe to eat - I'll get hungry. That has worked for me for 44 years. It's the food-pushers, like Ron used to be, who cause problems. They tell me to eat before I'm ready and I get sick again.
And I can't have that.

Ginger does not work for you ? I can not remember if you have used it or not? I keep candy ginger around for nausea and it works like a dream for me. Hopefully this is the last day this has been a long stretch for you and I am so sorry!
I thought I had some honey ginger crystals (sold at Asian import store). Turns out I have the Chrysanthemum (I think I spelled it OK?) ones. Good for colds, not good for stomach upset.
Still no appetite so I am waiting on eating. I am only down 5 pounds and I have plenty to spare. I feel good otherwise except for being tired so I will stick with what works.
