chilo1 62 Posted April 24, 2011 OK so I ate quite a few peanut M&M's (used to be my favourites), maybe about 2 handsfull (easter treat to my children!) about 15 min later felt really ill, nauseous, tachicardic, dizzy,threw up, quite a bit of watery chocolate and then just gastric Fluid, but it felt horrendous, what I would describe as dumping, now still feel tachycardic and really dizzy so I had to come to lay in bed. I have a headache now as well, please think twice before indulging on your kids easter eggs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shanny 70 Posted April 24, 2011 Oh no! I will head the warning. My son gave me a little egg stuffed with Skittles in it. I think I'll pass on it. Hope you feel better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A couple handsful doesn't seem extreme to me when you're almost a year out. Have you had moderate amounts of sweets before and been okay? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have you had moderate amounts of sweets before and been okay? I don't really eat sweets that much,if I have a few sweets, maybe 3 or 4 I'm fine. A few weeks ago I was making a cake and just trying the mix and whipped cream had the same effect, not as bad as today though. I was just looking at the pack to see how much approx I had, it was prob about 60 gr (the small pack has 45 gr) so it was quite a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you think the hot weather might have had something to do with it. along with the sugar rush... It is soooo hot and sunny down here (that is not me complaining by the way) - but I have noticed that my fingers and ankles have swollen and earlier when I was digging in the garden I felt really light headed... Have you had enough fluids? Take it easy; you know where I am if you need a chat xx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
