Not Feeling Well



Recommended Posts

I swallowed a whole Multivitamin today which I normally don't do and I've been feeling really sick all day. Any suggestions? Has this happened to anyone before? Please help!

Try something warm to make it disolve faster. I do not encourge this, but it is super easy to vomit if it has not been too long since you swallowed it. I do not make it a practice to do this but every now and then as I try new stuff and it does not agree I will. Now don't everyone rush to tell me how dangerous it is, I have only done it 2 or 3 times in 6 months.

Deek- i'm not sure what you are saying is unsafe? Drinking something warm makes perfect sense.

Oh, I reread it. You are suggesting vomiting. I think it may be too late.

to vomit on purpose is what I was referring as unsafe. I do thinking drinking something warm should be the first choice

Something similar happemed to me last night. I took my pills too close together and the last one that was a gel one, kinda got stuck and I did go throw becasue I had the earge. I HATE to throw up! But it was acidic. Just walk it off, it helps when I just walk and walk. I cut my pills in half because for whatever reason I have trouble swallowing some of them. space them out and take little sips of Water. Hope it helps!

might help to try and eat something to absorb some of it. Vitamins have always made me sick. I try taking them with food and it helps.

I had to take 4 huge antibiotics for dental work. My tummy hurt so much I ate a bowl of mashed potatoes!! I decided I needed something to absorb the pills and carbs be damned. It worked!!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
