Vomiting/digestive Issues

[cmd]

When I'm extremely hyper aroused, I vomit in the morning and develop digestive issues later in the day. (It makes me extra glorious to be around.)

It used to happen during the traumatic situations, to the point where I was on a fairly restricted easy-to-vomit and easy-to-digest diet, but with recent turns of events, I'm back to vomiting in the am/digestive distress in the pm. It's awful and I have no idea how to combat it.

Does anyone else deal with this?

Yes I most certainly have cmd, and my condolences. :(

Just speaking for myself, it got to the point where I could mostly only tolerate cream of wheat, and yogurt helped. Ginger in any form and ice cubes, also plain cake (white) actually helps. (I know that sounds suspicious.. :) ) Of course, many recommend nutritional drinks, I find the puddings are easier (smaller), but the strong taste can in-and-of-itself contribute.

Gravol for the nausea.

From what you described, it sounds (possibly- hugely?) related to anxiety- how is your breathing, and do you have small things you can do to lower the stress? I don't know if mine was the same (eventually I could feel a fairly large mass up high but under my left rib cage, it was there for ages and 'grew' with stress and at those times the symptoms increased)- it's WAY better now however (and after Idk, a year or more the mass disappeared)- so there is hope.

Also, do you have a bad back/ neck/ shoulder injuries? They contribute, as do migraines. Obviously as does the stress. If there is anything 'gentle' to loosen the muscles, it may be helpful (definitely not harmful).

I certainly hope you get relief very very soon.

I do get chronic migraines and I have chronic pain/nervous system-pain disorder (RSD) that are no doubt contributing to this.

I've been doing lavender/epsom salt baths plus moist heat wraps, but those can only do so much.

I used to suffer really badly when my PTSD was at its worst :( I lost a stone in a week as couldn't eat, & 3more over the 4months I was signed off sick :(

Gp put me on omeprazole which reduces stomach acid which has helped. But still suffer from IBS. Don't know if it's just side effect from the various medications I'm on, but it's horrid horrid! :( Boo!!

Hugs CMD... I LOVE that you can still make a joke about it 'makes me extra glorious to be around', you are a legend. I have tummy upsets and diahorrea when I am anxious. I have lost 15 kilos but 7 in the last 2 months while the PTSD has been bad. Strong tastes made me feel nauseous. I found I could eat more at night though.
