throwing up

Body: 

I just wanted to thank you all for the discussion on how to best throw up- I would never have even thought about it - but thank goodness you all did because I just got over the most violent bout of it all and I knew just how to protect my prolapses. and they are no worse today!!! I love you all.

hey alemama:

you know, it's funny. when i first came to this site -- right when i was diagnosed -- i thought about what would happen if i got a stomach virus -- not that i've had one in YEARS! -- and maybe i should ask just in case. well, i thought that was kind of ridiculous and how likely would THAT be?

well, ahem, just weeks later, as you saw, i posted that question to christine because i did, in fact, get one. CRAZY! and, though i didn't have the info when i really needed it in the accute phase of the virus, the way i handled it seemed fine and didn't shift the prolapses at all and NOW i know what i should do if it happens again. (and, knock wood it won't anytime soon...it was pretty miserable.)

glad my puking could be of some use to someone, though! :)

how are you feeling now? hope you're taking care of yourself.

where is the info about vomiting?! i am highly susceptible to stomach upset & came very close to puking over the weekend. i have a little cough & that's hard enough!

thanks in advance,

hey mary ann:

it was a post i started about two weeks ago in the pelvic health section called something like "stomach virus/food poisoning help." something like that. it's on the second page. hope you don't need it any time soon but it's good to have the info handy.
