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!!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
