Overate A LOT and feel really sick

[bnb1031 0]

I just ate a huge lunch without thinking how much it was and I am so sick. I can't throw up and I think I would feel better if I could. I've got the slimeys something awful, my stomach is making horrible noises and I feel like I'm about to have horrible diarreah. I am 1 year post op. Yep...diarhea.

Ugh. I hate that feeling. I never can throw up anymore either... I just get the nasty mucus. I used to throw up pretty regularly before surgery since I am cursed w/migraines which come with nausea & my Migraine med (imitrex) makes me even more sick.. now I can NOT puke, even if I feel like I need to.

The only thing that makes me feel better - is to lay down and sleep/rest... usually subsides in about 2 hours. (Before surgery - when I ate too much.. I'd just be uncomfortable for 15 minutes and be fine). Hope you feel better soon.. Just take it easy for the rest of the day.

Thank you! I almost left work to do just that but I stuck it out and it has finally subsided. I'm sure at some point down the road the same thing will happen again but I am really going to try! Thanks for the support, we have to stick together!!

Oh no! I was wondering if you were at work. I *hate* when I am sick at work... it makes things 100x worse.

I am glad it finally got better and you didn't have to leave.

I wonder why we can no longer throw up anymore? I guess I am off to google that!

I’m waiting to see what you find out!!!

When we make a mistake we really pay for it. I guess it’s a way to make sure we don’t forget & don’t, or at least try not to, do it again.

One thing I’ve learnt along this journey is that I’m always learning about my eating habits. I guess what happened to you was an old habit of how you ate when socialising kicked in. Something similar happened to me when I accepted some birthday cake when it was passed to me last week. I had a forkful at my mouth before I remembered. I ended up having two bites of the sponge - it was crazy sweet to me. I was very glad I had no side effects. I just have to make sure that was an exception & I’m not letting an old habit return.

I hope you feel better soon.
