Is.....anti-nasaua medicine!!! So as some of you know, I have had the WORSE morning sickness in the last 2 weeks. **Warning: slightly gory** I have been throwing up daily anywhere from 2-5 times each time I throw up and I can't STAND it whatsoever. Who can though....so this morning, I ate breakfast and you guessed it started to feel icky, and then threw-up. So fun. NOT!!! I gave up, threw in the towel, called it quits. I am a quitter. I can accept it proudly too.
So after I waited 2 1/2 hours for my midwife to FINALLY call back (I took a nap in the middle of waiting), I got the call and it was a nurse who got some details and then said that the midwife would call back. About a half hour later the midwife Janice, finally called. She was music to my ears. We had a few options, over the counter options or DRUGS!!! Now I know I sound like a druggie but at this point I really don't care at all. So we talked for a bit and she determined that I would be best on the medication!! Thank goodness!! She called it in and I picked it up at Fred Meyer a few hours later.
Here's the crazy thing, John got home and I had done SO much more than normal such as the dishes (its been his job lately) and then started talking his ears off....he couldn't believe it. I am literally a different person (nausae related that is) than I was 10 hours ago. So even though I sound like a druggie and wanting my medication, I am now feeling 110% better than I did, I am not overwhelmed by smells right now and don't want to throw-up every time I smell something that bothers me.
The crazy part was that I am 13 1/2 weeks and this should be clearing up and its getting worse. No fun. Hopefully the drugs will help. The crazy thing the first thing in the directions is to take (if this is your situation of course) a half hour before chemotherapy, 1-2 hours before radiotherapy.....I was like great I am taking drugs that they give to cancer patients. As long as it works. So thought I would share the good news that the new best friend in my life is currently my nausea drugs!! Tomorrow is the true test to see how I fair. Keep your fingers crossed that I fair well. Hope you are all as well as I now feel!!
