I just wanted to let y'all know I made it through the night

I wasn't going to call 911 and go in an ambulance and none of my friends were available so I hunkered down and knuckled through the night. I finally stopped puking about 3:00 a.m. I'm still taking it easy and at least I'm holding my water down now. I'm going to take another nap and then try to eat something and I'm never taking that stupid medicine again! I told the doctor's office this morning that they can fuck themselves and I would rather not be sick to my stomach permanently! Anyways, I love you guys I'm sorry I concerned everyone I'll keep you posted...

I had a violent reaction to a medication like that once years ago. It’s very frightening and painful. Get some crackers and ginger ale.

But I will be attempting that next time I try to eat something. I'm going to take a quick nap I've been sleeping in like 2 hour increments so I'm pretty wiped

And I don't blame her, she was just trying to help by using something new in the arsenal. Everybody reacts to these medications differently and I tend to be very sensitive to most meds. My list of allergies is pretty damn long

I've got Applebee's on doordash cute up I know it doesn't sound good but I know that they're steamed chicken and broccoli and mashed potatoes are really good for an iffy stomach. It was one of my go-to's after I had surgery so I've got it ready to go I just haven't taken the plunge and hit the button yet

I've never been so excited to have an appetite in my life!
