Question: How can I throw up to make myself feel better? I have food poisoning...?
Answers:
eech, i had that like 4 years ago and i was scared serious for my life. but i was in the bed and not willing to get up and socialize though. it's intense, the most painful pain EVER covering your back and abdomen ENTIRELY. i had puked 3 times but it did not help AT ALL. it even made it worse cuz it's acid that goes up where it's not really supposed to.
but see, my girlfriend called that line where nurses answer (where i'm from it's called info-sante... francophone dominant area), and she gave me some advice, this was it:
-put cold stuff on you abdomen
-if you DO puke, boil water, make a drink half of that water, half orange juice and some salt, shake it. and take 2-3 sips every 30 mins or so. that's so you don't dyhydrate yourself.
i didn't have orange juice so she said that i could put sugar instead. NOT HALF A DRINK FULL OF SUGAR, but like 2 spoons of sugar. don't forget you 2 spoons of salt.... (of course it depends on the size of the drink you're making).
but are you sure that it's really food poisioning? sometimes it's just something you ate that you have a hard time digesting or a minor food allergy.
take care.
Forcing yourself to throw up is a last course of action. I recommend trying to go to the toilet to get it out using some very mild laxative of some sort.
If you need help urgently go to your doctor as soon as possible and he may give you a tiny dosage of EPICAC, which (unexpectantly) makes you throw up very quickly. Use this as a LAST RESORT only because throwing up with EPICAC WILL HURT a LOT more than it hurts now.
Also, if you don't KNOW it's food poisoning then don't assume it is because throwing up with a medical treatment will upset your body a lot.
tooth brush! =]
buliemaaaaa
Tickle your uvula. This is the gland that hangs down at the back of your mouth.
shove a toothbrush down your throat.
