Nausea

[cjsmith]

Insomnia may bite the big one, but I am actually hating the nausea more. This morning I've spent about an hour and a half concentrating hard on not losing breakfast. Some days I win that battle; some days I lose. Today I think I am going to win. (How long does a pregnant woman have morning sickness? String it together and I think I'm working on maybe child number three about now.) The evening battles aren't so bad if I can manage to knock myself out with sleeping pills before the worst of it hits. If I can't do that, well, some days I lose. At least when I lose, the battle is OVER and I can climb into bed.

TWO DAYS until I get to see my doctor and tell her that Quality Of Life is going to trump this whole treatment concept. My appointment is Thursday.

Since it doesn't seem to be doing anything, I don't see any reason to make myself miserable.

Nausea is the pits. I wish you didn't have to deal with it. Heck, I wish you could just stop a particular medication. That sucks.

At least I don't have it every day. The prospect of that makes my bones ache.

And at least mine are short bouts. Most of my day is fine. Gah, now I sound like a total whiner. :-) Honestly, most of my day IS fine.

Goodness, you don't sound like a whiner! I am impressed with how long you've stuck this out and tried this treatment, even given how unpleasant it is. You impress me. I just wish there were good results for you.
