I was sooooooooooooo dehydrated that I was admitted yesterday to get fluids. I have what the call hyperemesis. Translation: morning sickness on steroids.
 
The good news is that I was able to have another photo shoot. Punkin is looking good.

They asked a TON of questions and one of them was if I had thoughts of hurting myself or others since I am on anti-depressants. I looked at the intern and said I have pregnancy hormones in my veins, what do you think? She just laughed and moved on.

LOL Sorry, laughing about the pregnancy hormones thing! I have the hyperemesis gravidarum too. Sucks. But I'm on Zofran now. I had to be in the ER last week one night (can't even remember which night!) getting IV fluids myself. And it was COLD IV fluid so I froze the whole night while I was getting them. Lovely day. I hope you start feeling better!

LOL It's true! Hubby is lucky I haven't beat him at times. I was on sublingual Zofran and it just wasn't working since I didn't take them. Go figure. LOL I am on regular Zofran pills and after the IV Zofran I am doing better. My hand froze while they pumped the first bag in. Had to get a second blanket to just cover my hand.

That IV Zofran is GOD! As soon as they stuck that in my IV they walked me to the bathroom and while I was in the bathroom it started working taking away the nausea and I was like, "Ahhhhhhh" Relief never felt so good!

Yeah I had to get 2 blankets too and get this......the Dr. actually brought the 1st one and actually covered me up with it!! What Dr. does that??? I was impressed! By the end of the night, I had every body part, including my head under those blankets.......and I was STILL freezing!

I hope you have relief now.

I have had ER docs do it cause the nurse is busy. BUT that was at the best ER I have EVER been to. I am feeling better. Except for the hormone thing. Still want to beat the hubby. *sigh*

when I was so nauseous I was drinking ICE COLD Gatorade G2. The orange flavor. Not sure what it was but if your pouch will tolerate it give it a whirl! Oh and feel better!!

I can't have the G2. Not cause of the pouch but because of the sweetener. I sucked back so much regular ginger ale in the hospital it wasn't funny.
