Anyone please help me. I have a huge fear of vomiting. I've no alka seltzer or anything. I had a headache come on and I took myself to bed. My eyes close. But I cannot fall asleep. I feel so sick if I lay on my side because it makes me feel worse and that's the easiest way to fall asleep.
I haven't properly been sick for almost 10 years now and right now I'm so anxious that I will be sick.
You may have migrane. The best thing to do is to make sure your in a dark room. Take iberprofen every 4 hours. Get some ice and a towel and put it on your head to ease pain. Sip as much water as you can or even better of you like coffee as the caffeine and ease the nausea feeling and stop you feeling as sick. Make sure you keep electronic devices brightness low as it can hurt your eyes more and irritate the headache and make you feel more sick. Try your best to get some sleep maybe get a hor water bottle too. x
