  Dry Heaves
« on: July 17, 2008, 01:33:04 PM » by Leat
Last night after supper I got sick out of the blue.  I felt like I had heart burn so I drank a little water with baking soda stirred in. Well my dinner came up a while later and I thought I would feel better after that.  Was I ever wrong!   I had dry heaves off and on all night until 4:30 am.  I have never felt this bad before.  I felt like I was having contractions in my chest and stomach.  It would build up and I would run to the toilet. At least with baby contractions I knew I would be rewarded at the end.lol  I was also burning up and then freezing. 

Today I feel weak but so thankful the heaves stopped.  I have been munching on saltines off and on.

I am clueless as to what brought this on.

Any advice on what I could have done to shorten the length and severity?

Food poisoning?
Pregnancy?
Stomach bug?
Allergy to some sort of food?
That's all I can think of...  Undecided

I would guess that the dry heaves occurred because your immune system was not yet satisfied that it had removed whatever threat or toxin that was bothering you and since you had no food left to come up, you heaved "fruitlessly".  Tongue

I would recommend you read this thread for info on causes and remedies.

Thanks for the link HB.  I will read through it.

I have a little more energy but not even close to 100 percent yet.  Today I feel tired all the time and slightly queasy but not enough to worry about running to the bathroom.   I've been sipping on some tea and that helps some.  Definitely not pregnant. I guess I was lucky enough to catch a bug somewhere. Sad.
