Vomiting

[ivoryrain]

I had to leave my lab early because I vomited twice in the bathroom. I came home and dry heaved at least 3 times in maybe 2 minutes. I know vomiting is a symptom of HSV and side effect of Aciclovir, but is this something I should go to the doctor for? I've felt nauseated for about a week and a half off and on. My boyfriend is at work, so I'm dealing with this by myself and I'm just miserable because I don't think I can even get up off the bathroom floor long enough to get a drink.

 

Is this relatively common? I do tend to overwork my body because I'm a work-a-holic and school-a-holic lol. Does anyone have any tips for nausea from HSV/Aciclovir? I plan on getting some rest if my stomach will calm down. I told my boyfriend to bring home some crackers and ginger ale and I plan on calling to get an anti-nausea medicine filled, but I don't think I can even drive myself to pick it up without throwing up. Feeling pretty discouraged.

How long have u been on acyclovir?

 

I dont think vommiting is caused by h..

 

Maybe u are just worked up and honestly have a flu rather than this being h

Talk to ur pharmacist or doc about it

I've been on them since Friday, but I've also been on so many meds the past week and a half that maybe my body just can't handle it.

 

I do have H, though - positive culture, lesions, etc. I wish it were just the flu :P

 

Could be stress. Idk. It was all water and yogurt that came up, so maybe I drank too much water (I rarely drank water before.) I feel better after resting some, but still kinda nauseated. I'm going to try to eat some strawberries.

I would go to your Dr if it continues. My guess is either you have flu on top of all this or that your anxiety is causing your stomach to be particularly sensitive. People sometimes get nausea with the meds but not from Herpes to my knowledge.
