Hi everyone,

I've completely over done it this weekend and yesterday and woke up to sickness and stomach bug so haven't managed to keep any thing down all day :-(

I haven't taken any medication today as it will probably come back up so just wondering; should I try to take medication or is it safe to leave it for the day? Bearing in mind I have to take it with food!

Thanks Louise
Jane.

I would say yes take meds, better than no meds rather can staying off - unless it is anti tnfs and don't take when you are feeling unwell.

With painkillers, I eat something rather than nothing to line your tummy.

Have you rung the NHS number 111?

I've googled should I take my arthritis medication if I have vomited? It came up with various meds.

Hope you are feeling better soon.
Take care,
Jane

Thank you for your reply Jane. I've finally stopped being sick so have had a little something to eat & taken my morning medication so I have something in me :-) Louise.

Poor girl

Have to agree with Jane
Take the mess if you can
There are pain killers that are rougher on the tum so get the entric coated ones

Hope you feel better soon

Can you phone the hospital for advice? I know at my hospital the nurses are available on week day afternoons if I've got any questions. Good luck and hope u feel better soon xx
