I thought those were anti diareah(sp) not anti nausea?
Dramine is for motion sickness and Benadryl is usually for allergies, never heard it used for nausea before.
Tsimi I would really love to know what the Tylenol product you speak of is. I take so damned many pills at one time that they often make me nauseaous and I wind up taking even more pills, Compazine, and/or Tums to stop it. Sometimes just the Compazine will work but the combo always has, so far.
The Compazine Suppositories ALWAYS work but using them is disgusting and they're expensive as hell to boot. Just be sure to read the directions because the method of application is wierd.
Also taking as much pain medication, let alone all the other meds, as I do the bowel problems Munk speaks of is always a problem,
"I haven't covered old mans guts in this thread but will get to that.
It remains an old man's priviledge to complain of bowel movements and interupted digestion.
I must be heading for the Damned bowl of steamed prunes."
Since Munk has given me permission to speak thereof, emphasis mine....
I sometimes just eat the dried prunes, don't particularly like 'em steamed, long story, but I like most any dried fruit.
I take the Walmart Equate brand of Sennosides, 25 mg and the same Equate brand of stool softeners, Docusulate(sp?) something or other.
From 3-5 of the first one and 6 of the second.
Keeps me going you might say.
Some of the things that I have trouble eating anymore is Beans, of any kind and, Onions, cooked in any manner.
Cooked Cabbage is starting to be a problem. A goodly amount of Beano helps to correct the problem, 6 - 8 of them chewed
thoroughly.
And I can't eat the hot stuff I used to be able to, not because of gut problems, but because of a mouth that has gotten really sensitive to hot peppers over the years.
There's a brand of canned jalepenos I like really well that I can still eat. I'd have to get up and go look to see what they are called, but I do remember they are called, "Tamed Jalepenos" under the brand name.
Still pretty warm, just not mouth blistering.
I'll also vote for the Ginger, both MamaV and the root. I'd still do the pot but it is illegal and worse it gives me the munchies like crazy.
I can't afford to be busted with it nor can I afford to gain anymore weight.:grumpy:
One nice thing about the pot and me..... It calmed my temper down to a low hiss and what I would normally fight over I just laughed at. The damned stuff does make you weird!!!!
