cordila Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Hi guys!I replied to another post about a fine tremor but wanted to reach out to you for help under a separate post. I'm lying in bed after suffering last night through the worst tremors ever. I only get them really badly when I am also very nauseated (which I was last night). I have been under a lot of stress the last two weeks, the barometric pressure dropped a lot yesterday and I couldn't get my BP above 80/43. That was during the day. Suddenly at night I developed full on tremors with horrifying nausea.Aside: my nausea is rarely ever accompanied with vomiting. Does anyone else have this? I'd say the ration is 1,000/1.Anyway, I have been very bad in forgetting to take my B1 cream, which has, for the most part, kept the tremors at bay. During these last 2 weeks I forget to take it and last night I sure paid the price.The problem is...all day today I've been in bed with huge abdominal pain. It sort of feels like someone has it in a vice. It feels gripped. I can't eat any food and this far have not been able to have any water. I popped a ginger ale about an hour ago and have been taking the babiest of sips. I'm not even 1/10th of the way into the can.Does anyone have any tips for both the tremors (when they are in the throws of them) and/or the aftermath. I KNOW I need to drink in order to stay out of the hospital but my tummy just does not want to at all!Help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramakentesh Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Well if its the POTS tremors your talking about i generally just ride them out or take a beta blocker. Being walm helps me as I usually feel super cold when this happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EarthMother Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Ice chips for dehydrationI also use a small spray bottle to cool off and when very nauseas I'll spray that in my mouth too to keep getting at least some fluids.Peppermint tea.Peppermint candy.Ginger root tea.Aloe vera papya juiceHot packs or ice packs for the tremors -- sometimes both! One on the soles of my feet and one on my abs.Hope this passes soon, sweetie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cordila Posted April 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 EarthMother - You use ice packs too?! I thought I was the only one. My dr's can never explain to me why it makes me feel better to ice my stomach when I am really nauseated (although the other day with the tremors it didn't help one bit). I find it to be such a strange thing. The only thing I can think of is that it must numb the nerve impulses or something. Do you have any clue why it feels good?And good tip on the hot pack. I'll do that next time. wb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelika_23 Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 Just a thought, are you sure you aren't getting the flu or something on top of your "normal" issues? I know when I get an illness on top of my normal stuff, it sure messes me up good.Angela Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
