| A cheerful place to eat helped |
These suggestions come from reference material I found online, things given to me by the nurse practitioner, and from my own experience. I wrote this for a friend's sister and thought I might need it and others might find it helpful, so here it is.
1. Nausea Meds -Get prescription medication from her doctor to help with nausea. It can really help. Take your anti-nausea medication as prescribed. Medications work differently so you may need several medications to find a solution. I took -
Ondansetron (also gave during surgery to keep me from getting sick)
Prochlorperazine (Compazine)
2. Don't smell the food any longer than it takes to eat it - It helped me (and still does) not to smell the food. I ate outside when I could. Garrett cooked while I stayed in another room. Eating in a room near a window helped instead of the smell remaining in the room where I spent most of my time in. Garrett opened windows so the smell of the food would go away quickly. If any smell makes you sick then try cool foods.
