IT'S NAUSEATED NOT NAUSEOUS FOR FUCK'S SAKE

sorry, that was a bit strident.

when i had an ulcer, i would get sharp stomach pains when i didn't eat for a few hours.

pregnant.

usage Those who insist that nauseous can properly be used only in sense 1 and that in sense 2 it is an error for nauseated are mistaken. Current evidence shows these facts: nauseous is most frequently used to mean physically affected with nausea, usually after a linking verb such as feel or become; figurative use is quite a bit less frequent. Use of nauseous in sense 1 is much more often figurative than literal, and this use appears to be losing ground to nauseating. Nauseated is used more widely than nauseous in sense 2.

wow i screwed that up

In bell's defense, there are times when eating makes me feel nauseated AND (kind of as a result) nauseous.

lately, i feel all vommy when trying to eat steamed greens (spinach, collard greens, etc.), which is strange b/c i LOVE them. i blame the new medicine i'm taking. obv, i have no clue if the two are related, but that's the story i'm sticking with.

enbb otm

Also I like how this thread is gonna be like GO ON, WHATEVER, DIE OF GASTROENTERITIS OR WHATEVER, WHO CARES, WE HAVE WORD USAGE ISSUES TO DISCUSS

wow i screwed that up

What, correcting your S.O.'s grammar in public? No, you did that fine.

xpost - wait, I have that same issue with steamed greens lately! I keep wondering if it's some kind of seasonal crappy-greens thing I've never noticed before -- I keep getting spinach or chard and finding them just nasty.

Oh c'mon, you're a lady so stomach issues must mean you're pregnant, right?! ;-)

Seriously though that sucks. Feeling nauseous/nauseated is one of the worst feelings ever.

do you get heartburn a lot?

If this has been 2-3 days or more, DOCTOR

Sometimes ya just gotta be prescriptive.

This is reflux. See a doctor.

when there is a doubt about which usage may or may not be faultless, go conservative.

that's all I'm sayin'

xpost - weird! the spinach i steamed was supposedly fresh (from godknowswhere), and the greens were on new year's day, when having hoppin' johns and collard greens (complete with hog jowl bits) and i couldn't even finish them, probably much to the dismay of the person who served them to me. maybe it is seasonal! i don't remember having this problem before, though.

do you still have an appendix?

also: are you taking any vitamins or new meds? that may factor in there. . .

nauseous is most frequently used to mean physically affected with nausea

but frequency doesn't mean that it's right! this is one of those usage issues that bugs me all out of proportion (see also: "impact on").

yes! so true!

it's been since wednesday. i will go to the doctor soon!

when there is a doubt about which usage may or may not be faultless, go conservative.

boooooooooring

language is a living thing!

anyway, ulcers don't cause nausea in my experience. it's more of a sharp pain as jordan said, plus a heartburn/bloated feeling.

yah usage is king u pedants

but i feel bad getting in to this argument again on this thread

hope u feel better bell!

In the meantime (doctor-wise) I would suggest eating lots of bananas / yogurt / fiber for a while, all of which kinda give your digestive system rest and healing time

(oh, also, greenswise: I think people/places have a tendency in winter to serve them absolutely limp and drowning in butter, which is often a lot more gross-making than something a bit drier and crisper)

also yes i hope you feel better bell labs

thanks guys. also sorry for offending the grammar contingent :(

i have a lifetime supply of prevacid from my dr if you end up needing something like that, btw.

Worst game show ever

heartburn sucks.

bell, I've been similarly afflicted this week. I blamed it on too much fat/fried stuff, thinking gall bladder trouble. Oatmeal for breakfast today, plain toast and tea and boiled chicken for lunch, a pear. Still queasy, but nothing like the past few days. Good luck getting it sorted - feel better soon.

bell, maybe you could try the ladies' yogurt, activia or some shit. isn't that stuff supposed to sort out a lady's digestive system? also, yes! feel better!

t/s: "lady yogurt" versus "man yogurt"

i used to get nauseous (headaches, stomach ache, barfiness, total fatigue) whenever i ate when i was in my mid-20s and it basically came down to 'bodies change' :/ - so i did all this research into nutrition and talked to doctor/nurses and it ended up coming down to diet modification for me, starting with cutting out sugar cold-turkey and cutting back on carbs in general and watching fat intake (tho it was never that high to begin with) but all not to an extreme extent. ate more salad (tho not spinach - spinach makes me feel weird too - hm = i have read it's a histamine-related thing). nausea after eating went away within a week or two. sort of still eat like that but not in a militant way. tho proper breakfast hasn't appealed to me (to point of ugh nausea) in about 5 months for reasons unknown. i don't know, bodies do change, it's true.

xpost
don't eat yogurt with sugar in it

things rrrobyn doesn't like: sugar, robot sex, fun

man yogurt

ew

bell, are you the one that works above 14th st? you can get some great seasonal greek-style yogurts here - http://www.healthylivingnyc.com/find-it/business/763/3

mangurt

i might try getting digestive enzymes from the health food store. which should do the same stuff as yogurts. and oatmeal is the only thing so far that hasn't made me feel disgusting. prevacid is otc right?

yonigurt with lingamberries
(xp)

sorry

ooh i want ligonberries

nabisco not otm except yeah i wld put comma btwn robots and sex

wait wait wait dude KOMBUCHA YEAH

SKAMBUCHA

prevacid is by prescription, as far as i know.

this has been my life since the age of twelve. the only way to forestall tummy pain is to eat small itty bites of food approximately 390255531 times per day.

xpost - Won't hurt, but the digestive enzymes are a little more for the intestines, whereas post-eating nausea is more coming from the stomach part of the process, no? I was suggesting bananas/yogurt/fiber (and yeah, oatmeal too) mostly because they're like zero work, so your whole digestive system gets to kick back and repair itself, or at least not mess with you until you can see a doc.

rrrobyn with the funnies

ugh remy that sounds terrible :(
i'll put bananas on my shopping list.

I had some issues a while back where the options were narrowing toward, umm, lie in a hospital on an IV, eating nothing, for a couple days, or kinda fake the same thing at home with ba/yo/rice/fiber/etc. -- four banana-filled days later, all good. Sorry, I'm a crazy banana pitchman now.

Hopefully you'll start feeling better over the weekend, and not have to see a doctor for it!

fiber can make things worse, though, too. trying to figure out stomach/gi stuff is really tricky.

yep
ugh

there are some docs that will tell you the opposite advice of what nabisco's just said :/

What does it mean when you get debilitating back pain the day after you drink alcohol?

it means your kidneys are busted?

i will post more to this thread when i am not at work. i feel like i might have a lock on terrible undiagnosed and painful g.i. issues, excepting possibly curtis and his crohns (/jaymc).

Here is where doctors and I agree: you should listen to doctors, and not my random hard-on for bananas

get well soon bell_labs

yes, srsly, i hope you figure it out, l!

i wld listen to both doctors and bananas

i posted this on another thread somewhere re: gastro issues - it may or may not work for you but it made me feel better this summer when hit by heat waves and certain food sensitivities - site is cheesy btw but hey - http://www.breakingtheviciouscycle.info/

Things I didn't need to know about, a list:

1. nabisco's banana fetish

Dude, in the story of my digestive crises, the part where I fall in love with bananas is, sadly, by FAR the least gross chapter

i have all of these things

http://smilies.newcastlebeats.com/smilies/bananallama.gif

2. nabisco's scat fetish

lock it

except that, xxxp

my friend has cancer

what do i do?

Stop bimbling?

xpost - pardon me, crisis, singular

that's right, ladeez, i can digest food again, all sexy-like

HI DERE, your dick schtick is YAWN!

Whereas yours is FANCY!

haha i dont even get that

That was a reference to Hanley's "My penis is fancy" quote from way back in the day; Tad would have been all over that shit if he were here.

You jumped on the Tami ref, tho, so still: RESPECT

that was just for you, baby.

^^ lives in bell_labs's stomach

Cant you get spewy after eating if your liver is in a bad way? Or is it gall bladder - one or the other.

Feeling nauseous >>> feeling nauseated.

tru dat

oh i get the nauseous/nauseated difference now
meh

feeling a lot better, nabisco was probably right about the bananas

i can't bring myself to say "otm"

not being able to eat = congratulations, you have nearly successfully drank yourself to death!
