I always joked for YEARS that Tums is “nausea chalk” as a silly little joke.
I knew that Tums are made up of calcium carbonate, plus some sweeteners and flavorings and color.
Regular chalk is just straight up calcium carbonate. So…
Tums ARE nausea chalk!!!!

How are you feeling after your glut piggy. That enormous meal just sinking through your intestines, ruining your digestive system even further. Feeling good and sick and bloated still even a few days later? Its what you deserve and its how you should feel at all times.
im gonna be real. it took me a while to reply to this ask cause everytime i red it i had to gontouch myself🥺🥴
one ofnthe things that i've been really really into since i started this is tummy issues, uncomfortableness and indigestion. i am becomming addicted to feeling sick and bloated and having my instestines constantly stretched and achy. i loke ti think my body is absorbing more of what i eat and not wasting anything this way💦🥵 its so fucking hot and i love how harsh my feeders are with me.
feel free to add fuel to the fire. at this point im not sure i can stop it

Good things for nausea that one probably has at home in the middle of the night that isn't nausea pills or something? Treatment is hard, I'm tired of feeling so sick and seriously need to sleep. I ate today more, but now I regret it.

A special message for ppl with tummy issues:
From someone who's had untreated tummy issues her entire life, PLEASE go see a doctor and tell them what's bothering you! If the doctor doesn't believe you please try to find one that does, no matter how long it takes. I know this part can be frustrating, but it's so so so necessary.
Untreated tummy issues can lead to even more serious issues like infection, inflammation, and more. Even if what you are experiencing cannot be easily seen, consistently documenting your symptoms can help a doctor diagnose and treat you.
Nobody should have to live in a constant state of discomfort or pain

Tis true because we're all probably gluten sensitive and also remember colonialism impacted south asian dietary issues (ex the Bengal famine)

Anyways. PSA to anyone who has had COVID and now going to the bathroom is a traumatic and painful experience:
Okay so I was embarrassed to say this sort of thing because ew potty issues, but I have ended up hospitalized way too many times in my life to ignore my colon. It’s almost always the colon for me. My colon is hit or miss, mostly miss, and I had my first (hopefully last) colonoscopy at… idk 22?? 23 maybe.
So I recently told my GP, best GP ever who cares about both my pain levels and mental health, which is awesome, that going to the bathroom was becoming a trauma for me. Like it’s full on giving me nerves and anxiety when I feel the cramps.
She said oh no. I told her it’s been like this since I got COVID several months ago (getting worse over time I mean not me ignoring a major issue for 4 months) and it suddenly clicked in her and she had an entire list of things for me to get, and telling me about how COVID triggered a… allergy response. Like an immune response that is mainly attacking your bowels (half the trauma is because your bowels are soooooo inflamed that anything moving in there is hell) and it lingers. COVID hasn’t been around long enough for us to know how long it lingers but we know it’s at least a few months with it slowly getting worse so that’s not hopeful.
So this allergy response is attacking your bowels, the most likely place to still have traces of COVID or maybe it’s all out and your body just doesn’t know how to stop again. Either way.
- Metamucil, it’s an orange flavor fiber drink that is not made from corn fiber (my worst enemy of the past few years has been getting enough fiber and protein since I’m allergic to corn and it’s EVERYWHERE) and so far has turned my bowel movements from sharp and pointy to, in her own words, fluffy and unobtrusive. I haven’t had a cramp when it’s time to go potty rn, in days. I’ve only been using it since Wednesday this last week. I’m shooketh at the lack of cramps. Cramps has been my normal ‘go potty now’ indicator for years, and no cramps. Wow. I’m defeating IBS lmao. Can be taken up to 3 times a day. Doesn’t make your bowel movements turn liquid like miralax.
- Omega 3 fish oil. Taking daily fish oil can not only improve your focus (it’s an ADHD trick actually, if your focus can be helped with something less powerful than meth, my parents had me on it for a while as a kid and I remember being very calm) but it’s overall good for you, and it reduces inflammation.
- Turmeric. It’s used for reducing inflammation (see how she’s got me on multiple things to reduce inflammation instead of just one? Btw, she isn’t telling me to stop taking pain meds, I actually asked for help that would help me take less pain meds cause I’m taking too many of them and I can develop an allergy to them if I take too many) and I’ve been using it for joint pain for years tbh. I get inflamed joints because my craft of choice involves pinching fibers and pulling them to make yarn, which can put pressure on your joints. Also my back swells like a balloon when I get my period. It helps a lot.
- Calm & Relax, a mixture of Ashwagandha and Magnesium. These relax your muscles. Take them before bed because they help you calm down to sleep, reduce any cramping you’ll have in the night, and genuinely help you reduce movement while sleeping to actually get good sleep. Istg I have been thriving off these the past few days. I feel better.
Anyways. Take the drugs. COVID is nerfing us all directly up the ass and it’s painful, fight back with meds that aren’t just 4 ibuprofen every 8 hours, because that shit catches up with you and it hurts too. Also it just helps reduce the inflammation and pain, but doesn’t actually help your tummy function. This stuff does. I’m replacing my miralax stock with Metamucil. They also got a store brand which is only like 12$ which is great.
