I'm going out tonight but I've got diarrhea?

[Anonymous]

I have been looking forward to this day for over a week. First we're going drinking, afterwards I'm going to sleep at my boyfriend's house. Just one problem: I woke up in so much pain today, spending a lot of time in the bathroom, sweating like hell and feeling nauseous. It's way better now but I don't know what I can expect. My tummy is still hurting. And I do really want to go out tonight and to be honest, I don't want to settle with just 2 drinks. What do I do?

stay in.. this stuff spreads, & it'll dehydrate you more, with alcohol. You don't want die/end up in hospital do you? - you need to rest & drink fluids with a good movie in bed, & some soup. sod what people think.. you're human, you get sick unexpected like everyone else. You aren't allowed in work with it, or anywhere... so... stay in. Plenty other nights to go out.

Plus you're under 18, & sleeping at your boyfriends? :/ how old do you think you are?

Wear a diaper and carry air freshner.

I'm just playing. To be honest with you, if you're really sick, you may have to cancel your plans for tonight. Just to avoid embarrassing situations. It may suck but better safe then sorry.

True, but I do want to go. I mean, how could I even explain why I wouldn't be coming anymore

Say you're really sick. That you may possibly have a stomach virus.

this is probably my favorite question I've read on here..
just postpone it! you need to take care of yourself! diarrhea dehydrates you and so does alcohol. so probably shouldn't go out tonight! sorry sis :(

There are drugs you can buy over the counter that should fix your problem in minutes.
Do not drink. You are too young to drink legally anyway.
Call you boyfriend and tell him that you are sick and what is wrong. Stay home and recover.

I live in holland, I'm almost 17, legal age to drink is 18, don't worry about that.

[Asker]

Does weed help?

[cth96190]

@Asker Weed? OMG no! Google Scholar the words 'marihuana psychosis' and trawl through medical journals for peer-reviewed articles about the brain damage caused by marihuana, as well as the enormous number of carcinogens in it.

[Asker]

Weed isn't as bad as you think it is, trust me. I live in the 'weed country' and I've never had any problems with it. The pychosis is just for people who can easily get that, but thank you for your answer:)

Sounds like you may have mild food poisoning. it's a bit late now, but I'd go and take 2-3 pills of Imodium. The pills are cheap (25 or 50 cents per pill). It will definitely stop the diarrhea if you take 3.

Take loperamide tablets. Eat light. Avoid alcohol if you wanna stay with your boyfriend rather than the restroom. Alcohol, weed, caffeine all are intestinal stimulants, they will only make it worse. Take some fresh apple juice or Lassi (Curd + sugar). These are all temporary remedies only. Will be enough for tonight. If Diarrhea continues/repeats tomorrow or consult a Doctor and have yourself checked up.

I would stay home if I were you or at least someplace that has a bathroom near. Right now, I don't think you need alcohol, you should probably drink plenty of fluids, like water or something like Gatorade.

Health is more important.. call your bf at your place.

[Asker]

I can't, my parents don't know I'm going out, my father doesn't even know I've got a boyfriend.

[kartoos]

That suck! But I would suggest you stay home or even if you go out you can have a totally different experience, it'll also tell you a lot about the guy;)

[JustinCaseUDontKnow]

They say when you have diarrhea it's best to let it run it's course but hope if you went out that you had a good time even thou

[DontDropIt]

Dang, that shit sucks! Just drink a shit ton of water, hopefully that helps.

[Asker]

Ikr! Thanks
