    Does anyone else feel nauseous reading this drivel? Good grief!

     

    I admit, I did.

     

    Men can be such morons. This is the stuff you write about your mother, not your girlfriend.

     

     

    She is the bestest, most honest and least greedy people he knows. All this after the OP started a thread about his gf being accused of theft and fired.

     

    As usual, she'll do just fine in UK. The OP like so many before him will not be able to move on.

    There where charges on my account after words from different locations around the world.  Online transactions.  It's as if once my card was used in the ATM everyone and his brother started charging against the card.

     

    It doesn't have to be the ATM at that specific location.

     

    I had a bank card and a credit card in in a safety deposit box...one of them I never even used and they were able to withdraw 200 bucks from my account.

    To be dehdrated you would have to be having copious fluid losses. You say you do not vomit and you do not mention severe watery diarrhea.

    I think you msy be going in the erong direction to see a GI specisalst.

    Loss of consciousness is serious and unless preceded by really massive fluid lods, would not be related to anything GI.

    Sorry Sheryl, I just checked my original post. Yes, I didn't mention this but I did infact have a severe diarrhea every time  I fainted.

    This (the fainting) is definitely not normal and not due to either PPIs or stomach flu.

     

    The reported monthly "stomach flu" is also not normal but I would need to know more about what exactly you are experiencing (?nausea? diarrhea?) to better understand this.

     

    If it is just nausea then what you are experiencing is a feeling or aura of nausea following by loss of consciousness, unlikely to be due to anything GI. More likely neurological or cardiac. The recent head injury could be related.

     

    You need to see a good doctor ASAP.  Since it is not clear if the problem is neurological, cardiac or other, best would be to start with a good GP but they are few and far between in this part of the world.

     

    If you are in Bangkok I suggest you see Dr. Nick Walters at Mission Hospital  to start with, he will do initial investigations and then if and as necessary refer you to appropriate specialist

    Ok, always trying not too be too dramatic (and I know google is not know it all), but according to this link it seems that fainting could be somewhat common due to "During being sick (vomiting) or experiencing runny stools (diarrhoea) and other reasons for having a lack of fluid in the body (being dehydrated)."

    Also, I want to reiterate once again that I never said PPI's are cause of fainting, but they may be a culprit to more frequent stomach infections due to lower acid?

     

    I think I will see a GI tomorrow and go from there.

    I had to  look  up Ppi's maybe u  fall under "dizziness"

    Common adverse effects include headache, nausea, diarrhea, abdominal pain, fatigue, and dizziness.[20] Infrequent adverse effects include rash, itch, flatulence, constipation, anxiety, and depression. Also infrequently, PPI use may be associated with occurrence of myopathies, including the serious reaction rhabdomyolysis.

     

    I was just saying that because PPI's lower acid there may be more chances for viruses and bacteria to attack as acid is supposed to kill them, really.

     

    So, I'm not blaming PPI's for fainting episodes, but for stomach infections.

     

    The fainting for the last few times followed the same pattern. Fever, waking up at night with the feeling of vomiting (which I guess is notmal if you have a stomach flu) , but instead of vomiting I'll just faint.

    Dear Capt. Piccard,

    I take PPI's for 10 years. They don't cause fainting.

    Fainting (under any circumstances), is your body showing you a red flag, indicating something is very wrong.

    -See a Doctor!

    Nobody on this Forum would want to read that Cpt Piccard has succumbed to some strange Klingon Attack.

    Cheers.

     

    I'll make it so.

     

    But I'm not blaming ppi's for fainting but rather frequent stomach infections.

     Men between the ages of 18 to 34 years old will drink an estimated 24.4 percent of beer sold in Canada.
    Beer, the most popular alcoholic drink in Canada. In 2015, a survey found that 57 percent of Canadians consumed beer.

    Yes. Thanks for that.

     

    I'm so looking forward to my condo corridors stink of pot.

  8. It seems like I'm getting a stomach flu every month now. Somehow I think it's because of ppi's that reduce acid and encourage viruses and bacteria. 

     

    Anyway what's happening lately is that when I have a fever I will wake up at night, feel like vomiting, but instead of vomiting I'll pass out. 3 months ago I split my head like this and had to have a ct scan. Last night I was fortunately sitting on a toilet, so the fall wasn't bad (some teeth damaged and a head scratch).

     

    Has anyone experienced the same.

     

    This country, I swear.....

     

  9. I wonder if most of the replies blaming a girl are from arrogant people living near BTS that never took a public bus in Bangkok.

     

    A lot of bus drivers drive like lunatics and will give you no time to exit or enter the bus. The doors on these non air con busses are open 50% of the time. I take these stupid buses every day and drivers in my country drive better transporting cattle.

     

    Just stupid comments all around.
