Throwing up sucks! I hate it. I would just replace the gauze after each event and try to keep things clean. If you can't keep much down try a broth or maybe one of those G2 no sugar Gatorade drinks just to keep yourself hydrated.

Carly I hope you recove soon but if it last more then 2 days, my suggestion is to get in touch with your dentist.

If you're worried about going low, maybe sipping ginger ale, very tiny amounts, along with the no carb drinks, will help. I think pain killers are a very common cause of nausea, so they are probably the problem.

The ginger should work, but maybe you should try pulverizing some candied ginger. You should be able to find it at the supper market. It's been proven ginger works as well as prescription meds.
Take care of yourself.

I hope you feel better! You have already been given good advice from everyone else:) I hope you get well soon

You can also call your doctor for pheneragin or zofran. I keep both on hand for the times I can't keep anything down. Zofran you can get in tablets that dissolve under your tongue, then you don't have to worry about not keeping them down.

Thank you all for such great advice! I've been sipping ginger ale, and stopped taking the pain killers, and so far I'm okay :).
