I have found what the most bitter substance in the world is.
If you’ve been wondering where I’ve been, here I am to tell you.
That’s right, I’ve been in the toilet.
Either with my head down a bucket or my ass glued to the toilet bowl, waiting for a merciful death.
I got the worst food poisoning case in my entire life.
Two days ago, Tim caught it and threw up 6 times in a night. Then he was recovering but my parents felt sorry for him and asked him to stay over so at least there would be people around to take care of him.
But that night itself, I felt like my stomach had a lot of wind in it and I thought it was indigestion.
But when Tim was taking a shower, I felt my stomach heave and made it to my mom’s bathroom …. in time to throw up in her sink wtf.
While she was still on the toilet bowl wtf.
I still thought it was indigestion so I thought ahhh now I can relax.
(while my mother tearfully scooped puke out of her sink with old newspaper wtf)
But then I found myself running to the toilet over and over again to throw up.
2nd and 3rd time I was still standing.
By the 5th time I was in tears and on my knees.
By the 6th time I was begging my mom and Tim to take me to a 24 hour clinic.
At the clinic, even in the midst of a vomit haze wtf I saw the doctor rubbing his eyes and yawning cos it was 2am (but too sick to feel scared)
But everyone there was so mean! All the nurse and doctor were concerned with was the possibility of me puking on their floor.
And in the clinic when I felt like I had to diarrhea again and I nearly banged down the toilet door in my haste to get in, there was no toilet paper. I sent Tim to find me some and waited for what seemed like eternity until the old Indian guard came to peer at me.
I nearly shouted at him “WHERE’S THE TOILET PAPER” and he said “don’t have” like it was my fault and that I would have to use my hands wtf.
Then when the doctor examined me, he asked me to open my mouth and pushed the metal stick onto my tongue, I yanked away afraid that I would gag and throw up again.
He yelled at me “if you would open your mouth bigger I wouldn’t have to use this stick!”
Then after a perfunctory examination, he declared “you have Vertigo.”
I snapped at him “IT’S NOT VERTIGO LA I HAVE DIARRHEA TOO”
He muttered something and said he would give me an injection.
I nodded quickly anything to stop the vomiting T______T
So after getting the jab, collecting the medicine and throwing up one more time in the drain outside the clinic (HAH TAKE THAT) we got home.
But the fucking injection didn’t work.
All it did was make me so groggy that I knocked out right away.
But I woke up again and again to throw up.
First 2-3 times I managed to stumble to the bathroom to vomit.
But after that I was so tired and drugged up that all I could do was vomit in a pan near my bed and Tim would wake up to wash it off and replace it next to my bed again T__________T
By then nothing was coming up except bile and water (which Tim would force me to drink everytime I threw up)
And bile is the most disgusting bitterest thing to taste.
(Did you also know that it is pale yellow wtf.)
Every time I threw up the bile, I would gag on it because it was so bitter and that would make me vomit even more.
I refused to drink any more water so I wouldn’t have to throw up but no matter what, the convulsions still came, I still retched and dry-heaved with nothing coming out of me.
All in all, I threw up more than 20 times.
I finally stopped around 7am. And spent the rest of the day either asleep, fighting nausea, moving like an old woman or having no appetite.
Every time I moved I felt like puking. Everytime I swallowed some water or a bite of food I wanted to puke.
Even when Tim tried to put his arm around me I pushed him away and said “don’t come near me it makes me feel like puking” :((((
Today I woke up feeling a bit better. But I still couldn’t eat much without wanting to throw up and spent most of the day in the toilet, this time with diarrhea.
But diarrhea is nothing compared to vomiting ok! Not much pain and can just sit there reading a book to pass time while I pee through my ass wtf.
Ok very long winded and it’s time for me to go to the toilet again (but at least now I can control it! I diarrhea when I want to! wtf)
P/S: Thank you Mummy and Tim for taking care of me that night without you I would have drowned in a puddle of my own puke god bless you both wtf T_______T
PP/S: Fat Her slept through the whole thing and didn’t even know we drove out in the middle of the night to the doctor wtf.
PPP/S: And don’t say it was the carbonara ok! *denial

I would rather diarrhea than vomiting too =( take care ya! Hope you will recover very soon =)
seems to be having a very chronic food poisoning… glad to know that you are better now. at least you wont get anymore thinner than you are now by puking everything out. do remember to take care of yourself as your readers (me included) is really concern about you and your blog…
take care ya…
*frantic*
LOVE ARE YOU OKAY!!!!! T_____T i’m so worried about you poor thing ya vomiting sucks balls lor i’ve had to throw up weird stuff before so i know but never more than 20 times so you win wtf.
tske care okay /boo talk to you soon!
and what 24 clinic was that!!!! what kinda place is that stupid wan!!!!!
but hor.. got one time i also went to a 24hr clinic in puchong and you know ar, the stupid doctor gave me 2x the recommended amount of a medicine and i got heart palpitations okay!
u should drink 100 plus after throwing up so many times instead of water. it re-hydrates ur body faster and doesn’t leave that weird taste in your mouth when you drink water after puking. π
take care !
yeah. u should drink 100 plus after all that vomiting.
I had food poisoning too when I went penang last time.
hahaa!
: ( I hope you feel better soon dearie. I’m sorry you feel so miserable and what assholes you had to deal with at the clinic.
that’s awful :[
food poisoning sucks! I really hope you feel better really soon
hahahaha awwwwwww babie going back to sleep while u were puking doesn’t mean i love u less than Tim okay ! At least I woke up for a while and asked if u were okay ! unlike uncle who slept thru it all …
Hope you feel much much better soon! π
hope you’re all right now π but hor..you and tim had the same thing, so it must be the carbonara
*faster run away*
there there! at least now u know tim loves you enough to clean up ur puke π
It’s not cabonara but the sharing of cabonara! π
wow…I’ve never vomitted more than 20 times woi…I’ve always got wind in my tummy that it makes me feel like puking most of the time la. But never 20 times. I think I would have cried for God’s mercy by the 5th time. I hate vomitting. I’d rather take any medicine available to stop it. =P But mum usually wont let me cause she thinks it’s better to vomit all bad bacterias out.
I usually take the chinese medicine though. I usually take poh chai yuen for tummy and the siam medicine in powder type for vomitting.
anyway, is food poisoning contagious?
im sure it’s not the carbonara la unless the bacon wasn’t cooked properly but considering how tim was worried it was gonna turn black im sure that wasn’t it.
*pat pat* haih… good that you’re feeling better la though. =/ vomiting is the hates i dunno how bullimics can stomach it. =.=
p/s i know it was tragic and very painful but indian guard moment was hilarious im sorry T.T
Hope you’re feeling much much better now π
aiyer π
ok well on the positive side to this, (always look for the positive side!) i think you would have lost alot of weight from food poisoning, usually happens. except you dont have much weight to lose also, so. Hmm. wait, is this a negative thing. π
so what did you eat that make you puke that badly?if isnt the pasta.. =oooo
well good that your good now ! hope you feel much better now π
gosh you mustve been through a lot of suffering! it sounds like it! i hate vomiting! are you ok? =( well its good that youre better.
It must be that pasta…

ah gosh i really feel for you! are you sure sure sure its not the carbonara?? maybe smtg was contaminated and got in it?? anyways hope you get back to normal soon!
Get well soon! it’s make me sad foe cuite like you fall sick!
So…what did you do in the end with the toilet paper issue?
γ倧δΊγ«γget well soon xoxo
Oh god I had food poisoning 2 weeks ago too =( And in 1 day I vomited around 20 times it was awful..Even after my visit to the doctor I felt nauseous and vomited in a coffeeshop. (but luckily I brought a plastic bag along cos I felt like vomiting every time I stand up) I took around 2 3 days to fully recover cos I still felt weak after that 1st day. So i know how you feel now =( Drink 100 plus instead of water cos it tastes much better. Get well soon yea~
hey audrey! saw you today at a bak kut teh restaurant. wanted to say hi but i chickened out. scared you might think i’m psycho haha. you and tim look adorable together π
What else did you eat? Sounds weird, but in the past 2 weeks so many people I know either had diarrhea or vomitting due to food poisoning (serious!).. some contaminated food?
Vomiting is the worst. I always feel like I’m going to die. I’m suffering from stomach flu here too. And it keeps coming back, like after a week or so.
ohh nooo
how u feelin now ?
hope u feel better … take care ok
omg… that’s a realll bad one. hope u r fully recovered by now! π
gosh i also had food poisoning when i went to penang last time T_T
Hope you are feeling better, love!
I got that last year too, and I even fainted/fell asleep in the toilet.
-____-
Somehow I was too weak to even feel the needle going through after all the puking and diarrhea. Becareful of which clinic to go to. The 24 hours doctor I went to was disastrous, she prescribed me 22 TABLETS per day. 8 in the morn, 6 at noon, 8 at night. =/
U sure have a caring mum and bf. π Hope u’re feeling better.
Oh by the way, sip on 100 plus.
& western and chinese medicine clashes.. so only take one. Get well soon. π
saw you appear in NST wif yr SIL. lol
anyway get well soon! π
Thank god there is a 24 hours clinic around your area. get well soon!
get well soon! thank goodness you had your mum and tim to look after you. when i had food poisoning years ago, i had to look after myself and spent the whole day alternating between vomiting and diarrhea for an entire week π
Poor girl! What an ordeal you had to go through! Hope you and Tim are a lot better now.
We can rule out the pasta because you fell ill days after the impromptu cooking session.
Whatever you guys had, it had to be within 24 hours after Tim first fell ill. Anyway, yes, I personally know a lot of people down with stomach flu in the past month so be careful people!
Audrey,
Sorry to read of such an awful way of spending several days.
A couple items to keep in mind, food poisoning can set within 30 minutes of eating contaminated food. Symptoms include everything that happened to you, and this illness runs its course in 24-48 hours. Which sound about right based on your description.
Vertigo!!!! I am not impressed by the clinic, the doctor, the clinic staff and the way you were treated.
Do not go to that clinic again, provided you have a choice. A hospital ER should treat you better and have a more professional staff.
I trust that by the time you read this you are well and enjoying life!
David
It’s a wrong post to put this but, Happy Birthday to you Audrey.

are you okay now? hey by the way .. i saw you at ss2 last sunday! walking around with tim holding your strawberry umbrella π
too bad if i wasn’t in the car, i would have went talk to you. but would that freak you out?
what’s vertigo? it sounds like a horoscope wtf
PIKCHURS LA~!
Hey I had a serious food poisoning episode before and totally understand how you felt. You know I had a sharp blinding pain on my tummy until I actually fainted on the way to the washroom, in a restaurant, TWICE! It was really scary. Total blackout for me. Doc advised me to drink Glucose after that so you should too! Good luck!
Symptoms of pregnancy…. sial:)
yo aud.. my 1st time commenting here. ur food poisoning could be due to the pasta being too greasy and to top it off, it might not have been fully cooked as i’d said before. anyways, get well soon n pass my regards to Matsuko san, the japanese who plays mahjong o.O . Arigato Gosaimasu. wtf
happy belated birthday aud!
hope ure all better now T_T
So, what food was it? Aren’t you going to warn us all not to go wherever it was? π
yikes.. your food poisoning was bad π
sounds like.. uhmm.. you had Norovirus? hahaha.. i can’t be sure of course.. but suspect Noro cause you had projectile vomiting..
heh… sounds like you possibly got it from Tim too π food poisoning can be passed on from person to person..actually.. that’s how a lot of food poisoning occurs.. so, not necessarily from food but could be from another person who vomited and then you happen to walk by an aerosolised bacteria/virus particles can infect you.. mmm.. best advice.. Good hand hygiene! 20sec wash with soap and 20 sec of hand drying..
omgoodness.. I’ve been brainwashed by work =.=”””
Also, common misconceivement is that food poisoning usually due to things you ate in the last 24 hours. not true. It can be from something you ate 10 days prior depending on the bug.
