Alahan/Hyperemesis 1

I've been reading a lot on this topic since my 1st prenancy 7 years ago. Unfortunately, until now I have not find any remedy to reduce the suffering. So i hope you out there can help me and other sufferers to at least reduce the effect.

What is Hyperemesis Gravidarum?
You can find the exact meaning on the web but to us the sufferers it means:

1) Continuous vomiting from day 1 for months and in my case until birth.
- imagine being sick for 9 month plus :(

2) Unable to eat or drink
- i couldn't drink at all. any type of water. I reduce my thirst by eating watermelon.
- any food's taste or smell cause me to vomit. Only watermelon. At the end of my pregnancy, i managed to eat rice with fried jenahak . No other type of fish or other type of cooking.

3) Increased sense of smell and taste - this is the cause of no (2).

That's all for now. If you have any constructive input, please leave your comment.
