I feel like I'm going to die, I feel so sick.  I usually drink lattes, but today I got a cappucino, and I think it was too much caffeine or just too strong for me!  I have a headache, I feel weak, and my stomach ... it's like a cyclone in there.

I have naproxen to take (aleve) that was prescribed for my hand pain (I think I got carpel tunnel syndrome from knotting & nesting too much!), so that could work for the headache, but they say to eat something with it as to avoid stomach upset.

I can't think straight - what should I eat?  I already had a bagel with CC this morning.  help... (*groans dramatically*... no but really, help!)

Re: ugg...

  • i hate the jittery over caffinated feeling. I think eating something else would help. do you have anything in your desk? I find fruit helps me perk up. A banana or apple.
  • Ooooh caffiene overdose and aleve are not a good combo for the tummy. 

    Maybe eat a banana or some peanut butter toast.  Something to help your tummy soak up the caffiene and put something solid in it. 

    I haven't been able to drink coffee for a few weeks because it's giving me heart burn (DIES!!!).  But I broke down today because I really needed some - luckily I have my tums on hand. 

    Hope you feel better soon!

  • oh thanks, I was just about to take the alleve! I guess I will take tylenol.  I got myself some toast from the cafe downstairs, they were out of bananas.  thanks guys!
  • uggggg....and i thought you were talking about the furry boots.  :)  I would also drink some water throughout the day.  When I ingest too much caffine, I tend to also get very dehydrated and headachy.

    I second this - make sure you drink plenty of water to counteract the dehydration. I also like to keep something simple in my stomach (the bagel was a good moove) because otherwise I feel even sicker. 

  • thanks guys!  The headache is gone, and mostly I'm just feeling nauseated.  I can't wait for the day to be over!
  • Oh no, sorry to hear you were feeling so bad. Hopefully it's all over now...take care and hope you get to rest up this weekend =)
