I dont think its anxiety, i do have asthma (diagnosed recently) I used to suffer with trav sick' when i was younger but then got ok...then the week after i came ut of hospital b4 xmas we were in the car driving to southend and it hit me then, i passed out on the side of the road, the week after happened again and i was sick (outside a club in Basildon!) I do listen to music, but its normally Drum and bass or Jungle- not soothing at all lol (and a bit of take that!) xxx

Hi Steph Sorry to hear you are feeling so rough - do you think maybe you are suffering anxiety attacks ?? When I was suffering from stress (before I knew) I would start to feel sick every morning the closer I got to work. What do you do when travelling? Do you read - just look out the window ?? Maybe try listening to some relaxing music see it that helps. And last of all - yes get a test done - rule out that possiblity, and if you are not pregnant, and don't want to be - yet - consider asking your GP about injection or implant contraceptive if you are a bit 'hit and miss' with tablets :O)) Take care xxx

Steph Don't go to the chemist tomorrow, do a test first, just to be on the safe side. Good Luck Kim x

I wouldn't have thought missing an odd one would cause you to be sick. As long as you haven't just stopped them can't see it being that. If you don't feel any better when you get home ring NHS Direct. Germaine x

Steph if there is a possibility you are pregnant even just a small chance get checked out because of your meds. Now don't make me bully you again will you. Being preggers does stupid things to you with Zoe I got claustrophobic so much so that we went camping and I had to have the tent open and got hardly any sleep. Midwives hadn't heard about that one before.
