Does anyone vomit when they get too warm? Even having a fever causes me to vomit.

My knee-jerk response is "no", but I've done it in the past when I was suffering from heat exhaustion. Is it possible you have gall bladder or digestive issues?

I don't think so. If I'm in the heat ( 80 defrees Farenheit or above)for as few as 10 minutes, without warning, I get very weak, disoriented and nauseous.. I stay hydrated and drink things with electrolytes, so I don't think it's heat exhaustion or heat stroke. When it has happened, ice packs on the back of my neck, ice under my feet and on my wrists is what I need quickly to overcome my debilitating physical and mental issues.

I understand the weak, disordoriented feelings. I have to sit down RIGHT NOW or I think I'll faint! I haven't yet because I plop myself down, regardless where I am!

I haven't thrown up but I get extremely nauseous, weak and lightheaded. I wear ice collars and an ice vest if it is over 75 degrees but it can still happen. I always carry Ondansetron that dissolves under the tongue to stop the nausea. Check with your doctor and see if you can try it.

I'm spending a lot more time indoors right now as north central Idaho is having unusually high temps at 100 or above. 😎

GreatDanekids, thanks for your reply. I recently was prescribed Ondansetron after an appendectomy. Thanks for suggesting it.

it's the craziest (and pretty disturbing) thing! i was indoors, with ac running and i lost my usb. i dunno, i somehow got overheated as i vociferously searched for it, moving things about when suddenly, i was sick... twice. i actually gave myself heat exhaustion inside! now i'm careful to pace myself and make sure i don't get overheated. smh

I threw up after my COVID vaccines maybe because of body temp increases πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

I have not had it happen but I have heard of people getting sick when they are over heated.

It sounds like I need to plan ahead.Cooling products (nectie and vest, which I have)) would definitely help. Just getting ready to go away from home wears me out. It seems. like freezing ice packs and putting them in the necktie and vest are just more steps I have to take before I can leave. 😩

yes. I have ice packs on my neck and a vest that helps. Now I just use them when I know or think there’s going to be a problem

I actually had this happen this week, got totally overheated and threw up until body temperature leveled out

I saw these the other day & thought they sounded cool (uh, pun intended?). cooltimeusa.com/products/co...

Pretty nifty if they work as advertised and "freeze" in front of an ac vent or cold water! I don't have too much heat intolerance, but if I did I would certainly be trying these! Amazon also has them cheaper if you search "neck cooling tube".

Yes, yesterday I went to see aurora/obgyn and got a testing device INTERSTIM. I got up early without any drinks or breakfast. 6am to 12:30. Nausea * Heat affects me often and so does cold. Try to pay attention and use cold pacs or cool shower. I need to drink more πŸ’§ water. 🚿 take care

Thank you for your response!I drink water with liquid IV in it. The pina colada flavor is very good. I recently got medicine to help with nausea and got a cool ring for around my neck. I love spring and fall, I’m ready for this heat to end.!!
