I used to buy the Too Drunk emotibombs from Lush to use when I was suffering from nausea, or when I was congested. You drop the tab into the bottom of the shower and they would release a minty steam.

 I would break them into multiple pieces so that I could get more use out of each tab. They were absolutely fantastic at helping relieve nausea when I was sick and had to shower. 

Unfortunately Lush discontinued them. I don’t know if anyone else used the emotibombs, but a Lush employee explained that the company is really responsive to feedback, and emailing the company to request they would be re-stocked might have some success.

So, if you ever used the Lush emotibombs and want them brought back or would like the chance to use them please contact Lush customer service!

Ok fellow chronic illness sufferers, specifically those with joint pain:

Have you ever experienced pain in your joints that almost felt like nausea? I know that’s a weird way to describe it, but that’s almost exactly what it feels like. I’ve never had this happen before. Has anyone else experienced this?

And for dessert we’ll have phenergan and hydrocodone with a diphenhydramine glaze.

I want to shower but I keep having weird waves of nausea. Woo.

Maybe I should sit in the tub instead. Baths are good.

Nausea. Neck pain. Bruises, scratches, and a burn mark. I think I just did too much today.

Also, I’m stealing J’s boxers because all of my comfortable underwear are in the wash.

Blah.

Hai there nausea.

I think it might be time to blanket burrito in boyfriend’s bed while drinking ginger ale and trying not to throw up on things.

I think I’m going to take some phenergan and see if I can sedate the nausea into submission.

Sound good?
