For me it was Jucyfruit gum – my sisters ALWAYS chewed it on car trips. I now find ANY of the sickly-sweet fruit candy odors absolutely nausating. (Hey! Maybe it was a good thing that they DID chew it. I hated the smell so much that I usually already had the car window open…) -Haggis

I was going to post the exact same thing! Especially the "going out to barf" part – glasses were a LIFESAVER! Which I glad my mom didn’t give me – she gave me Doublemint gum every time I got queasy in the car (read, every time I was *in* the car).

Could be hair balls. Cats throw up a lot. Put some petroleum jelly (better even, get some hair ball medication) on the tops of her paws from time to time. She’ll will lick it off, get it into her gi tract, and smooth the way for the removal of hair balls through "conventional" elimination KAT in CT – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text ->Pam Who Has Omitted The Actual Word Because This *Is* A Family NG

Definitely will give it a try…probably is <blank-iti-blank> hairballs…makes sense especially when I consider the fact that the "barfer" is a long hair and the "moose" is a short hair… Thanks for the cat-tip, CAT…er, I mean KAT . – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text ->>Pam Who Has Omitted The Actual Word Because This *Is* A Family NG

>Ack! Tell me about it! . She no sooner eats and heads straight for the
rug. Ah HA! Another clue. Food could be too rich or too cold. FISH, believe it or not, cat food is often too rich for some cats, especially OLD ones. Some cats get so hungry that they gobble their food, if it’s too cold or rich, UP it comes. Try heating it in the microwave for a bit if it comes right out of the fridge. Also, if your cat is 7 yrs or older, buy one of the "less active" cat foods: Frisky’s in regular store, IAMS in pet stores (we use a combo of both). Another crazy post… sigh… "-)) CAT er……KAT… in CT

How about when they climb up on your bookcase and do it across a number of expensive reference books? > We call him Ed but his proper name is Edsel ‘cuz he came home in the wheelwell > of dh’s Ford when he was about 3-4 months old…
He owned a Ford when he was only 3-4 months old? Cool! I bet he couldn’t wait to grow up and drive it. > Definitely will give it a try…probably is <blank-iti-blank> hairballs…makes > sense especially when I consider the fact that the "barfer" is a long hair and > the "moose" is a short hair…
So… does little Barfer make that horrible meeeeeeerrrrrowwwwwwwww just before the grits fly, or is it that wheezy cough-like sound, or that gutteral bluke, bluke, bluke, blat! noise? ———–== Posted via Deja News, The Discussion Network ==———- http://www.dejanews.com/ Search, Read, Discuss, or Start Your Own

My daughter(15) has had a severe retching tic for the past seven years. Life is a daily struggle and we continue to look for answers. A number of her doctors have concluded it is the TS. However, we still question if TS/OCD is the complete explanation for the severity and complexity of her problems. Margie

If you were referring to your statement about being nervous, I neglected to add that I presently do not like being a passenger much, and that in itself will not make me ill, but if I am already feeling ill, it sure doesn’t help! Especially when my hyperactive friend who likes excitement is driving! : ) I didn’t mean to say that I didn’t think yours was a valid observation.

My son was having episodes of vomiting at least once a month for a year before he was diagnosed with Ts. He now as always gets car sick very easily but the recurrent vomiting (without reason) has stopped. Has anyone else experienced this? Thank You Beth
Response:
I can be very sensitive about putting my safety in the control of the driver when riding as a passenger in a car. Even if you’re a thoroughly safe driver you might want to talk to your son about what you can do to help him feel more relaxed when you’re driving and consider it as somewhat of a partnership. However, it is dangerous to have a committee making driving decisions while actually driving- the driver must take full control at that time. I don’t get car sick, but in some situations I can get very uncomfortable as a passenger. I’m happy that his stomach is feeling better these days, but I could almost envy someone with the ability to vomit so easily-could have used that skill when I was a kid to get rid of some of the garbage they poured down my throat in school. Regurgitating it on tests just didn’t seem to give me any relief.

My son had this problem, too, along with generalized abdominal pain. Most of it cleared up within weeks after discontinuing his Risperdal. Apparently he was having a reaction to it. He still takes Prevacid for hiccoughs and chronic heartburn, although he was on this medication prior to developing the, uh, "hurling problem." 
But it has disappeared since we found out what was causing it. Hope this helps, Arlene 276/259/160—-started Atkins 2/21/99 FAQ http://www.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=381302050 http://people.delphi.com/elizjack/lowcarb.txt http://www.grossweb.com/asdlc/faq.htm
Response:
I feel a need to clarify the post I left on the vomiting subject-I wasn’t talking about bad school lunches. I meant old rotted decaying information and lies that were passed off as "knowlege". I think it had a lot to do with all the nausea a experienced in school. Not to mention the "tease factor" I went into first grade overflowing with enthusiasm for learning and just a few days into it I was petrified at the thought that I might have to deal with this for the next 20 or so years. Then I had a truly dedicated and inspiring 4th grade teacher, then a 5th grade teacher whose main goal in life seemed to be to break down the confidence of every child she could cross paths with. Then in 7th and 8th grades I had a religious studies teacher( I went to a parrochial school) not only seemed to be trying to point out to everybody that me and my family were evil because we were’t as religiously observant as the vast majority at that school,while he also preached racial bigotry on an almost daily basis. But I also had in 7th and 8th grades a math teacher who was probably at the time the world’s greatest teacher who not only got everybody in the class so excited about what we were learning that it seemed like chaos to the school authorities who kept trying to get her to normalize the class and she dealt with them with such skill and understanding of their point of view that she negotiated with them until they saw the light and kept us learning at such an accelerated pace that we were learning math way beyond our grade level and skills that are hardly even taught at any level in school. She had a major influence in my mathematical life. Then there were………….

I don’t think carsickness has necessarily anything to do with being afraid in the car. When I was quite young I used to get carsick very easily, even on long schoolbus rides. I finally outgrew it, but can’t read in the car for too long or it will start up.

Have you had his eyes tested? I had a great deal of trouble riding in the car when I was a child – I got sick on any extended trip. It turned out that I needed glasses. Aparently, the strain of trying to look at moving objects out of the car window was enough to set me off. (I STILL remember dreading "going for a ride", which to me meant "going out to barf".) Anyway, getting glasses made an incredible difference. It didn’t do away with the nausia completely, but I no longer threw up in the car. (Can anybody say "Yay"?) Oh yes – I also used to have really nasty sick headaches. -Haggis BTW – Both of my sisters have "hair-trigger" gag reflexes, as did my daughter when she was younger. Hope this helps.
