Medical EMERGENCY. Please read and help me ASAP?!


Question:

Medical EMERGENCY. Please read and help me ASAP?

I've been strict vegan almost 6 years and I've just accidently consumed roughly 130 grams of finely ground beef at a restaraunt. I'm experiencing severe stomach cramps and lethargy and burping and farting and I don't know what to do. The food is in my intestine by now, so it's probably too late to vomit it up, and it's too early for laxatives, and if I use pain killers it will constipate me further.

What do I do?


Answers:
i would suggest something like tums or even just a type of milk to give your digestion some base, water might help, but milk what ever kind you consume will help. Your body is probably going to have a rough few days, between the red meat and the grease from it. I do not consume red meat, and did have a few bites of steak the other night just to see how my body would react, it was not as severe as yours, but I have only been off of red meat for about 6 months. Stay calm though, you sound upset, and i am sure you are in pain. try flushing your system with water too. I hope you feel better.

Wait, it will pass.

Get over yourself! If it is a true emergency stop posting stupid questions and call 911.

Have a nice day. You meat eater.

You should go to the drugstore and buy a stool softener called "Colace". It comes in a small white bottle. You put a couple of teaspoons of it into a glass of water and drink it. Within 30 minutes or so, you'll pass every single thing in your intestines - it really cleans you out.

As there is NO way of getting it out now - then you let nature runs its course. You are NOT going to die from this so ... just bear it for the next 24 hours until it leaves your system.

A bit of pain killer won't constipate you , surely. It might even help.

i dont mean to be mean, but it sounds to me like a physcological thing. i ate beef once, on accident, and felt horrible, but then i realized nothing was wrong. it is good that u feel bad about it, and maybe it might have been other food that made u feel bad. just let it pass, unless other symptoms develop

Your fine your body is just not used to eating meat, You have the same symptoms as if you ate other peoples cooking your just not used to it.

drink plenty of water. eat light - preferably soups and other fluid for a day. You will be fine.

relax. your body is not used to having meat in it. you will take a runny dump and that will be that.

Your just going to have to chill out till it gets out of your system. Your body is reacting bc you haven't eaten any meat.

What about eating some prunes? That'll clear your system and they aren't drugs. It's the fastest way I can think of to get rid of the garbage.

just digest it. take a stomach soother, pepto bismol or the equivalent (depending on where in the world you are)

your body will process the food naturally, even though you have not eaten meat in a long time. it will have a harder time processing it, but you will not be in serious medical danger. this reaction is being made more dramatic by your mental/emotional aversion to it (that was not meant to be offensive or a cut....truly).

i think the best thing to do is treat this as a stomach flu. your body will work through it.

do what she said

wait it out kid. Its not going to be very fun.

i am so sorry that hapened. but if you are having issues like that, you shouldnt ask on yahoo answers, you need to call your doctor! again, i am really sorry about that. it must be horrible!
