Janine,
First off, I am so sorry that you are going through this. HG is truly a miserable place to be. I am also sorry that your pattern of HG is worse in the 2nd trimester. Many gals have a miserable 1st and are feeling some relief by the 2nd. I can realte though, my HG was miserable throguh my 1st and 2nd trimesters, and slightly more tolerable in the 3rd, although I was still vomitng 1 to 2 times a day (in the 3rd).
Thank you for the insight on the accupuntre. It seems to be hit or miss around here, with many saying it helps, but "wears off" after a few days.
If you could let me know how the herbal meds go, I would TRULY appreciate it. My next door neighbor is a Chinese herbal Dr / accupunruist. I did not see him in the past, but truly feel that western medicine is failing me (I did not get relief from zofran, steroids, phenergan, benedryl, b6, unisom, meclinzine and even ginger). (Relief for even part of the day.)
We want try again, probably in the June/July timeframe, and I acutally have an appointment with my neighbor soon.
I hope better days arrive soon for you.
Big HuGS,
Robin
