I think I've eaten some pretty dodgy street vendor food, i'm rather nauseous. Not been sick YET but its been a close run thing. Any tips on drugs might get rid of the sick feeling?

Symptoms include nausea, headaches and the shivers.

Last time I enjoy meat on a stick for oh bek won.

Quick remedy: fingers down your throat.

Best of luck.

Possible outcome if it is food poisoning: your body will purge from both ends.

Good luck with that as well.

I dare say you won't be able to make it today which is understandable, Blunder. Get better soon.

I once got some chicken on a stick from a vendor and the meat clearly wasn't cooked thoroughly. Threw it away and didn't get ill, thank fook.

Well I'm gonna have my first food of the day. I was rather sick this mornin, and have been feeling shaky ever since. Feelin hungry now which is a good sign.

I thought that anti-sickness pills would be a longshot, but I figured I might as well ask. Good ol' vendor food. Its russian roulette for the stomach.

PHENERGAN is used to cause sedation to assist in controlling postoperative pain, to control nausea and vomiting. I have a boatload of it in my fridge. It's really really really good shiit..MUCH better than ZOFRAN..prolly widely available even in Korea, don't drive on it tho!
