Survival Guide
Hyperemesis can be overwhelming
and greatly impact both you and your family. At a minimum,
it will disrupt your daily activities and make it difficult
or impossible to fulfill many of your responsibilities for
some time. It can also result in job loss, as well as render
you completely dependent on those around you for a time.
Most women are ill for three or four months, fewer experience
vomiting
or nausea until the birth of their child. It can be traumatic
emotionally and some families will choose to forego future
pregnancy plans. Often, proactive and aggressive treatment
can alleviate much of your misery and lessen the adverse
impact on your life. Finding
a health care professional with this thinking and experience,
however, can be a challenge.
This guide will provide you
with ideas
for
coping with and managing your condition. Hopefully, it will
also empower you to make informed decisions and survive HG
with less suffering:
