Obviously the enlightened ones, Chrisb1 and Mouseclick may answer this better.

My guess would be this far into it you may have toxins being released that were embedded deep within the muscles and/or organs. Perhaps some medications taken earlier in your life?

Hello missbliss77,

Nausea & vomiting are quite common in the fasting process and is listed by Shelton as one of the crises of elimination. They are both a consequence of severe toxemia and one of the channels the body uses to expel effluent material; but it is also more likely to occur with a more toxemic condition of the body, than say on a second extended fast where most of the elimination of toxins has already taken place.

This was my own experience on my first fast of 25 days, where I vomited intermittently for 4 to 5 days AFTER day 18 to 19 on bile and other effluent liquids. This fast was an awful experience throughout its length. My second fast of 30 days was plain-sailing, and a sheer joy to undergo.
The only danger with this experience is the risk of dehydration, where 3 litres of water per day is rather excessive, and a burden of elimination to the body. Please drink only pure water according to thirst.
It is absolutely vital that you continue the fast until the vomiting and nausea have subsided, as to end the fast during this period can be dangerous and sometimes even fatal.
When you are not vomiting sip water in very small amounts, but again only according to thirst. If you listen to the wants & needs of the body, it will tell you everything you need to know.


This is Dr Sheltons experience with both nausea & vomiting.........

"Nausea: This seems to be an expression of a sudden decrease of the normal tension of the stomach. It may be induced by a foul odor, a bad taste, a disgusting sight, or an emotional shock. Severe pain, illness, fatigue, rapid descent in an elevator, etc., may produce nausea by lowering the tension of the stomach. These things bring about a loss of tension through a complicated "reflex" mechanism.
Continual emotional disturbances, such as prolonged worries, anguish, grief and repeated shocks, may result in a persistent loss of tone in the stomach and produce the "all gone" sensation or vague nausea often complained of.
In many cases there is no doubt that the sudden withdrawing of all food, as in fasting, results in a temporary lowering of tone or tension in the stomach and this produces nausea. On the other hand, tall, thin, undernourished people are likely to suffer with a chronic lack of tension in the stomach and this becomes more noticeable when they fast. The presence of bile in the stomach also causes nausea. Its presence is very likely to lead to vomiting.


Vomiting: I had one case to vomit almost continuously for six days and nights, although such vomiting usually lasts not more than a day or two. Much mucus and bile are thrown out. It is a cleaning-out process. The aforementioned case developed persistent hiccoughs when the six days of vomiting ceased, and this persisted for seven days before it ceased. The cessation of these two crises was the end of her suffering which had persisted for seven years. Another case, an old lady, vomited four days and nights, but made an excellent recovery. I do not regard vomiting as a danger signal, but as a cleansing process.
Mr. B, who underwent a 31 days fast in my institution in 1932-33, began vomiting on the 23rd day of his fast and vomited day and night for 7 days, or through the 29th day of fasting. Large quantities of mucus and bile were brought up. He was very weak while vomiting, but became strong again as soon as the vomiting ceased. This, however, is the usual experience.
Efforts to break a fast while the patient is vomiting are futile, even harmful. "Only God could break a fast," wrote Dr. Dewey, in a personal letter to Hereward Carrington, dated March 26, 1903, "where there is a sick stomach and there is no time to let nature perform the task. Taking food in such a stomach would be death-dealing. There is nothing to do but make the body and mind as comfortable as possible, and Nature will cure, if the seal of death is not set."
Speaking of the occurrence of vomiting during a fast, Mr. Macfadden says: "It is certainly inadvisable to break a fast at such a time. If food be administered at such a time, it most certainly will be ejected, and it may aggravate the vomiting all the more." Dr. Dewey records a case in which vomiting began after fasting fifty days. Food was tried, but promptly ejected. There was nothing to do but wait, with the result that one day after the last vomiting spell, there was a natural call for food--and this on the sixtieth day of the fast.
Much mucus is often (usually) expelled in the vomiting process. I have seen no pus so ejected but Carrington tells of such. I have seen vomiting last for as long as two weeks after forty or more days of fasting and, while it leaves the patient very weak, there has in no case been any danger of death.
Sometimes vomiting, headache and eruption will all come together. With a little experience in handling cases, one can judge fairly accurately in advance who is and who is not going to develop a severe crisis. Long standing cases of digestive troubles, particularly those accompanied with nervous disorders, are most prone to develop these.
As vomiting is merely part of the elimination that fasting encourages, most often due to overactivity of the liver with regurgitation of bile into the stomach, it needs only to be let alone. It may develop early or late in the fast, but it constitutes no danger, so far as my own experience and observations go. Carrington says that such vomiting spells occurring at the end of a prolonged fast have been known to terminate fatally. I have seen no such fatalities and naturally wonder if death in such cases may not have resulted from the heroic treatment designed to stop the vomiting."

I hope this has been of some help to you.

Warm Regards

re: "my scrubs are bagging off". hmmmm This is a foreign language to me...

something to do with losing weight?

:-)

you'll get past this. Everyone is different, but Shelton et al have the experiences of 66,000 or more to look at--and your experience is in there, as 'normal'. Best not to interrupt the process, since it's all about healing. Listen to Chris. He's well-versed and has come out the other side of misery.
