Suggest Remedy For Vomiting, Dizziness And Numbness In Hands With History Of Migraine

My husband has a really bad migraine. He has been throwing up and it is not black but hasn t happened in a while. But his throat is raw and the acid is upsetting his tummy. His hands were numb. He can t walk far without getting light headed. This has been going on for about 8 hours now... Is there anything we can do?

Welcome to healthcaremagic.com. Sorry to hear about your husband. Your husband is probably dehydrated and therefore cannot do much, he is also feeling weak as he has lost potassium in his body that is used for muscle movement. He needs to hydrate himself despite the continued vomiting. He can use fluids that have electrolytes in them. Should this continue to worsen he needs to go to the ER and get IV fluids as this can get very dangerous, he seems to have already lost 25% of his body water as it stands. I hope this helps and good luck.
