Because I continue to make poor decisions...

[Uuaww]

Last week I talked about the Thai food/Energy drink combo. Well I decided to one-up it last night with the Jalepeno festival (Armadillo eggs, Jalepeno-artichoke dip, nachos) follow by... you guessed it, energy drinks.


So, with my stomach on fire; again, I ask of the wise Dis. What should I take to combat my poor decision making? Should I take something before? during? after? I eat spicy food at least once a week, and will be going to battle again on Monday Night (Indian food, followed by energy drinks, you know, the usual).

Have you tried taking Pepcid before you indulge?

Why are you drinking energy drinks? You can drink something else.

You can take a Zantac Max before you indulge. However I would not drink the energy drinks.

I would test to see if the combo is worse. Evergy drinks can mess with you.

energy drinks are for the morning after. I don't like coffee and I work at 430 am. Usually I only drink them when I go out the night before and stay out to midnight or so... which usually goes hand in hand with going out for spicy food.

I will try pepcid and zantac...

I think it's pretty cool that you have committed yourself to a process which you find so enjoyable... badly designed though it may be.

I think an Imodium and some Beano before you eat with some Gas-x chasers after the meal and during the day at work might be the way to go. I believe the Zantac and Pepcid are more for ulcers & pain than for upset & sour bellies brought on by beans and tomato products. I could be wrong... I'd ask a pharmacist wherever you are going to pick this stuff up, none of these products are cheap. Happy partying!

I've always had good luck with the chewable pepto bismol tablets for those bad food choices.

These do nothing for me. I swear I've drank so much pink that my stomach contents have turned basic.

Have you considered therapy?

 

[Uuaww]

Have you considered therapy?

I wouldn't know where to start? I mean am I addicted to self torture, poor decision making, or spicy food?

Maybe you should eat spicy food on nights when you don't have to go to work the next morning.

I work 6 days a week and that's like taking a day off from work when you are sick. I want to enjoy my day off.

If you don't have to drink the energy drinks after the spicy food, you may not get sick.
