What's the longest time you've gone without food and/or water and how was it? - The Lemmy Club

Three days, no food, no water. Nothing by mouth. Was in hospital, so I had an IV bag at least. And tons of dilaudid the whole time… it was quite the experience. They fixed me, though! Was in there for almost a week and a half tho. Getting to eat again was as awesome as the Dilaudid was.
What’s dilaudid and why were you in hospital?

I don’t wanna doxx myself for hospital reason, but let’s just say it was very uncommon and serious and I was apparently in significantly more pain than I thought I was. I’m never birthing a child, but multiple doctors told me it was worse than childbirth. Yayyyyy! Luckily I’m 99% better and it is not likely to happen again.

Dilaudid is morphene but MOREphene. Like, extra mega strong morphene. They gave me morphene at first and decided I could use something stronger. I did not complain!

Damn sounds scary. I hope I don’t get that whatever it is.

Any tips on how to avoid that?

Totally random! I wouldn’t worry about it—it’s very very rare, it’s not commonly terminal, and it generally never comes back. I’ve never met or heard of anyone else having it (which is why I don’t wanna go into detail, I’m sorry!) so there’s likely no chance you’ll ever have to worry.

But damn, was it hurty @w@ if my mind wasn’t already solidified about not birthing kids, it would be now hahaha
