ORIGINAL: sl Thanks for your informative reply. I did notice that the first cup of the day was by far the most flavorful (and dark in color), but that was not the serving which caused me to get sick. As for psychological factors, I really don’t think there are any in my case. The first time I tried (about a month ago) it I gagged a little, but after that experience, I have gotten quite used to it and actually enjoy it. This was purely a case of my body reacting independantly of my mind/emotions. Forgot to mention ... just cuz you drank urine ... doesn't mean that it was the proximate cause of your emesis. It's obvious there can be multiple causes ... not the least of which might have been an incipient stomach bug that had previously been hidden. In fact, you could have ejected that bug sufficiently to not have fallen completely to it. I'm not saying that's probable ... I don't know. Am just saying there could have been lots of reasons, and I certainly don't know all of details about your case. You've given me no information that could rule out an incipient ulcer with or without Helicobacter. There are some situations we never know the etiology of. And when they get really arcane, it's surprising what can be found by relying on the 5 Elements Theory. And, my comment was only made to dispel some of the really poorly conjectured theories by folks who really don't know what they are talking about. A little knowledge is dangerous. But ... if you are fine w/ the taste & odor ... and you are used to it &/or enjoy it. If your Dom/me is in good health, not taking lethal doses of drugs or vitamins, and does not have a heavy metal concentration in his/her system, then enjoy yourself. A single hurl does not a problem make. If you get regular (or predictable) in your vomiting in response to drinking urine, THEN you need to have it checked out by a doc who can examine you and rule out other problems (take in a fresh urine sample of the Dom/me as well). And since western docs would raise their eyebrows ... you might find a more sympathetic Doc in one who is from India or someplace else where the practice has less of a stigma. ADomDoc San Antonio
