A month later - including a hunt through the kitchen to cleanse it of any shred of onion, or anything that had ever touched an onion - we agreed that actually, morning sickness was bad. Two months later, we debated bringing my wife to the ER because she hadn’t eaten anything other than plain saltine crackers in several days. We did manage to avoid the hospital, but it was rough. I’m surprised more people don’t name their children after Zofran®. Women get such positive feelings about it, right when they’re considering baby names. For a girl, you could nickname her Zoe. For a boy, Frank.

Tell your friendly on-staff doctor to prescribe a compounded Ozempic + Zofran (anti-nausea drug) pill, and to say that it’s “medically necessary”. This is balderdash - the patient could always just take the two pills separately - but everyone is reluctant to challenge doctors about what’s really “medically necessary” or not.
