Throwing up before exams.

Its really getting a problem as my exams are getting longer. I dunno I just always have through GCSE's and AS levels and it was fine, like quickly throw up and its over, or dont eat and Im fine. I just get like really nervous.

But at the moment Im on steroids so my Mom makes me eat to take them, and so before every morning exam I vom. Im finding it really hard to concertrate in the exam because im so damn hungry, but all I can keep down is like lucozade.

Am I the only one this happens to?

perhaps this is a reaction to the steriods? if you really do need steroids, then perhaps you should get off them just for the exam season so you can do well.

I get really nervous like that too, but I went to my doctor before my exams started, and she gave me tablets to take, and they have really worked!!! I've not panicked or anything so far before any of my exams this summer.

Just try to put your exams into perspective- it's not the end of the world if you fail.

Good Luck!!!
