Constant nausea

.Execute.

New member
Let me start off by giving a little information on myself. I am a 25 year old female. I had 5 bleeding ulcers in high school, which I was hospitalized for. I also had gallstones and had my gallbladder removed. I am a recovering drug addict. I am on methadone though and am in the process of weaning myself off of it. I have hepatitis c. I have anxiety and am taking klonopin for it. I also take adderall. I had my first child August 2006, and the entire nine months I was nausaus. I had constant "morning sickness" all day. I had to be hospitalized at about seven months pregnant because I got so sick that I couldn't stop throwing up. Oh yeah, I've also been bulimic and anorexic, but am not anymore. I have acid reflux. When I had my ulcers it was H.pylori. After my child was born, the nausea and vomiting subsided but over the past year or so I've began feeling like that again. I'm not pregnant. I got on depo provera after my baby was born and haven't had my shot since March possibly. I've tried everything and nothing works. In the past few months, the most recent being last Tuesday and Wednesday, I've had violent vomiting episodes where I couldn't stop. I will go for hours, until I'm just dry heaving. Even after that I'm still nausaus. It's miserable. It's hard to move sometimes because I'm scared I'll get sick. Having a small child makes it very impossible to feel this way. I'm unable to do the things that I want and need. I've always had a higher resting heart beat than normal...at least in the 90s. I've had on several occasions at the doctors office had a hard time having my blood pressure taken by the electronic device. It shows that I'm not alive. It doesn't seem to be worse when I'm more stressed or anxious. I don't know what to do. It's so miserable to always feel like I'm going to throw up. When I do get sick, it feels like I'm dying. Can anyone please help me? I don't know where to start or what to do. Any ideas on what this could be. FYI: In delivery, I started feeling nauseaus and the nurse gave me a throw up bowl and that's what delivered my child...my being sick. No kidding, I was sick the entire 9 months to the point that I thought something might be wrong with my baby, but there's not. Please help me! I can't live like this any longer! :(
 
Have you been checked for H-pylori again? I have had that , my didn't get to a ulcer yet. I know I felt awful. H-pylori is a very nasty bacterial infection. If you haven't had blood test, maybe you need to suggest this.

hey-

i am a chronic pain patient....its been 13 years now- i am also a cancer suvivor and i know about nausea and it SUUUUUUUCKS!


i have not found anything that works for me yet but maybe these suggestions might work for you and your doctor.


if you want to go the medical route:

beladona & comapzine both work well- but do NOT mix compazine with any pain medication....you will slurr and randomly fall asleep like you are narcoleptic...at least i did.

i have been on every nausea med suggested, and seeing i have been sick since i was 3, that is a lot. finally, i was told in a desperate and confidential manner to start smoking pot. haha....i already was.

if you want a natural approach to nausea-
go for anything with ginger/ ginger root in it.
ginger tea works well, as does any type of mints.
there is something called queeze ease that is a homeopathic remedy. its in a silver tube and you just run it under your nose and breathe deeply. it helps temporarily.

honestly, i am incredibly nauseas right now so i have to lay down.
if these help you, cool.

and if you know of anything i don't, PLEASE tell me!
