i started getting bouts of nausea 2yr ago, bouts would last 4-8wks, from waking to bedtime, moderate if just sitting or laying, became more severe with movement exertion, l,d try to do jobs l0min at a time and need to sit due to severity it would settle after l0-20min,, l looked pale and drawn with it, felt tired and off it, napped a bit, was off food, lived off tea and a biscuits, lost weight, near 2stone over months. l never threw up, or felt a need to, but think if l,d eat normal meals l could have but no appetite for meals. Then it would settle for weeks, and flare up. It became constant from Oct, saw gp, later gastrologist, had scan, scope, a bit of inflammation seen but not thought enough to cause severe symptoms. Put on omprazole, after 3 wks no improvement, l stopped taking them also the daily anti b l,d been given as preventative for intersticial cystitus flare ups taken for several year, Started using probiotics, milk thistle, bio yogurt, drinking spring water only, take ginger in tea,had already tried gaviscon and usual chemist stuff, but it had gone on for months and is very debilitating, disabling at worst on exertin, l,d no partner or family to help,poor me, 2 sons live distance away, so it was a nightmare trying to get the essential shopping, and household jobs,l had groceries delivered, big help, chemists also delivered, grateful, so just did essential jobs best l could, l thought gps and gastrologist had little empathy, when it really does get you down when its every day from waking. l got info and advice on here with diet, supplaments, as a few others had simular. l did slowly start to eat a bit, had to as l was getting no vits, mins, protein, diet mainly carbs. l had an aversion to many previously eaten foods, went off all processed ready meals, tinned foods, even soup, went off milk eggs
it came down to tea with ginger. cereal biscuit, evening a small meal pots, hash brown, fries, all baked, most veg ok, but went off salad which l,d loved, little chicken or fish, also rice, pasta, noodles, always small portion and plain, previously l,d swollen up after meal felt bloated and belched a lot, discomfort with it, so even when feeling a bit less nauseous, usually eve on low active day l,d still have small plain meal, but could still eat chocolate. Its now been settled a few week, but still feel it mildly but can move about, do jobs, go shopping without being overcome with nausea, big relief physically and mentally. l do get pelvic pain, think due to bladder inflammation bouts, adesions from surgery, maybe nerve damage, but anxious about using pain killers, do use heat patches or rubbing gel. l,m relieved its settled, be it always the mild feeling but can live with that ok, Still dont know what causes it or what settles it, flares it, maybe long term anti b use stopped, light plain diet, drinking just spring water, using pro biotics, dont know if allergic reaction to something, in food, water, l am an allergic person anyway, rhinitus long standing, few skin probs, also penicillian and a few other meds, and get tinnitus along with it, l wish l did know, but gp and gastrologist no wiser than me. Doesnt seem to be any quick fix for it, for me or others on mbs l read, but think you need to see gastrologist to check youve not gastritus or stomach bug, Sorry l can offer more pos advice, there is quite a bit of info on gastritus thread, but see your doc and best wishes.
