Any suggestions for my chronic nausea?


Question:
It all started April 19th. While on a plane, I was struck with horrible nausea, and spent several hours on the floor of the Denver Airport bathroom. Since then I've been to the ER once, two different medical doctors, and a therapist, and still no one can figure out what is wrong with me. I have general queasiness about 90% of the time, and sometimes it becomes worse nausea. When the nausea is REALLY bad, I have diarrhea but that has only happened 3-5 times. I get hungry, eat something, and get queasy as a result. Queasiness is worse when I move. I'm not in any pain at all.

I have ruled out the following:
Bacteria
Virus
Parasite
PMS
Pregnancy
Bladder Infection
Kidney Infection

So..my actual questions...any suggestions on what this might be? I'm getting a little tired of the 3.5 months of nausea.

Second question...any suggestion on how to get rid of the nausea? Pepto doesn't do much and I can only eat so much ginger.

Thanks!

Answers:
It might be your vision. Get your eyes checked! It could be a form of vertigo or other eye focus problems.

Also, it could be your inner ear. See an ear/nose/throat doctor if your eyes check out okay. Inner ear controls balance and the problem could be there - ear pressure problems from the plane, broken ear drum, etc.

Peppermint always works for me when I'm nauseous. Chew a piece of gum, dab peppermint oil on your wrists or temples, or make peppermint tea.
When you sleep, try lying on your right side. My friend told me that when you lay on your left, acid makes you have nausea. But on the right side, it goes down.
There are several gastrointestinal diseases that it could be, however try eating peppermint when you get neausaus. I suffer from chronic pancreatitis and keep a box of candy canes around just for that.

Have they looked at sugar levels for diabetes? What about an ear problem? There is a great anti-nausea prescription called Promethiazine that helps a lot. I am sure your doctor would call this into the pharmacy for you. Best of luck to you!!
