Constant Nausea and vomiting Posted: 12-24-07 19:00pm
I am 21 years old..
I have been suffering with constant nausea
and vomiting since May of 07. I am on 1200
mg of prescription Zantac and 900 mg of
Tigan (nausea relief pills) and nothing
seems to work. I am not pregnant. I have
woken up every morning for the past 8
months throwing up stomach acid. (Dark
yellow bile) When I try to eat something I
throw it back up. The Tigan helps some and
marijuana helps a lot to keep the
excruciating nausea under some what
control.
Test done:
5/22/07 EGD (normal)
5/24/07 Gastro Empty (normal)
6/27/07 PH test (didn%u2019t complete
because there was no way we were getting
that tube down my nose!)
7/16/07 Bravo (could not sedate me) the
doctors wont try again on me.
9/27/07 UGI-SBF *Upper GI Series
(deglutition and esophageal motility are
normal. The GE Junction is unremarkable.
No signs or gastric masses or active
ulcers and mucosa seems Intact. * Small
Bowel Follow Through (preliminary
abdominal film is unremarkable. Small
bowel is normal. No intrinsic or extrinsic
masses are suggested.
I do have irregular food habits because of
my nausea and i do skip quite a few meals
but when i feel like i can keep it down i
try to eat all day so my stomach will have
something on it. I dont eat oily or spicy
food it kills me along with alcohol. I do
feel bloated like i cant eat anymore.
Bowel movements are ok.
It is very debilitating and hard to go
through the day. I also feel the same way
as zenaleigh does.
%u201CBut some how they gotta help it go
away. It%u2019s getting to the point where
I can%u2019t eat. Everything I eat or
drink causes nausea.%u201D This is the
truth! What could be causing this? The
three specialists I have seen don%u2019t
know what to do for me. So they referred
me to MUSC (medical university of South
Carolina) to see a specialist there. Can
anyone give me any kind of advise???
