Hi charles826, YUCKY YUCKY constant nausea is always the worst, especially after trying everything. For many years I would have 1-3 random episodes with no apparent reason, each episode would last about a week. There was little to no vomiting. I was working then, I owned a tax and bookkeeping business, so I couldn't stay at home during tax season. For me I used: during daytime: charcoal (but it needs to be used 1+hrs before or after anything else), ginger(high doses), hint: don't use ginger if vomiting is a probable action, because it Burns really bad coming out. Promethezine(Phenergan), peppermint gum, small pieces of peppermint candy, filtered water (carried my huge mug everywhere), nibbled constantly on dry cereal(fruit filled mini shredded wheat, corn Chex), never get hungry, stay on cool side, breathe thru nose only . Dramamine non-drowsy didn't exist back then. After work/evenings: loose clothing made a big impact for me.Dramamine (the drowsy one, I took dbl dose), take with lots of water, this dissolves extremely quickly and it burns your throat really bad., Phenergan, low dose Valium helps calm your stomach and your brain. A heating pad on stomach. Laying down, vs sitting relieves some pressure. Sip diluted chicken broth. Are you vomiting? Dry heaves? Temperature of the rooms and of your body, is it elevated? Bowels normal? What was the GI testing for? What did the doctor think about it? What happened 8 months ago ? Like move, change in anything you use :household cleaning, toothpaste, shampoo etc anything that has a scent/smell. I've no idea why it took me so long to figure out that my toothpaste was a big problem. Do you have migraines, neck pain, bloated/pain in stomach?
I know I am wordy, but unfortunately, for different reasons and for no reason I have ample experience with nausea from requiring hospitalization to just find out what works for me. I hope you find some relief FAST!!! Shelley

Thank you. I do use ginger. Phenergan makes me sleep. No vomiting at all. How do you use charcoal? Thanks for all your suggestions
