Chronic nausea: What helps?

Posted by stubeckj70 @stubeckj70, Nov 25, 2023

I am a 73 year old woman looking for someone with similar issues: Limb-girdle Muscular Dystrophy with
cardiopathy(38 years) and now in congestive heart failure; Gastroparesis due to nerve damage of digestive system. (7 years); Pacemaker x 30 years due to slow pulse rate and now it is 0 and I am 100% paced. Pacemaker replaced 5 times
and in 2018 had cardiac resynchronization and defibrillator placed. Chief compliant: Constant nausea .

Hi @shelleyw, thanks for posting. Yes, you did the right thing in advising that the things you do work for you. I appreciate that. Your post was not done improperly.

Charcoal was popular on social media and touted by supplement companies a few years ago. Hence we jumped in to post evidence-based information about its use.

Activated charcoal is effective for clearing out toxins in emergency poisoning situations for specific toxins. There have been a few studies that have researched charcoal for indigestion: to reduce gas and bloating, and to treat and prevent diarrhea. But the evidence remains inconclusive.

I have learned to be more careful. I definitely will be.

I have the same and it’s debilitating. I use Zofran it sometimes helps, it’s only 4mg sometimes I take two a day. It’s my only line of treatment
