Persistent nausea

I’ve had nausea for many many years. I was recently diagnosed with gastroparesis after being hospitalized for being dehydrated and not being able to eat due to nausea for almost three weeks. I had a gastric emptying test done. I was put on reglan but had to stop because of nasty side effects so now I’m back to losing weight and being nauseous and having trouble eating again. Zofran works sometimes. I’m seeing a new GI who is going back to basics to see if he can figure out if Gastroparesis is actually what’s going on. All I know is I have no appetite, am constantly nauseated, and keep losing weight. I went from 144 to 112 and still going down.

I also had gastroparesis for about the first year of Long COVID. It is miserable as the stomach empties very slowly so eventually even the thought of food makes you nauseous. I found eating very small meals throughout the day helped and I used Iberogast to help with the bloating and nausea. I had to restrict all fatty foods as they would take forever to digest...but it was mostly better about 2 years in.

zonfran helped sometimes in pill form, but I started the Zofran injections at home long time ago and best thing ever. Ask your dr. about zofran injection to have at home when needed. Hope you feel better!
