Ginger chews, by Prince of Peace help my nausea, but just short term.
The Original classic Relief Band is only $129 and has an adjustable band for most any size wrist. It also allows you to replace batteries, which the premier version doesn’t. Its electric signal seems stronger too. It’s worth a try…works for many.
Compazine is in the same class as phenergan, but not as effective, for me.
Olanzipine (Zyprexa) is a powerful medicine against nausea. Combine with mirtazipine to spike your appetite. This combination saved me from becoming malnourished as a result of chronic nausea. The Scopolamine patch has worked for some folks, but not for me. Good luck with these. Let us know how it goes…we can go from there. BTW, what further progress have you made on finding a cause for the nausea? Have you recently discontinued any Rx medication?

Forgot to ask, if not too intrusive, were you ever diagnosed with a reason for your nausea? No reply necessary if this is too personal. Thank you.

Bloodwork, endoscopy, ultrasound all negative for a reason. Having a breath test in November to measure overabundance of bacteria in "gut". Have been prescribed up to 4 zofran a day but it is constipating which is a problem I already have. I think constipation plays a role and because I have no appetite, I can't tolerate foods I unsed to love like vegetables and whole grains. Motility specialist has put in an order for a nutrition consult in the next two weeks. I have been trying to eat more and frequently. I do use Benefiber but all the other "fibers and softeners make me sick" so I have to go with suppositories and "the bag" to get things moving. Can't believe I am talking about this. Ginger does make me feel better and lorazepam takes the anxiety off the worry. I am off gabapentin and ropinirole and I am cutting back the medrol I believe it will take a while until those medications are out of my system. I thought the original classic relief band was discontinued but I will look at Amazon again to see. Thank you for your fine report, I appreciate it.
