Hello. That sounds terrible. As someone prone to nausea in response to many drugs, and as someone who had pregnancy related “morning” sickness 24 hours a day for months, I have a bit of an inkling of your misery from nausea.

You’ve been through so much… What do your Doctors think is the root cause of your nausea?

Hello, I had chronic nausea for 4 years after colon surgery. Finally my GI doctor prescribed
Nortriptyline 25MG, I take one capsule at bedtime and it began working very soon.
I hope that this can give you relief.

I pray that this works for you. I care!

Have nausea every day. GI dr has done every test and I have been prescribed many meds that don’t work. Have bought many over counter items that don’t work. This is more than eight months now. Even tried Cbd and thc gummies. No help. Is there anyone who can help??

Even though the nausea is a symptom of something,you could try Agastache Tummy formula syrup. It works wonders for me. Also acupuncture.

When considering complementary treatments or supplements, be open-minded yet skeptical. Learn about the potential benefits and risks.

Keep in mind that natural substances can also have toxicities, adverse side effects and treatment interactions. Supplements are not regulated and can be marketed without rigorous clinical testing.

Activated charcoal is used in the emergency treatment of certain kinds of poisoning. It helps prevent the poison from being absorbed from the stomach into the body. Activated charcoal has not been shown to be effective in relieving diarrhea and intestinal gas.

The side effects of taking charcoal are nausea, vomiting, constipation and diarrhea. It is not known how charcoal might affect the balance of gut bacteria in the body, especially long-term.

My husband is 81 and suffers also from chronic nausea. Have tried everything. What is left to do???

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
