Can anyone help with chronic nausea!

Posted by charles826 @charles826, Dec 2, 2024

My husband has chronic nausea every day. Has had all gi test and medicines. He says he can’t go on like this. Nothing works. Is there a doctor anywhere that can help him. He is 81 and suffering everyday.

Thank you will try. All meds don’t seem to work

I have had constant nausea for several months until I was prescribed a low dose of haldol. I take 0.5mg of haldol twice a day and it has helped my nausea.

I’d consider his diet as the culprit. Also consider a homeopathic practitioner to help you suss out what might be causing his symptoms. You need to begin thinking outside the box. Also from a Google search I found these natural suggestions listed below. I hope you both find peace and a happy gut.
From Google: To naturally relieve nausea, you can try:
Eating bland foods: Opt for crackers, toast, plain rice, bananas, or applesauce, which are easy on the stomach; eat small meals frequently throughout the day.
Drinking fluids: Sip on clear liquids like water, broth, or ginger ale, and consider cold drinks
Ginger: Consume ginger tea, ginger candies, or chew on fresh ginger as it has anti-nausea properties
Peppermint: Inhale peppermint essential oil, suck on peppermint candies, or drink peppermint tea
Acupressure: Apply pressure to the P6 point on your wrist, which is located between the wrist crease and the elbow
Aromatherapy: Inhale calming scents like lavender or lemon
Fresh air: Spend time outside to get fresh air
Deep breathing: Practice deep breaths to relax your stomach muscles
Lemon: Smell a lemon slice or drink lemon water
Hydration: Drink plenty of water to avoid dehydration

I know the reactions to certain medications but it's safer than suffering all the time. More positives than negatives for me.
Most of the side effects of for high doses of haldol not low dose of haldol.

I agree with you completely. I used to administer Haldol to patients when I was a psychiatric medication nurse in the 1980’s. I wanted you to see all the other drug interactions possible in the event you were ever placed on any of them. I didn’t believe your doctor would have prescribed it to you if you were taking any of those listed. Glad you found relief.

I suffer from nausea due to meds. My doctor prescribes ondensattron, which is what is used for cancer patients on chemo. It works effectively. Other things I do are: 1) lie down and relax; 2) drink soda and belch; the release of gas alleviates the nausea
