Chronic nausea.

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 .

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.

Thanks for this info. I was given Amitryptoline last year for nausea but it stopped working after around 6-7 months. Maybe the dosage was too little (1 10 mg. Tab at night). The dr. Recently upped the dosage to 20 mg (10 mg. in AM
And 10 mg. In evening). I will discuss dosage and timing with my dr. The thought of something working is exciting. My nausea has been debilitating. I have taken Zofran since summer of 2022 and it has stopped working too. Thanks again.
