Functional Nausea
Hi I’m not sure if anyone suffers from Functional Nausea. Recently, I had an appt with a gastroenterologist. Her diagnosis is Functional Nausea. I’ve been scoped in the past. I’ve been battling this disorder for a few years. I battle it everyday with a loss of appetite plus heat in my esophagus. Even though, I’m nauseated, I am hungry at the same time. I’ve been on antidepressants in the past. Really, not taking too many meds. I’m on a ppi, blood pressure meds, amitriptyline and lorazepam. No anti nausea meds help, nor ginger and peppermint. I’ve been on bland foods also. I see a therapist. I’ve researched vagus nerve devices might help. My therapist wanted me to discuss this with my pcp. These devices are very expensive. Not sure if Medicare would pay for it. I’ve been working with my therapist to manage my stress, depression and anxiety. Has anyone dealt with Functional Nausea? Has anyone used a vagus nerve device for nausea? If so, did it help? Thank you for any suggestions and info regarding this.

Oh! I am soo relieved you're trying the Boost instead!! (I've learned the hard way...!!) I love you and want to help anyway I can!! Continued prayers to you my lovely special dear friend!!! Please keep me posted and I'll keep on praying!! Prayers love and hugs to you lovely precious lady!!
Oh!! I just googled Boost and some of them have the sucralose in them too.. (and some Ensures do not.. surprise!!) He uses Boost High Protein..(green and white bottle)..no sucralose.. please be sure to read the ingredients!! I don't want to give you any bad advice because I love you sweet lady!!
We brought the Ensure back. Unfortunately they wouldn’t take it back. It has to be the same brand to do an exchange. Maybe our daughter will want it. Instead, we bought Glucerna. The percentage was very good in vitamin d. No sucralose. Calories were decent. Thank you again 💕
