C. diff, SIBO and chronic nausea
I started 8 months ago with either food poisoning or a stomach flu. I have never recovered. I have had every test done and continue to suffer from nausea everyday. In the middle of this I was diagnosed with and treated for c-diff twice but because I didn’t have the classic symptoms the drs at Mayo thought they were false positives. I also was diagnosed and treated for SIBO twice. The nausea everyday which is where this all started never went away. Has anyone had this and come up with a solution?

I have chronic nausea and live on Zofran that dissolves on my tongue. I have many gastro diseases. The generic forms don't work on me they make me vomit. I take 8mg and I take it sometimes every hour. Sometimes I can go several hours. But I can't take it 8 hours apart. Through the year's my gastroenterologist has told me to take it however it will help me. Sometimes it doesn't. Chronic nausea is awful and I pray your husband finds something to take the edge off. Good luck 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you. He also takes the same.
Hello, I am surprised his doc hasn't given him anti-nausea medication to help him be comfortable until they find out answers. I have a non-cancerous tumor in my stomach which makes me very ill at times and feeling nauseated all the time. When my nausea medication stops working on me, I use something I do naturally with my nose, and I just sniff it and 100% of the time my nausea is completely gone it's called Moxe nausea relief maybe have him try that until they find answers for him. Good luck! I hope he finds his answers very soon!
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.
Thank you
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
@tjanet ..I want to share a Mayo Climic article with you and your husband to be aware. Knowledge in power and this covers drug interactions with haldol you should know.
https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements/haloperidol-oral-route/description/drg-20064173
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.
