I think you missed my last message....still have nausea

Hi:
I've been battling with nausea since June of 97 on and off. I've had all sorts of tests done with the only finding being that I had H. pylori. After 3 treatments for this and my last endoscopy done on December 16th, 1998 I was told that I didn't have the H. pylori anymore. I was told I do have irratation of my stomach lining. It was reddened but he didn't know why. Could this be causing such horrible nausea? I'm taking Sucrafate and Cisapride for this and was told I would have to take this for several months to fix the lining. I take the Sucrafate 4 x a day one hour before meals. I take the Cisapride (20 mg.) 3 x a day, 15 minutes before eating. I was free of the nausea for 10 days, and then it came back and I've had it for the past 5 days. I find it very hard to work and function with it. Should the medication have stopped the nausea? What would cause the irratation now that I don't have the H. pylori anymore. Once the nausea goes away why does it come back. I think there must be something else that is making me nauseous. What would be my next step now in getting help?   Is there food I should be avoiding (I don't notice any difference with what I eat)? What is the process that the stomach lining has to go through to heal and is this possible to heal with my medication?   The specialist told me he didn't know what the problem is and this is the third specialist I've been to that doesn't have a clue.  What could I do now?  Please help.
Tests I've had:
Hida Scan (gall bladder)
C.T. ( of brain)
3 endoscopies
blood work (B 12 deficient)
gastric emptying study
barium meal
ultra sounds
MIR of pancreas
All normal except for the B12
