Nausea (Incapacitating)

Posted By Mary on August 21, 1998 at 13:22:25:







I am a 30 year old, 5'6", 153lb, healthy female.  For the past two months I have been suffering from severe nausea and it does not appear to be related to specific foods.  The occurences are random and sometimes occur in the morning or evening, however, these bouts never wake me at night.  Sometimes they are debilitating and one time it took a shot of Fenergan (sp?) to help me.  I am now taking Fenergan pills but a cause has not yet been identified.  The only other possible related symptoms I may have are difficulty breathing for about a year(but using an inhaler has helped and at time I suffer from fatigue. My doctor has tested me for H pylori and has tested my liver and kidney which all appear to be fine.  My hemoglobin came out to be slightly low at 11.9 but the doctor said that was negligible.  The only change in behavior I have had is actually eating more healthy (rice, chicken, egg whites, vegetables...) and starting to work out at a gym 3x/week, about 3 months ago.  Also, I am NOT pregnant (which everyone keeps asking).  This has been ruled out by a couple of doctors and I have been having semi-regular menstrual cycles and am presently having one.  Other medical issues I have been treated for but probably are unrelated include Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (symptoms are irregualr periods and severe headaches); Pleurasy (sp?)in Jan. 1998;  I have only one kidney because the other was given for a donation; anemia when I was younger;and fusion of C4,5,&6 due to a car accident in 1990.
