Everyday 5 minute period of nausea and gagging. NEVER throw up

Let me tell you briefly my issue.

I am 21 years old and i work at a brewery. almost EVERY single day for about 2 years (with periods of time of no symptoms) I get a severe nausea attack. I have to sit down, breathe and i always feel like I am going to throw up so I start gagging, but I never end up throwing up. I cant do anything during these periods because it is so severe. Could it have to do with allergy of beer? lactose? or gluten? possibly IBS? I have no idea. and I WOULD LOVE some help.

Oh, yeah, I think it's an allergy.  But good thing is, there are medicines you can take to prevent an allergic reaction.  I had an allergy to some house rabbits we kept for a number of years, but it affected my breathing, I thought I was going to die, had NO IDEA it was the rabbits.  So, I go to my regular doc, he instantly identifies it as allergy, and i took some sort of prescription allergy pill every day until we stopped keeping rabbits many years later.  Could be your allergy is affecting your gut if you are tasting any of the brew in various stages, or it may be just simply the hops in the beer or whatever it might be will usually affect the gut for whatever reason.

So, I suggest you go to either your regular doc or to an allergist, tell him the situation, and hopefully he will not only know precisely what the allergen is, but of course will also be able to give you some medicines you can take daily, since this is a survival thing, keeping your job and all.  Hope this helps a little.
