Nausea when eating food

[Shelly321]

Whenever I eat, I tend to get nausea and I don't understand why.  Sometimes, after I begin eating, my nose becomes very sensitive and any smell of food makes me nauseous.  I am also having trouble eating chicken and I feel that if I do, I will throw up.  Should I be concerned?

You might need to re-post this as a separate question to the doctor.  You should get some feedback from him then.

yes you should be concerned but this does not sound like an emotional eating issue unless you are already extremely thin. Otherwise I suggest you see your internist.
