Our daughter was similar, gave up glutten and felt better in 3 days....no dr. Mentioned glutten insensitivity at all but that and dairy effected her. She had upper GI stomach meds sickness for one year. Try it.

Reading all of these posts makes me realize that I am not alone, AND that many of you are looking to the wrong resources for your stomach woes. Causes of nausea and vomiting in the morning that most doctors don't check for, are not limited to but include bacterial or yeast overgrowth in your colon (antibiotics, anyone?), a parasite (of yes, they do exist, and can exist in you for years!), adrenal fatigue, thyroid problems and metabolic disorders. Routine lab work does not test for any of these things which can lead one feeling really frustrated as they leave the doctor with yet another prescription drug to "fix" the problem, when all the doctor is really treating is the symptom.
After years of headaches, nausea in the morning, low blood sugars and fatigue, I finally went to a functional medicine M.D. (there's only one here in the whole city of Buffalo!) because I started developing diarrhea so bad that I couldn't leave the house. Multiple doctors before her told me that I had anxiety or was too stressed (throwing it back on ME because they didn't know what was wrong, talk about wanting to punch your doctors!) and wanted to treat my symptoms with Botox, Tums, Metamucil, antidepressants, etc...but not one of them did a thorough review of my symptoms OR my health history (very important). If they had, they MIGHT have realized what my new functional medicine doctor did, which was that I have been on a gamete of antibiotics in my life for UTI's, and my IBS started shortly after a round of antibiotics and steroids last spring. Since your GI holds 4 lbs of good bacteria to digest your food and makes up 80% of your immune system, wouldn't it make since that my symptoms could be caused by a yeast and or bacterial overgrowth in my gut?! NOT ONE OF THEM SUGGESTED THIS!!!
She now has me on a specialized diet to prevent further yeast growth (low carb, no dairy, no wheat), natural antifungals to kill the yeast and enzymes to restore digestion (Nature's Sunshine Candida Clear for 28 days), probiotics to restore the good bacteria (VSL#3 and saccharomyces boulardii), and supplements to restore the health of my damaged intestinal cells (fish oil pills, 4 a day, and Metagenics - GI Sustain Leaky Gut Syndrome Medical Food, 4 scoops a day). She is also doing a stool culture to see if I have any bacterial overgrowth. I start the whole program tomorrow and am excited to start feeling better, but a little nervous because candida die off makes you feel much worst the first week from all of the toxins they release. C'est la vie, I will do whatever it takes to get well and get my life back!!
Please, if you are having nausea or vomiting see a functional medicine doctor. They specialize in finding the cause of disorders instead of just treating symptoms.
When I first started to get sick earlier this year I was in my last semester of nursing school but was too sick to continue going. I was given a medical withdrawal and will be heading back in January with a much different view of medicine and how to treat "mystery" illnesses. I plan to use this experience to help my patients. Working all things for good : )

Also, I just wanted to add that if you're a renegade and decide to diagnosis yourself with a candida overgrowth, make sure that you follow ALL of the steps to cure it or it will never go away as it is very hard to kill. You must follow all of these steps 1) Anti-Candida diet for at least one month (no wheat, no dairy), usually 4 months (make sure to have only 1 serving of grains and only 1-2 servings of berries) 2) Good probiotics to repopulate your GI tract (start them slowly so you don't get sick), 3) Natural anti-fungals to kill the b****r (caprylic acid, Paul D'Arco, oregano oil), 4) Enzymes for digestion, 5) Glutamine to heal the soft tissues in your intestines (a good natural source is bone broth), 6) Fish oil to reduce inflammation and 7) ZInc and selenium supplement (people with leaky gut don't absorb these well. Good luck!

I'm not sure on how you feel about alternative medicines, but a little bit of cannabis and a hot shower take care of my morning shortness of breath/nausea.

Hello, For about 5 years now I wake up with extreme nausea. I throw up all day.. It is the most incredible constant pain every day that I can explain. Over the years and being checked out by several doctors. They can never find anything wrong. They run scans take tests etc... But what I have come to realize is why they cant ever see anything int he scans is because what is causing the pain is some Some kind of Gas that is causing my upper abdomen to feel like my stomach is about to explode. I have been dealing wit this for so long every day I don't even feel like I have life sometimes.
There are 3 cures that work for men when this is happening.
1. Take a hot show the hottest you can stand i usually me to burp a lot releasing pressure in my stomach.. as well as the heat from the water drawing attention from pain in your stomach.!!
2. Believe it or not smoking marijuana significance helps with the nausea. I keep at least 3 bowls at all times just in case i get an attack.. (and I don't even smoke to get high i smoke to not b sick)
3. Pain killers. Help a lot cause a numbing sensation or at last put u to sleep and knock you out of your misery!!
Please tell me does this help and maybe we should compare notes to what our diet is ect... cause I have never felt a pain like this ever. I am in so much pain sometimes i and delirious
Is they any way I can contact you!!
