severe nausea at night - no vomiting though

:-D

So whenever i eat i feel like throwing up or at night i feel like throwing up means i have that disease??? What did u do first? Did you go to her doctor and told her whats going on?

I know this is a bit late, but has anyone in this question been scoped and checked for hiatial hernias??? Last year I started to feel exactly like you guys, feeling sick but not actually throwing up, then suddenly I became terribly ill and was throwing up in the evenings only. After months, it started happening in the mornings as well.. Then.. Constantly, all day, everyday. I had to go to the hospital at LEAST once a week to get pills and injections and be hooked up to be fed on IV. Finally a doctor in emerge decided to give me a scope down into my stomach to check out what was going on. (Xrays, ultrasounds, etc all showed up clear) finally I was properly diagnosed with a hiatial (hiatus) hernia. It happens sometimes for no reason. The stomach starts to swell or protrude into your esophagus, to the point where food, liquid cannot actually make it down to where it should be and therefore has no other option but to come back up. It happens more often at night because when you lay down, anything that has no made it down, start to come back up. The doctors told me I had to sleep either sitting up with pillows supporting me, or elevate my bed with blocks to a 45 degree angle. It comes and goes. I can go months without it happening but then it comes right back. Acidic foods, caffiene, alcohol, smoking, or a lot of coughing (pulls on the stomach) can make it act up again. Medication and a healthy diet can help it immensely :-)

Diagnosed with a hiatal hernia and STILL have night nausea almost constantly

Hello. I'm 17 years old, and recently got on birth control, about two months ago. I eat when I take my pill, and this usually prevents me from getting ill in the morning. And I do mean ill, I become very nauseous, I get intense pain my right side, and faint if I stand for too long. However, yesterday, I ate with my pill like usual, but woke up this morning experiencing the symptoms I listed above. Right now I feel nauseous, but ate with my pill like I usually do, just ate more then yesterday because I thought maybe i didn't eat enough. Any suggestions for dealing with nausea? I've tried drinking water and eating toast/crackers, but nothing really helps except sleeping, but it's almost impossible to do so when I feel this sick!

Hey all same as me every night I am sick and have to sleep tucked up in a ball I hate it I hardly get any sleep and am always tiard and I always need to go toilet for pees I'm so scard to go to the doctours as my family have bad medical problems

Have your doctor check you for Achalasia. It's the opposite of GERD. Instead of the esophageal sphincter being too open and letting acid up, it is too tight and won't let the food down. It took 17 years, but I was finally tested and diagnosed for it. I had a Heller Myotemy from a gastroenterologist trained in the procedure, and now I am fine. 17 years! They called it GERD, athsma, even said I had pancreatic cancer at one point. Hardest week of my life until a better doctor proved them all wrong. Good luck!

this isfunny I looked the problemup on Google and found this thread and I'm emetophobic

I have thesame problem and I'm only a kid but I asked my teacher and she said its probably because your hungry or need to go to the restroom. The other possibility is stress or you're worried a about something.

Please try eliminating gluten from your diet. Probably dairy. It will change your life. It did mine! :) You need to take probiotics and digestive enzymes three times daily to help your GI system as you recover from the damage gluten has done. You'll see improvement within two weeks. But continue supplements for about a year, at least. And do not eat anything for two hours before sleeping! Hope this helps! :)

I have the same problem iv been like this for 7 years only at nite and if I feel sick during day I take panic attack makes it so much worse currently havin a monent now and have wirk at 7 :( I find that freezing cold water over head and wrist and go out side an stand for a few mins tgen go back tk bed an try again if bit keep repeating its a horrible thing and if I stay anywhere its garenteed to happen me I also have an unreal fear of vomiting and I think this brings it on ur nit alone I alwYs have a stadh of really strong mints and take them also hope this helps x

Ask your dr to do a gastric emptying test. Could be gastroparesis. There are a couple of medications that might help you. I had it. It makes you absolutely miserable. The thing that helped me most was getting gluten out of my diet. And I'm very suspicious of gluten issues for you. If I were you, I'd get gluten out of your diet for three weeks, minimum, and see if it helps. Google "gluten free diet". There's a lot of info out there to help. Hope you're feeling better soon!

I have the exact same problem, nighttime nausea. Let me know please what your scope shows. I am due to have one in a couple of weeks. thank you

I completely understand how you're all feeling, im 18 and still wake my mum up each night to comfort me when I feel like im going to vomit. This started when I was 15/16 I have really bad bouts of anxiety and panic attacks and before I was diagnosed I created rituals for myself, I couldn't stay at school, couldn't eat or drink certain things because i'd deluded myself into thinking that I couldn't do it. I wouldn't stay out or go to new places unless I knew where the bathroom was and I knew that I could escape if needed. I spent the majority of my time either at home or at the doctors emergancy appointments begging them to help me. I've always been really phobic of being sick and the doctors diagnosed me with IBS, the tablets helped the cramps but not the sickness. I've eventually come out of my shell a little more since developing ways of calming the rest of my symptoms but the sickness doesn't seem to budge no matter what I do its really distressing

Hi I see this post has gone on for a long time. I'm 23 and hv had this problem on and off for 3 years. Yes I also hate throwing up. It normally lasts about 3months at a time for me. Thought it could b stress at one time but not sure anymore. I do suffer from anxiety but hv been fine for just over 2years.i get nausea after everything I eat. I love food and my only weight problem is over weight. Been for all the blood test. After a ultrasound after the last time this happened they found my spleen was slightly enlarged. Also been told I hv ibs.i have low blood pressure. So at nyt I do sometimes actually pass out from the dizzyness and nausea.way worse once the sun sets.cant handle wen this happens. I have two jobs and wen this happens I want to just curl up and go sleep.battle to fall asleep and sometimes wake up from the nausea. Taking anti-nausea doesn't work coz taking tablets makes me nauseas on a normal day. Dnt know how to handle is as always end up having to go off work for it which causes alot more steer. Help! My mom thinks it is all in my head coz the tests R clear even wen she has seen me pass out from it.

I am a 17 year old girl and I've felt nauseated constantly for roughly 1 1/2 years. I do get stressed very easily and I have been super worked up because of some bad news the family have received this Tuesday and since this news, my nausea has never been worse. I even had loose stools tonight (sorry for being graphic). I have always complained of feeling sick when going to school/college even when I was little but this has been really bad and I've never had it so bad. I have got a really bad phobia of throwing up and I'm paranoid that I may get a vomiting bug. This nausea started from Christmas 2012 when my brother and dad got the vomiting bug and I thought I was going to get it so I didn't eat. Now my eating has been so bad for the past year and a half and I've lost so much weight. one day I got it really bad while on college to the point I was in the bathroom for about half an hour and got sent home. I had a racing heart, severe nausea, shaking, dry mouth, dizziness and weakness and a burning sensation in my throat and chest. I went to the doctors and they said that it was acid reflux so I've been taking gaviscon whenever I've felt sick and I've also gone through 2 packets of tic tacs as I've found that mints can sometimes help my stomach settle while I'm out. My nausea tends to worsen at night though and I end up shaking and everything but I am not lay down. I do get the burning even when I'm sat up but that is not all the time. The nausea also worsens when I am thirsty. I find holding the lower part of my stomach helps it a little but I'm finding it hard to sleep. Any ideas on what it may be???
