Suggest Treatment For Nausea Along With Acidity
Hi-
I am a 21 year old female, weighing 135 pounds and 5'5" tall. I have suffered from chronic nausea for over 12 years now. Throughout my childhood I saw a few different doctors and had many tests performed. The only diagnosis I was ever given was that I suffer from "migraines of the stomach" and was told there was nothing more that could be done for me. Since then the severity of my sickness has fluctuated, with the last year and a half being rather worse than usual. I am nauseated approx. 4 days a week, sometimes with several bouts in a given day. With the nausea I always have a slight headache, a hot face and feel very fatigued- I always have to lie down and try to sleep it off- which is difficult as I am busy with nursing school and work. Usually I do not vomit - I would say I only actually vomit about 20% of the time that I feel sick. For the past week and a half I have also had a severe burning in my stomach that antacids and heartburn medication does not touch. What could this be?
