What Causes Episodes Of Nausea And Sickness?
over the past 4 or 5 months I have a day or two occasionally that I am nauseous and generally do not feel well. Often vertigo is present. The weird thing is my daughter (adult who does not live with me has been experiencing the same thing). Could it be some viral thing that just won't go away? She feels bad more often than I do, but for me it is about every 2 or 3 weeks.

Hello
Nausea of long duration on and off is not viral infection.
It is most probably gastritis which can cause acidity, nausea and vomiting.
Another cause could be infection of the gastrointestinal tract which could have caused nausea.
However other causes like vestibular diseases have to be ruled out as there is vertigo.
Hope this helps
