- Tips For Nausea & Vomiting | Gastroparesis & Chronic Nausea
Hi guys! Here are my top tips and advice for chronic nausea and vomiting , which I thought would be appropriate for gastroparesis awareness month. There are a range of natural remedies, practical things to do, as well as two medications if you'd rather try a more medical treatment . Hope this helps & you're able to get a bit of relief :)

The meds mentioned are only available in some pharmacies over the counter & may vary between countries/regions, but are worth asking about! Ps, pls turn on captions/subtitles if needed 💗
Where do you buy the travel bands? My Mom is 74 years old and is very nausea she is on promethazine but I am trying to find something else. The promethazine makes her tired.
@@NickyLKing search SeaBands on Amazon, or you can buy them at the pharmacy. And maybe schedule another appointment with a GP and see if there’s anything else they can do
@@NickyLKing Walgreens and CVS
@@rolandajones6898 Thanks Hun!!❤🙏
Yes, i’m a pharmacy technician in the us and promethazine is by rx only, and that is because it can be abused to make certain recreational drugs (purple drank or lean). my pharmacist recommended for my nausea (i have ibs) the sea bands as well as high strength ginger capsules. i have really bad side effects from promethazine and instead i’ve been on zofran (ondansetron) for a few months, but that’s also only by prescription. some pharmacists say pepto can help sometimes, and that’s over the counter. in humans, though, anti nausea medications just don’t work very well in general. i used to work in vet medicine and there are fantastic anti nausea medications that work very very well in animals, but nothing like that really exists in humans unfortunately.
I have emtiphobia (fear of throwing up) and anxiety which make feel like I gonna throw up all day, and these tips have really helped!!! Thank you so much ❤️
You’re welcome! Glad they have helped, I have emetophobia too!
love you girl! such a helpful video!
Izzy Kornblau love you too! And thanks! I hope so!
Hi Georgina! This was so helpful, thank you so much. I wanted to share that I don't think there is a line for what is common sense or isn't! I am very new to gastroparesis, currently in my 4th (and most severe by far) flare up but but this is the first time I actually have a name for what is going on with my body. Learning from other people's experiences here on RUclips and tiktok has helped me the MOST! More than talking to doctors, or reading online about it. What Im trying to say is that even things that seem common sense, are not common sense for a lot of us! Kind of embarrassing to admit, but it's the truth because with my GP symptoms my normal natural remedies don't work! So please, if you feel like it keep sharing even the tips that seem silly for you to share because you think they're common sense. Im on the other side of the screen watching and full of hope because I found you, who has experienced what I am and it is very helpful to see what works for you. Thank you!
This is really good to know, I will keep sharing everything I can think of, thanks for telling me! And I hope your flare up settles soon, if it hasn’t already 💗
Georgina, I can definitely relate to you and I feel your pain in a way I wish we never had to share. Thank you for all your help and encouragement, getting up when you’ve got the flare ups seems like a mission on its own.
Thanks for another helpful video, Georgina! I so needed this today ❤️
You're welcome, Kayla! Hope you feel a bit better soon
Thankyou very very much,I have had nausea for 24 hours...I really needed this advice.Invaluable.Thankyou..thankyou....thankyou!!!!
Brenda Hines you’re welcome, I hope something helps settle it a little!
This has been so helpful. Thank you!
Hope you feel slightly better soon 🫶🏽
ive been feeling so nauseous at night for the past 2 days, i wake up in the middle of the night feeling like i'm actually going to vomit and on top of that i have emtiphobia which makes it worse..i'll be trying these out so thank u sm :)
Hope they help!
thank you so much for this video! it made me relieved when you said you’re also including tips for those who struggle with eating. i take adderall for adhd accompanied by many other meds for other things. i really struggle to eat or have an appetite and when i’m nauseous food is extremely nauseating to me because of the adderall. Thank you for these tips 🙏
you're welcome
Thanks for the video! I've had chronic nausea nearly 24/7 for a little over two years now and nothing has worked. Definitely going to give some of your ideas a try
Orange 22 Fishing hope you can get a bit of relief from it! I was dealing with severe, chronic nausea for about 2 years before I got diagnosed so I know how tough it can be. Try to keep persevering at the doctors too, they may be able to prescribe an antisickness even before/without finding out the cause. Keep hanging in there in the meantime
@@GeorginasJourney Sorry you've had to go through it as well. I've been seeing one of the top doctors here in the states but i think
I am going to try another doctor. I won't give up until I get relief. This has been ruining my life for way too long.
My prayers are with you on your journey as well
Orange 22 Fishing yeah, it’s worth seeing someone else if you’re not getting anywhere with that one! I almost got to the point where I didn’t think there was any hope of it getting better, but if you keep advocating for yourself, it can and will :) Thanks :)
Hello again Georgina, thanks for your quick response. I wanted to let you know that before my accident I had been told that my bloodwork showed that I had titers which meant I had an autoimmune disorder waiting in the wings. This was told to me when I went for a second opinion as I had been diagnosed with Lupus. Luckily, my back doctor recommended the second opinion as he felt the young doctor had made an improper diagnosis, and had put me on way to many meds. I had to wait 3 months for my second opinion and this dr. told me that I did NOT have Lupus, just yet. But something was lurking about. He then told me the saddest news about all of this is that your doctor wiped out your immune system with all of the meds you have been on. YIKES. So thankfully, I did get off of the meds and a few years later I ended up with my first of five surgeries for endometriosis. This was a time in life that was most difficult due to the constant pain. As it turned out I had so many adhesions and my left ovary kept getting cysts which would rupture. Luckily my second surgeon was a professor at Stanford University and he was able to help me out the most after 2 surgeries which left me in great shape for 15 years. Then, after that the symptoms came back and he fixed me up again. Fast forward to my car accident, and my new complications all started to show up. First, the diabetes and the removal of my gall bladder. Then about five years later I had my first episode of Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA) which left me in the ICU for six nights. I was so sick they told my boyfriend that I would likely be “dead in bed” by morning had we not gone to the ER. Then, the next diagnosis was . . . Gastroparesis. All of which I had read about but thought that diabetics did not get it until they had been sick for 25 years or more. However, this did explain why I was eating right but could not control my blood sugars due to the Gastroparesis (GP). Well, my body had a different roadmap to follow. My point is that trauma can cause diabetes & gastroparesis. Once I did more research on the GP I realized I had all of the “causes” of getting it. I lost about 60 lbs. and was 2 lbs. away from a feeding tube and they put me on Cymbalta. I gained back all of my weight and another 20 lbs. due to the need for more insulin. During this weight loss I too had a nasty nurse during another episode of DKA and she told me flat out that I was lying when I told her how sensitive I was to fast acting insulin and that my blood sugars had gone as low as 25 one night. She said I would not have been able to walk or talk. So the next day I was asleep and sure enough she gave me 8 units of a fast acting insulin and I woke up and asked what numbers were my blood sugars at? She said, 387. I then asked her, did you really NOT believe me when I told you how sensitive I am, as I had told her that one unit could drop me by 100 points. So basically, she nearly killed me. I told her to get ready as it was going to be a bumpy ride and not pretty. Luckily, my boyfriend showed up just in time to save my life as a petite nurse was trying her best to give me the injection which can bring your sugars up extremely fast (sorry, I cannot think of the name of the medication at this time). But as my boyfriend did take over he was able to get me dosed in time. All of the machines were beeping away and I was about to go into a coma. Same day they gave me a medication (Reglan) which I had told them I was allergic to, but again they did not believe me. The meds make me go spastic for about 6 hours and I look like a marionette puppet. Next, I wake up with a feeding tube down my throat and I am still vomiting. (More faking!!) This was nearly one of the worst stays I have ever experienced. I was so glad to make it home. Recently I was back in the ER for high blood sugars and hovering with another episode of DKA. I asked for my long term insulin (Lantus) which they never gave me and sure enough 8 hours later I was in full on DKA and in need of spending 3 more nights in the ICU. So poor health and bad nursing just don’t go together, do they? So I can only relate to you somewhat even more now. I still deal with the GP and it flares up my incontinence I believe due to the fact that the food is stuck right above my pubic bone and I have a diabetic colopathy right in that area. So one bad accident truly can be a life changer. I see your stories and your friends and I send you an abundance of light and love to keep sharing with each other as you will need it forever!! I am just so glad my accident did not happen until I was 42 and that I was able to have a somewhat active life before then. Now, I am just happy to be well enough to get around some, eat a little, pee a lot and pray for some laughter every day. Now with the Corona virus and being on “Stay in Place” orders I am grateful to already know how to do so without going too crazy. I obviously read over RUclips stories for hope and inspiration. I have now glanced over your videos and I think I am caught up with all that we have somewhat in common!! Thanks for the GP ideas and I love it that you are friends with Izzy as I have followed her story also, along with Hannah. Thank god we have the internet to reach out to those who share similar stories and to keep us filled with some hope and encouragement. Today’s search was all about whether I had missed a new treatment for incontinence and/or GP. I so do not want any further surgeries, but if it is meant to be I know from people like you and your friends, I can do this!! So thanks again for all that you share. You have the same bright light as Izzy and it is a joy to see. Stay well, stay strong and keep up the faith - you are an inspiration to many!! Sending more sunshine and peace 🌞 and ☮️ from sunny Arizona!! GastroGal
I'm so sorry you went through all of that, but am glad you're doing better these days! And I agree that the internet is such a blessing and has really helped a lot of people (including us) realize that we aren't alone in many of these health struggles! Hope this finds you on a good day, Georgina
I'm going to say a prayer that you are better.I hope that's ok with you.
Brenda Hines thank you for your prayers. I am open to getting all of the help I need, so thanks again for taking the time to reach out. Say “HI” to God and all his angels and healers who are currently walking the earth - I give them a big thanks also. Your kindness is a warm welcome. May you enJOY your day, sending love ❤️ and light 🌟 from sunny 🌞 Arizona🌵🌻🌴
Just found your channel Georgia ❤️. You have given me such motivation to restart my channel! Thanks for the tips! Even on my 9th week in hospital for my gastroparesis (I thought I was a vomiting ‘pro’) I still took something from this video 😊. Looking to do the Chronic illness tag thanks to your video! Xxx
Sorry I meant Georgina! Autocorrect!!!
Chronicallyasmin hope it helps a little! And good luck with your channel!
Chronicallyasmin I just subscribed 😊
Bless you Georgina, had this dreadful problem for over 25 years, GP's put you on a conveyer belt of tests and nothing worked, I am going to try some of your suggestions. Thank you.
Hope you find something that helps a little bit, Paul! If you try the buccastem/prochlorperazine & it helps, I’d recommend asking your GP for a prochlorperazine prescription to make it more affordable :)
@@GeorginasJourney Thank you so much I am 65 and suffered this since 2006, I sincerely hope you find a solution, thank you once again I will keep your page updated.
I have a fear of vomit/vomiting, and have been feeling really nauseous the last couple months. I recently had two sickness bugs and since then I’ve been feeling anxious around food and drink.
For me fresh air and mint gum helps. Mint gum is the best one for me.
It’s really reassuring to find someone who is in a similar position to me! Thank you for this video! Hope you’re now doing ok.
I have this fear too! I made a video about my experience with severe emetophobia but I think it’s probably not a good idea for you to watch that in case it’s triggering, as sickness bugs are my trigger too. I’m glad the mint gum is helping a bit though ☺️
As someone who has had gastroparesis for over 20 years, you may want to give a quick note about other countries and medication availability: Promethazine, Prochlorperazine, & Metoclopramide are available only by prescription in the United States and other countries.
In the United States, over the counter anti-nausea medications include Diphenhydramine (Benadryl), Dimenhydrinate (Dramamine), Doxylamine (Unisom), Meclizine, and Cyclizine -- these are all older antihistamines that are very sedating. You can also get candied Ginger, which is non-sedating, but it may be very spicy and irritating to some people.
If they are available where you live, a Neurogastroenterologist (doctors that specialize in digestive motility) can be a godsend in diagnosing and treating gastroparesis // nausea.
Thanks, I pinned a comment about this 2 years ago, so it’s the first comment people see when they click on this video ☺️
I’m in the USA we don’t have those over the counter meds. The best I got was a zofran bottle once but you need it prescribed.
Sydni Bargel We’ve realised that most places don’t do phenergan over the counter here either, idk why they did at my universities pharmacy. & zofran is A LOT stronger which is why it’s prescription- you can’t even get it with a prescription here (unless you have a feeding tube or cancer).
Sydni Bargel it’s worth asking if they have any antisicknesses over the counter if you need one though, they’ll probably have something
Georgina's Journey thank you for the help and these videos btw 🙏❤️ I’ve been going through issues since I was 16. And that’s crazy Zofran is a life saver, I literally would be suffering so bad without it. I currently ran out a little bit ago and am trying to get it prescribed again because I’m not having a fun time lol. I was even put on stronger meds than that a while back when I got a staph infection in my colon.
Often, the natural tips for nausea can be as effective or more effective than the medications! There's research on ginger being more effective than dramamine in specific, without the drowsy side effects!
Promethazine (Phenergan is the name brand) is by prescription only in the united states. A nice perk is that it's also available as an intramuscular injection or, if diluted, an intravenous injection, so you can bypass the digestive system completely. Although intimidating, it has helped me as a plan B choice. This has really helped me avoid wasting time and boatloads of money in emergency room visits // hospitalizations.
I suffer with nausea every day and I will definitely try these out! I have IBS but to be honest I don’t think that’s what’s causing the nausea. I also have severe emetophobia and am scared to go back to school because of it.
Katie M hope they help! A doctor might also be able to prescribe something for your nausea if you emphasise how much you’re struggling with it! & I’m not sure if you’ve seen my emetophobia video but I struggle with that immensely too, I hope you can work on it and/or get help, it really is a horrible thing to live with so I completely relate to you with that 😌
Georgina's Journey Awh thank you so much for your reply☺️. I talked to my doctor and it turns out I have a very high iron count but she is emphasising this more than my nausea. She said these two things may not be related. The waiting list for psychology is also 2 years :(. I actually just saw your video on emetophobia and it really put me at ease to see someone my age have this fear also. Thank you for sharing your story! I take a tablet for my nausea but it’s really bad for my heart so idk what to do but I will definitely use your tips (I really want to try the sickness bands!)
ice pack on the back of the neck, don't mix your hot and cold foods&liquid, try to space out eating and drinking, ginger supplements
Rachel Wilson thank you so much Rachel!
I suffer from really nausea and vomiting 24/7. So I will try these things . Thx u for the tips
Konstance Simmons you’re welcome, I really hope it helps!
@@GeorginasJourney thx u and I hope everything is well with you 🧡
Konstance Simmons 💕
did it work/?
Thanks for this information. My heart goes out to everyone suffering from this debilitating illness. Just wondering if anyone here has ever got a diagnosis? I’m still searching for the cause but have been through so many tests that all say normal. So frustrating!
You're welcome! And a gastric emptying study should give you a definitive answer and diagnosis! If you've already had that particular test and your results were normal, it's unlikely to be gastroparesis and would likely be something else
drinking cold soda really helps me bc the sugar helps gives me engery since usually when im sick i don't eat much and the carbonation helps settle my stomach. funny enough diet sodas/drink seem to be a trigger for me. i use peppermint essential oils and it doesn't necessarily help with the nausea but it's makes me feel "fresh" whenever i feel sick n gross. the best prescribed medication i used is called ondansetron. there aren't really any over the counter medications that help me but doing things that help calm down anxiety (taking baths, laying down in quiet rooms, etc) really help bc when im super nauseas i also get really anxious. As for diet i just don't ever eat full meals and instead eat lighter snacks or smoothies even if I'm feeling fine because that helps prevent a flare up for me
Sofia R. Glad you’ve found what works for you! Ondansetron is incredibly hard to get prescribed in the UK unless you have cancer or a feeding tube, there are of course a few exceptions, but due to that I don’t talk about it on my channel very much as most of my viewers sadly won’t be able to access it as the vast majority of doctors wouldn’t prescribe it for them
@@GeorginasJourney thanks u very much
I take cyclizine I’m prescribed it and it really helps through flare ups 💕💕love this video im hoping to not get a feeding tube so This was really helpful xxx
Lucy Maughan glad it was helpful! And I hope you’re able to avoid that, although they give many people a much better quality of life, so try to see as another helpful tool if you do end up needing one xx
May I ask what Cyclizine is and is it prescription? Thank you and many blessings on this often overwhelming journey we are on.
I got prescribed it a few months ago, sadly it never worked for me
This was really helpful. My husband just got diagnosed and it has not and still isn’t very easy on us. We’re still trying to figure some things out. So far hot baths, light snacks, smoothies, walking/jumping & mylanta is what helps a bit.
Glad you’ve started figuring out some things that help :) Of he’s really struggling, he should tell his doctor though, as there may be something they can prescribe or do to help
omg im the first comment. i feel like a princess lol
Izzy Kornblau wow that was a fast comment 😂😉
Gas x really helped me with the nausea better than dramamine.
I’m happy to hear that! We don’t have gas x in the U.K. unfortunately & it only helps bloating related nausea, which is quite a specific type (as gas x acts on gas bubbles in the digestive tract only), so a lot of people with chronic nausea wouldn’t get relief from it
Holy schnikes that was a fascinating tidbit about Diet Coke. It’s crazy the things that get put into drinks like that.
Jim Jay I know! I was researching it before I filmed this as loads of people told me about it and told me Diet Coke/ Coke Zero was a lifesaver for them but I couldn’t find much about it online, which is why I kept saying ‘supposedly’ in the video, just in case it’s one of them rumours that’s just spread somehow 😅 This video got a dislike pretty quick so maybe it’s the Coca Cola police, they’re onto me hahaha
Jim Jay And Jim have you read 1984?! I’m reading it now and it’s actually really good and thought provoking, not the easiest read but also not as bad as I was expecting!
Hahahhahaa the Coke Cola police! That was pretty brilliant. Right now I’m reading “It” by Stephen King but will definitely check out 1984 when I’m done. I think it might of been one of the books the writers from Lost borrowed elements from. Btw kind of random but are you still writing your book? I forget what the name of it so I’ll just refer to it as “Harry and the Heart Attack”.
You're more brave than me, I won't be reading that for the foreseeable future haha, no way! Is it as creepy as you expected? It could be, it inspired a lot of other books and TV shows! Have you heard of Big Brother? It might just be a British show but it's pretty popular here and is a reality tv show directly based off of it (I've never watched it though). I dip in and out of it, but I haven't properly got back into it for a while! That's a good name for it haha, that actually made me laugh out loud :') And you remembered his name! I'm impressed!
Georgina's Journey Fantasy violence doesn’t upset nearly as much as real life violence so I wouldn’t say it’s too creepy for me even though I could see why it would upset someone else. I want to finish the book before “It 2” the film comes out. I saw part one and it reminded me of a darker Stranger Things so naturally I enjoyed it haha. Also the boy who plays Mike in the show was in “It” as a funny wise cracking kid. I’ve heard of Big Brother... it’s a bunch of strangers living in one house playing different games, right? I’m not a huge reality show person but I’m pretty sure our American version is the same thing. And I’m happy to hear you still occasionally write! I was actually very impressed with what you shared before and randomly thought one day that I hoped you were still at it. You are very talented, Georgie! :)
Nice tips Georgina! Our favorite suggestion at our clinic is Ginger People Ginger Chews! They're so effective!
Thanks! They sound great!
I been suffering from this since i was 18 and 16 years later they finally found out what it was. waking up sick all the time is no fun at all. funny it started when my girlfriend got preg and i just thought i was having sympathy pains and throwing up in the morning. Just never stopped.
Glad you’ve got answers now! What did they find out it was? I wake up sick as well and it’s horrible!
@@GeorginasJourney i got gastroparesis, and a fatty liver, plus sleep apnea. they gave me meds and its been working pretty good. feel like shit some time but dont wake up throwing up every morning now.
@@devilboykillz what are the meds they gave you?
This was so helpful, where did u get the bands from?
Katie Wyatt Hope some of these help! I got mine from amazon, but if you search Sea Bands online, it should come up with a lot of places that sell them :) Pharmacies often stock them too :)
Thank you, I’m buying some now xx
Katie Wyatt hope they help a bit! xx
Curious if they'll help you Katie!! They didn't for me - I get motion sickness! Whenever traveling, I now take a ginger tincture along and it's a God send
I'm an idiot , tried a slice of pizza 🍕 despite not being able to digest solids , the sparp cramps upper and lower , pain nausea vomiting 🤦♀️ in tears 😢
hope you feel better soon!
Those little packs of pickled ginger that you get at sushi places are great, I stock up when I get sushi and keep them in my handbag.
Thanks for the tip!
What a great idea!!
shoutout to our flat microwave and Alex's heat packs
Lydia Hawkins I know, I have to fend for myself now 😂
Most people will disagree with me but Nausea can be just as uncomfortable as Vomiting tbh
I actually don't think most people would disagree- most people know there is usually some relief from vomiting
As much as I hate Vomiting it's my biggest fear but there is nothing worse than that horrific feeling that comes on we call Nausea, do you have Diabetes? Very common with gastroparesis
I love your top!!
Lydia Hawkins wow you really sound like part of the Georgina’s Journey fam now 😂 Will explain later 😂
I use sea bands. I swear by them.
They're really helpful, aren't they! A lot of people won't even try them as they assume they don't work!
@@GeorginasJourney well nothing works for me actually.. I didn't try sea bands but I don't think they will help, cause I can't find any cure..
The nausea medication you suggested in the beginning is prescription in the states.
Actually both are prescription here.
Tiffany Thompson it’s worth asking around as they’re prescription here too (& actually prescribed them both) yet you can sometimes buy them over the counter in a pharmacy (not a drugstore), but since my audience is predominantly UK based, I thought it was worth sharing for them, or if people just want to know about an anti-nausea med to recommend to their doctors as a possible option
Hi I don't have severe nausea or vomiting. But sometimes I can't get out of bed. I mostly have migraine associated nausea and for some reason digestively... If I have a bowel movement I sometimes feel better. Other times it's a dizzy/Vertigo feeling and Benedryl helps that. I know I could try hot coffee instead of iced. I'm sure iced coffee... Depending where the ice is from could have parasites or bacteria that could bother me. Again I'm not in Severe pain or anything. This is occasional (but miserable) nausea since Oct 2020. So for about 7 months.
maybe look into POTS if you also get dizzy!
Great advice 👍👌
Dee Parnell thank you, I hope something helps! 😊
I didn’t know you could get phenergan otc in England! You can’t in the US but luckily I have a zofran prescription and that works pretty well for me :)
Also I found that gel toothpaste makes me sick a lot less often than the regular kind, not sure why but it does! Not sure if others have issues with toothpaste making them sick 🤷🏻♀️and for some reason liquid foods like soup and smoothies make me feel a lot more sick than solid ones
Fiona M are you sure? I dint think we could either, but you can in pharmacies! That’s really good that you have that, zofran is the only thing that works for a lot of people, but it’s so hard to get here unless you have a feeding tube or a cancer diagnosis or something! So I didn’t want to mention that one, as most people wouldn’t be able to get it here :/ Crazy how many people have a prescription for it in America though!
That's interesting about the toothpaste! And I'm exactly the same with liquid foods (and any liquid tbh!)! But I know a lot of people with gastroparesis usually handle them a lot better and the gastroparesis diet recommends liquid foods, so I thought it could be helpful for people to try since a lot of my viewers either have gastroparesis or are suspected of having it!
Georgina's Journey oh yes your video was very helpful and I enjoyed watching it! I was just sharing my specific experience with liquids :)
Thank you! And my experience with it is the same so I completely understand, just shows how everyone's different and what may work for one person may not work for another and vice versa :)
It's not just diet or zero coke that contain a nausea suppressant. The chemical that gives cola it's tangy flavour is food additive e338, also known as phosphoric acid. All varieties of cola contain so much sugar or sweetener that your natural response is to vomit, the additive stops you rejecting all the sugar. Same reason that fast food places push cola as their preferred beverage, to make their food easier to eat without making you sick. If you can't handle the carbonation, either add a small amount of salt to make the cola go flat, or buy the concentrated syrup for the soda machines so you only need a spoonful and there's no bubbles.
good to know, thanks!
I've been suffering this for 10yrs now the tablets you mentioned at the start of your video didn't help me at all I'm on zofran melts and IM cyclizine and they don't even help im so miserable i can't take it nomore every bodys bodies are different and altho i have Gastroparesis i no alot of it is because of this condition but it seems no matter what i do nothing helps i would be so grateful if any1 would be kind enough to tell me if anything helped them this is a miserable life and i don't think i can do it much longer iv begged the hospital to take my stomach its not that i dont want to live i just don't want to suffer nomore someone please help me 😥😥😥
Moonbeam the only thing that would help would be to get a feeding tube to be fed into your jejunum and possibly also a tube in your stomach to drain the stomach acid.
@@GeorginasJourney is been trying for years the gastro team have said that that's the treatment i need but my dianeteic team won't go threw with it I'm just lost when I'm in hospital people can't believe that i be left like this i don't no what else to do my doctors won't do anything to help make me more comfortable to deal with my conditions its affecting my mental health badly 10yrs of nausea and vomiting and you always think if you ne sick the nausea will go away but it never dose these times i can't eat for days nerely full weeks sometimes plus it constantly wakes you up threw the night im so lost x
@Moonbeam I suffer the same thing! Ive tried everything including zofran. Doctors wont help...they all but called me a "junky" for asking for phenergan. .phenergan is the only thing between being in bed clutching trash can sick & being able to perform daily activities. It is DEBILITATING!!!! I need help!
I have gastroenteritis at the moment and its torture, my tummy is constantly hurting and I feel sick constantly 😔
But I am really grateful you are from the UK aha, a lot of the time people are from the USA so I cant get the products 😭
Definitely try the buccastem from a pharmacy or talk to your doctor to see if they can prescribe it, called prochlorperazine!
I’m from the US and I started taking dramamine for a nausea medication. However, I have gastritis, acid reflux, and an ulcer which dramamine shouldn’t be taken with any of those. Anyone recommend anything? And also, I was prescribed omeprazole for my stomach issues. Has anyone taken this? If so did it help you at all?
Hannah Graf omeprazole didn’t help me personally. I’d recommend prochlorperazine buccal tablets if you can get them
Georgina's Journey Okay! I’ll definitely look into it. Thank you so much ❤️
Carbonated drinks make me feel bloated and so I don't drink soda/fizzy drinks.
Tiffany Thompson yeah I don’t find it helpful either, hence why I said you have to follow your own body with all of these, I know a lot of people swear by Diet Coke for nausea though, so again thought it was worth sharing.
what do you all do for flairs that last five days not much eating and a lot of suffering! Stomach churns so badly n goes on n on till one day it just stops as quickly as it came on? I am stumped as to what to do! I want pain meds for it is too painful! Nausea meds I take zofran from the docs! It is ok it helps but hard to fight gastro ;) God bless you all I am sincerely sorry for us all !
Worst case scenario is the emergency department or A&E. Or you could ask your doctor to prescribe you another anti- sickness tablet for during your flare ups. Eating plain foods like toast, rice, maybe bananas, may help, as well as sleeping/lying propped up on pillows (many find lying on their left side helpful) & you could also try travel sickness wrist bands. That’s everything I can think of for now, hope you find something that helps :)
Iv been suffering severe nusea vomiting and pain for 10yrs nothing and i mean nothing workings for me in on zofran melts and IM cyclizne (injections) I'm at the stage were i keep begging my doctors to take my stomach out it's a miserable existent i barly eat and cant rember what a nights sleep is but thank you for sharing this iv tryed them all I hate being diabetic and haveing gastroparesis i would be so grateful if any1 has any other things i could try God bless and stay safe everyone 😥🤮💙💙💙💙💙
A feeding tube is often the only thing that really helps gastroparesis patients, have your doctors considered that?

Thank you for the video Georgina! I suffer from Nausea from time to time but no vomiting, do you know if this medication is available in Northern Ireland or just certain parts of UK?
I don't know, but a pharmacist or your GP will be able to tell you :)
Same nausea but no vomiting ...Did you find the answer? plz reply
What symptoms did you have? I’ve been having chronic nausea for about 2 years now
nausea and vomiting
I’ve been nauseous 2 days in a row, haven’t been able to eat at all, smell of food makes me want to vomit. Hopefully this will work for me.
contact your doctor if you need to, or if you really cant eat you might need to go to hospital
I hate the feeling of wanting to throw up it’s so annoying, I just want to feel better right now 😭
I think that's how everyone feels about it :/ Hope you feel better soon!
you feel nausea everyday? hows it going today?
@@karlhans6678 I feel better now I don’t have the feeling anymore
@@rufus_wong how long did it last? what did you do to fix it?
@@karlhans6678 I just drink plenty of water and that’s pretty much it, it only last for 3 days
Is stomach pain is common in gastroparesis coz i have all other symptoms except for pain but sometimes i feel like burning sensation in stomach...i dont usually get nausea but i feel bloating and full evertime....i never getting urge to eat something....plsss help me out
You need a gastric emptying study to tell whether you have gastroparesis or not, you can’t tell just from symptoms. I hope you can see a gastroenterologist to get some testing
Thankyou
You’re welcome 😊
I mostly smoke pot if i can't do the i sing how far I'll go from moana very loud
Nice!
Thanks for the tips !
For ginger, I love to use the liquid extract (Lemon Pharma brand is cheap and effective for me, although the taste is very strong) or tablets.
Lemon balm is another nice herb for nausea and tummy issues in general. It's a calming and soothing herb for the body and the mind as well ^^ ( just check with your doctor if you have hypothyroidism. Also go easy on ginger if you take blood thinners or really bruise a lot )
Take care everyone 🥰
Thanks!
I was diagnosed with FD but i’m beginning to think its actually GP as it was diagnosed as motility and my gastric emptying is slow but fluctuates, i have all the symptoms except vomiting. (My doctor didnt want to put me through invasive tests) any ideas as to this being a possibility? Xx
Only a gastric emptying study would be able to tell you, the tests for that are not invasive, you usually just get scans or alternatively, there’s a pill/capsule you can swallow which records your motility
But the fact your gastric emptying is slow indicates you could have it, they’d just need to determine if it’s slow enough for it to meet the criteria for gastroparesis xx
Georgina's Journey okay, thank you for replying. I might talk to my gp about that then since the nausea treatment doesn’t work
"eating only when you feel able to" so basically Georgie 24/7
I mean...
how do you get diagnosed with gastroparesis?
With a gastric emptying test/scan :)
@@GeorginasJourney oh no x-rays :(, i hate radiation!
@@karlhans6678 it’s a gamma scan, not an X-ray, but the food is radioactive. It’s such a tiny amount of it that most people who need a gastric emptying scan don’t think twice about getting it done
@@GeorginasJourney ugh, ill maybe need this scan.
@@karlhans6678 I’ve had it, it was absolutely fine
if you're suffering from gerd, anything peppermint will actually make it worse 🖤. it will help if u just have nausea tho!
Rachel Wilson I didn’t know that, thank you!
I am the second
Annie Read you are! Hope it was helpful!
Don't do myristicin,
How is that relevant here? I didn’t mention it at all
yesss Diet Coke shoutout
Lydia Hawkins zero or normal is still better 😉
CAN'T HEAR AT ALL. YOUR ARE SOFT SPOKEN AND VIDEO AUDIO IS LOUSY!!!
My voice is like this due to my disability I’m afraid, but I’ll link my fundraiser in case you want to help me buy a camera with better audio as I agree, that background static noise is so annoying! gofund.me/bd1fc209
