So starting about ten years ago I started throwing up every morning. I throw up I guess a clear liquid until bile comes out. Sorry if that’s gross. Then I feel better, for the moment. It’s not really in my stomach, more like I can’t burp right or super sensitive gag reflex. Last couple day I’ve beem throwing up during the day also. I have seen drs about it with no help. Any one else have this also and know what to do?

I experience the same thing in a sense? Does it always accompany a sour feeling in the back of your throat when you breath?

It is so exhausting tho. To wake up full of anxiety then to dry heave for 20 min which makes it worse and have to start my day. I feel like I’m in some kind of anxiety circle...... how do I start to have a normal day when every day starts like that?

Um yep. I throw up like every day. Nauseous and dizzy all the time. And no I'm not preggers. Anxiety, constant upset can cause this and also, see an ENT and/or regular doc to see if you have acid reflux. I do. It could be that. And are you eating in the mornings? Do not take pills OR vitamins on an empty stomach. If you can't eat a full breakfast in the mornings (I don't) at least have a snack.

You could have an eating disorder otherwise Not Specified. Did you know that those exist and not just anorexia and bulimia? There are more and they are called "Unspecified" because they don't quite fit into the above categories. You could be having an aversion to food (or even smells or chemicals.)

Also, emotional problems can cause physical symptoms like this. Scan your body. DO you feel upset or discomfort or tightness in your stomach and/or throat area? I feel that maybe you have something unresolved. I have the gag reflex because of a traumatic (almost drowning) experience from being in the ocean.

Think back to when all this started. Chances are, you'll realize what the unresolved issue is (if you have one.)

I hope that I have given you some answers and possibilities (both physical and emotional) to consider. Also, if you have GERD (Acid Reflux) and no medical insurance, you can get meds over the counter like cimetidine and ranitidine. Ask a pharmacist what is best and they will consult with you and recommend one. You can buy the generic they are cheaper and work just as well and also have the same ingredients. Do you couch and also have post nasal drip? Those are symptoms of acid reflux as well.

You can get nausea pills OTC at the store, like Dramamine, SeaBands, Nauzene, etc. You can also get an RX for dizziness, like Meclizine. I live upstairs so I have to be very careful. Always hold onto the railing when taking stairs.

Also, have them check your inner ear for infection and maybe clean your ears. These issues can cause dizziness and nausea. The ENT and/or regular doc can check you for all these things.

I hope these tips help you! Smiles! ; )

Hi!!! I’m pretty sure it’s several things emotional is a huge one. I’m not sure there’s a lot to look back on..... I remember bits and pieces only. I know my mom is a drug addict with some a bunch of mental health problems, maybe borderline personality disorder? Not sure. My dad worked in the oil fields. My mom and dad split at a young age. And my dad would pay people to watch me while he was at work, when he was home he would start drinking at 6am “usually vodka oj and be passed out by noon...I’m the only child so there was no one to talk to or be friends with. I was pretty much just a paycheck to the people I lived with. I think I have been completely heart broken my whole life. School called home about me always walking around with my head down among other similar things in like 1st grade. I think I fit cen exactly. I learned to completely tune myself out, so I wouldn’t hurt all the time. In like 6th grade my mom came back home, she told my dad she was really sick and needed insurance. For some reason he would do anything for her so he took her back. It was good for the first year then she started abusing pills. And things got real bad, I thought she had multiple personalities and was Schizophrenic. She would go crazy on me all the time. I got moved to the basement and was told I could only use the back door and could come upstairs by my mom. My dad was working a month on and month off so he didn’t know or really care at the time. Now I think it was her being so doped up she didn’t know what she was doing and couldn’t remember or something. Sophomore year I came home ( I had already been kicked out of the house several time for not putting a trash bag in the trash can one time.... other just dumb shit probably to get me gone. But I came home and the house was trashed computers broken, water poured all over the tv, not even sure now. I just know I didn’t do it..... they say me down and my dad started yelling at me and at that moment I knew I was never going to be asked my side or be talked to about it. I was working already so I moved out. No one ever called and asked me to come home or wanted to talk about it. It hurt so so bad I just shut down. Completely stoped trusting people..... I moved out of the small town I grew up in. The house I grew up in we could and did shoot guns off the back porch in to the woods.... I moved to anchorage got a job and an apartment and graduated from high school. When I hit 25 I started getting sick every morning and randomly during the day. I thought I was on my death bed. The dr did everything but put a tube down my stomach, she said she thought it was just stress.... so I just kept on with my life. I got a divorce almost two years ago every thing got real bad. Now I recognize the anxiety I have been going thru for years. But now it’s worse. The joints in my hands are failing and the drs can’t tell me anything actually make me feel like they think I’m not being honest about how I feel. I can’t imagine living the rest of my life like this

Oh wow. I can totally understand why you are having these symptoms. Trauma gets stored in the body. I have no friends or family (except my husband cat and daughter, who I had to give up for adoption.) Ive been divorced before previously. I was abused really badly as well and in every way: verbally, emotionally, psychologically, mentally and spiritually. I was raised in a cult so very strict. No tv cartoons or Disney movies. I wont bore you with all the details but it was hell on earth. I am so sorry for what you are going through. I recommend finding a doctor from India or Africa, they make better doctors. Or hispanic. Keep looking until you find a compassionate one. In the meantime, research home remedies for your ailments. I pretty much have had to diagnose and treat myself my whole life. Doctors don't know crap. And they don't believe you either. Some healers huh? But YOU have the power to heal yourself it lies within you. Once I let go of things, a lot of my ailments disappeared. I used to be sick all the time but now I take vitamins and supplements and feel so much better. I wish you well you can pm me anytime. You CAN do this! HUGS ; )
