Hi bluebell111

This is quite common after heart failure. The combination of all the drugs and anxiety adds to the problem. I'm only 3 weeks after my HA (had stent) and felt really sick for the first two weeks. I'm no expect but now when I get nauseous, I get up and walk around the house or garden, take deep breaths in and slow breaths out and really try and focus on positive thoughts (so easy for your mind to drift into dark thoughts about your condition). This has really helped me. Also, this forum is great, because you will come across so many people who have similar issues. Good luck !
