Throwing up

[richardo123]

I have been throwing up in the last six months usually in the evening . It’s intermittent . I lose the whole days meals . My wife says. It’s part of the PD progression

My stomach is rumbling and feels nauseated . When it happens I don’t feel for any food the next day . This is my 16th year with PD . I am on a lot of medication for different things. I did some calculations and I am taking over 5500 pills a year and ware a patch each day to help with PD dymentia . I am thinking I have done something to my stomach due to taking so much medication.

Anyone else experiencing this

have you discussed this with your doctor? there are some medications that can help with nausea but I am not sure how effective they are - my mom had to take one of them

Please see a gastroentorologist for a possible botox procedure of the esophagus. My husband had the same thing and went thru dilations but nothing helped. there's another procedure called POEM but very few surgeons do it. Good luck. Botox is working so far and hubby is now back to normal diet with solid foods etc and is extremely satisfied esp. during the holidays. Cannot eat a lot though.

Nausea can result from levodopa medication. What levodopa medications are you taking and how much? It is possible some of the other medications you are taking could also be responsible.

Try having ginger juice - helps with nausea and vomiting. My mother used to have nausea and vomiting and it stopped in just 2 days after taking ginger juice ( about 100 ml of juice, once a day; I give it in the evening before dinner). See my first post on how I prepare the juice. Just a suggestion, I am not a doctor, and my input should not be treated as medical advice.
