I am not pregnant -- no way, no how. Yet the past two weeks, I've woken up every morning to the worst nausea of my life. Taking anti-nausea stuff doesn't really help, as I tend to throw up a couple minutes after they've been swallowed.

Any ideas? The earliest I could get an appointment with my doctor is at the end of October confused

It could just be the fact that it's morning and crohnies are notorious for having HORRENDOUS mornings. I know that I'm never good until 2-3 hours after I'm awake. Some days more. Could it be any of your meds? I'm not familiar with what you're taking as far as side effects go, but that might be something to consider. I'm sorry you're having such a rough time. Hang in there and keep your chin up!

It is really tough to figure out without a lot more info. Here's a link to an old thread with the same discussion: HealingWell

Anytime I have had nausea like that I generally had a stricture. You might want to put a call into your family doc in the meantime and maybe ask about the nausea meds you can put under your tongue. That way they are absorbed and don't go thru the stomach. Zofran has a sublingual. Hope that helps a little.

For me and my crohns, throwing up lots is a constipation thing...clogged up down there...everything comes up instead.
But yeah, without more info its hard to tell anything. Sometimes certain meds have done that to me too, especially if I am on cipro or flagyl...major throwing up at times.
If really bad you could try your family doc as maybe its not the crohns? something more flu like? they could order tests too.

That happened to me not so long ago and it's still happening. Then I stopped eating only having little things here and there with liquids. I lost a lot of weight. I even felt burning in my stomach when I ate normally. Now, I'm going in for surgery on Monday to have a resection. I have a stricture and my bowel was having trouble pushing food through....so I've got this stricture then an area just before the stricture is kind ballooned or stretched because of the food being pushed through. You might have a stricture too. Make an apt. with your doc. but also call the nurse up and let her know what's going on so she can talk to you about seeing the doctor sooner if need be. I hope this helps : )

Yep, sounds like a stricture. That's happened to me when my stricture gets bad. Can you call your doc and tell him/her what's been happening?

I think it might be the Imuran..that will cause you to have this type of feeling...are you constipated lately..though..not going to the bathroom enough....things not passing through? You might be backed up...this happens to me..and i will throw up too...if you can't wait for your app..you can go to the ER..

frogeleita might have a point here. Did you just recently start on the Imuran? I had to switch to 6mp and taking it at night, because the Imuran made me so nauseous.

Hugs!

This morning sickness seems to be very bad. I would definitely try to get an appointment earlier. Do you have the morning sickness every day? It is really bad that pills do not help. As you described it there is nothing you could do in order to prevent the morning sickness? Do you eat before you go to sleep? Maybe not eating 3 hours before you go to sleep would help. Anyway I would definitely try to get an appointment.
