I've been having lots of different digestive issues lately, if it's not my colon it's my stomach acting up. sad Well, I have noticed a pattern to my problems and when I push myself too hard during the day, which I have been doing a lot of, and get over tired it's like my digestive system shuts down or something and I get nauseated. Okay with the gastroparesis and IBS things don't always move along like they should anyway but the pattern of the nausea has been since I have been on the vit D and have more motivation and a little more energy. I blamed it on the vit D supplements but I have backed off of them. This gets very frustrating cause I thought if I pushed a little more each day I would build up more energy but it is not working that way.

 

My question is does anyone else notice if they push to near exhaustion they get nauseated???

 

Thanks!!!

luv and hugs

Yes, but I always thought it was a reaction to pain (?) maybe its tired nerves...

I have these problems all the time lately.  My PCP has scheduled me for an abdominal ultrasound because of my pain, and bloating.  She is concerned that it could be from the NSAID Relafen I am taking for my arthritic pain.  NSAIDs can irritate the stomach and intestines.  I just hope this isn't the case.  I don't know what I will do without the Relafen... it seem to help with my joint pain.  I am never totally without pain... Pain is an everyday occurrence... but to even take the edge off his helpful.

I know I have IBS so it's hard to separate the symptoms.... that's why my doctor scheduled me for ultrasound to rule out anything serious.

Take care and God Bless.

I always get sick to my stomach after working for about 12 hrs.

Hi Marlee-

When I push beyond my limit (which does not take much) I lose my appetite or I get nauseated. I think mine is from the extra pain it causes?

And the Vit. D thing. It is so goofy. I have had to hold back on my pill too, once a week and wait for a few more days beyond that. I started them again and it is not bugging me at all now! mad So, I don't get it.....

I have noticed that my brain doesn't register hunger very well & sometimes I just need to eat when feeling like that. Of course, that being said, I have had a very pronounced increase in the amount of nausea I experience lately.

I just looked up Relafin & feel that it might be something for me to try - THANX!!

What started as a wall unit project in the family room, I wanted to do, snowballed til I had every room in the house tore up moving furniture and trying to find places for everything and getting rid of things I don't want. We have all done it at one time I'm sure. We put a bigger TV in the guest room for the kids to play their games on that is real easy for all of them to operate. I went in there this morning and was going to move a 32" TV and stand and said to myself, "Self you think this is why your pushing your muscles to the exhaustion point and your getting sick everyday???", I quit and will wait for some help. I'm trying to get it all done so the grandkids can start coming to spend their time with us. I try to act like there is nothing wrong with me but the body always reminds me that this DD is not going anywhere. I went to Walmart to get a few things and quit for the day so I will see what the tummy decides to do tonight.

 

As many stomach meds as I'm on right now I don't know how anything I put in it could be making me sick so I don't think it is the D but who knows. I'm only taking the chews with calcium and D and I forgot last night.

 

WhiteChocChips, how can you work for 12 hrs??? I'm doing good to put in 4 hrs a day around here.

 

luv and hugs

I get to the point where I am so tired I can't eat. Unfort I make up for it later when I am feeling better.

Oh yes. I have fibromyalgia and if I get anxious my IBS becomes extremely troublesome and painful.

Recently I have tummy troubles daily. I have been taking a vitamin with a high iron content and suspect that is the cause. I am also taking a prescription NSAID. I stopped taking the vitamin yesterday and will not take the voltaren for a few days.

I have never been able to take supplemental iron but I did not realize what the vitamin contained. lol

Oh well, back to the drawing board.

I definitely notice it. I have had a really busy couple weeks at work, the busiest I have ever had to be for work, some days were 14, 15 hours managing a conference. It took me a solid 10 days to recover from that one. Even a couple of years ago that would have been no problem for me; I used to be a workhorse. I get nauseated when I am physically spent, and nauseated if I don't eat. Of course, if I am not hungry I won't eat, and if I try to choke something besides yogurt down, it will not stay down. And then my head hurts. And then I have to lie down.

Same for me -- nausea comes with overexertion or not eating. Rarely have it other times. Blamed it on some of my meds till I got past the fog enough to realize that the nausea had been around longer than my newer meds -- and did not notice it on the older ones. One positive side effect of my newer meds -- my IBS is often better in the sense that I don't have to run to the 'throne' so much some days. Something I take blocks me up but not too badly if I'm really careful about plenty of water. And don't get severely stressed out.......LOL.........
(((hugs)))
Luv ya

Sorry others have noticed this too but kinda relieved that others have noticed a pattern to the nausea like I did. I didn't push to the exhausting point yesterday and didn't have any nausea last night but the IBS was sure active which causes anxiety after the passing out incident a couple weeks ago. I guess it always has to be something.

 

Thanks for all your input. I'm going to stop pushing myself and get done what I can and what doesn't get done can wait til another day cause it is not increasing my energy level.

 

luv and hugs

I get nauseous every so often out of nowhere. I know my gastritis will act up and the nasuea is just part of it. I will feel that way when I'm getting ready for work, so I guess bending makes me feel it all the more. When I get to the point of being exhausted, I thinks its just a given that I feel nauseous, cause it happens all the time that way for me. My job is stressful at times, I try real hard to make it less but I will feel ill every time. I think the pain I'm feeling and my stomach can go hand in hand.

I still remind myself I need to eat, healthy foods, to keep the rest of my body fueled up. It is hard though, I don't want to eat and sometimes food and just water hurt something awful. That's when I have to break out the Prilosic.

Marlee, I hope the gkids love the fact they have a nice tv to play their games on. G-ma worked hard to get that in. :-)

I have stomach problems alot at night. It's hard to say what its from though, especially me being on an NSAID that can be not so good for your stomach. Nausea is very common for me though, and I take compazine for it as needed. I also keep ginger ale in the house because that usually helps out too.
