Hello all!!

For the past two weeks or so I've been horribly nauseous 24/7. Its hard to sleep, eat, concentrate, go to class, etc.

I have an anxiety disorder, but I've never had this a symptom of anxiety before. It is my first month of college, so I guess its possible though.

I'm on 62.5 mg of 6mp, not sure if that could be causing it?

My lower GI tract is actually doing very well, I'm pleased.

But I've been having bloating after eating, nausea, and excess gas for a while now, and its starting to interfere with my life.

Because you all (unfortunatly) have a lot of experience with things like this, I was just wondering if I could get any opinions.

One of my friends told me to 'go with my gut' (unintentionally punny) but all my gut tells me is that it doesn't like me.

Thanks everyone!!

zofran helped me A LOT. the past few months, i was throwing up most of my food because my stomach was so inflamed. the nurses gave me zofran in the hospital last month to help with that and i got a prescription for home. it literally stopped all of my vomiting and nausea. i don't take it anymore because my stomach feels fine now. maybe just being on it for a few weeks would settle your belly down.

I'm curious, how did you get the script for 6mp at 62.5mgs? That's an odd dose....

Haha, I know, isn't it?
Well, I was on 75mg but then the blood test showed that 75mg was toxic for my body, so my GI lowered it to 50mg. But at 50mg, all of my symptoms returned. He didn't feel comfortable putting me back at 75mg when he knew that it was too much, so he decided on 62.5mg. I guess in kind of a spilt the difference manner.
Let me just say that getting 62.5mg out of two 50 mg pills is a work of art.
