Hey friends,

So the last few days my anxiety SEEMS to be in check and I'm pretty excited about this trip I'm taking this weekend. However, there's always something! I have had this constant feeling of mild nausea. Weird because I'm hungry. Normally when I feel nauseous like when I'm sick or hungover, I can't even think about food without gagging. But in this case I feel nauseous, I eat, and if anything it makes it better? Normally eating would make me want to puke when I'm nauseous. Sound familiar to anyone?

Some medications can cause nausea on an empty stomach, even vitamins. And sometimes an empty stomach or too much stomach acid makes me feel nausea too. You could always try a tums/antacid to see if it helps?

Best of luck!

MD,

Sounds like it could be high stomach acid...have you tried taking an antacid...or are you currently on a PPI?

When I have mild nausea, but am still wanting to eat..
I know it's GERD/high acid related and not anything else like a virus/food poisoning, ect..

Coping skills for relaxation will also help to lower stress and acid production!

Thanks. The only meds I'm on is .25 Xanax and haven't taken in a few days. I'll try the tums. I've heard and read that nausea can be caused by anxiety, is that true?

Thanks!
