Nausea almost every morning

I feel nauseous almost every morning too but it started when I started taking zoloft so I'm guessing it's one of the side effects. Also, I don't know what kind of pain you feel in your stomach but I have stomach problem with acid. This happens every time I stress out and it involves food My pain is sharp and is right under my chest bone. But if you have burning feeling in your stomach and chest area it might be heartburn.

Hope you feel better soon. =)

ask doc for some tummy calming meds

nausea or dry retching on waking is common and associated with depression, from fears and worries about having to face the new day

Thanks you guy's.

And ((((HUGS)))) back to you all.

No Ms Kittie there is NO chance I could be pregnant. I am thinking after a little research this might have to do with GERD. However Harry facing my can sometimes be just a real downer. Just hate waking up to that sick feeling.

I was just looking for reasons why I would feel SO sick every morning. And it is every morning. I can't quite figure it out. When I found this site I was like wow..

Thanks D for bringing up an old thread so ppl that are dealing with this can read up on it
Appreciate your help my friend

I am new here and am suprised to see so many others feeling like I do every dang morning. I wake up way too early, sick as can be, and stressed to the max too. Once I am up, I slowly start to feel better, but I don't know what is causing this at all. I was taking some pain meds for awhile due to my broken tailbone, but even before I ran out this started. So I don't think it is withdrawls. I go to bed fine, relaxed, no problem. But as soon as the sun comes up, it's like my body and my brain freak out..."Oh my God- another day another day!" I am so nausious, and nervous, and just feel terrible. I am 33 years old, and have two beautiful babies ages one and two. Why would this happen to me each morning? I went to the doctor and she gave me protonix which hasn't helped, and also wrote me a scrip for low dose prozac to help with anxiety. But I don't konw if that will help me. It's like I have a panic attack in the morning due to the pain in my tummy- not the other way around. I am still in pain and need ot take naprxen, or ibuprofen, or tylenol or SOMETHING because I hurt so much, and am afraid that the meds will aggravate it even more. I have no appetite, and though my stomach is empty and hungry, my brain is completely turned off to food. I know no one here can do anything about it, but it is nice to be able to talk about it with people who may understand. Thanks for listening!------

Thanks so much for the reply...I do so want to have a second opinion and a more detailed workup, as once again today, I was so miserable. At first, it was just mornings, and now it is creeping well into the day. But I have never had depression or anxiety before the onset of the symptoms, and so I can relate to what you went through with doctors chalking it up to a mental disorder. I believe that the body is such an intricate balance, and that when one thing is off kilter, it can effect so many other things too. Living with chronic pain hasn't helped, and part of it may have stemmed from the hopeless feeling of wondering if I could ever get through the day without pain medication. The narcotics always worked the best of course, but also scared me because of the dependency potential, and I do believe that I was depending on them to help me get through the day. My tolerance was getting high, and it was nearly impossible to find a doctor to prescribe them to me. I think that some of the "anxiety" part of my stomach aches were due to worrying about taking them or not taking them. The funny thing is though, that they were the only medicine that ever got RID of my sotmach ache instead of causing it like it can. But I am not taking them now, and was relieved to be "done with them" in my mind, and the horrible stomach in the morning still lingers, and is worse than ever. I have crappy insurance, and due to my kids, only a few hours in the week that I can get away, so that has prolonged my getting help. Wish me luck getting through until I will feel better. Did you take the protonix two at a time, or twice a day? I was only given samples of 40mg, but I do go back to the primary care doctor next week. Have you ever tried prozac for anxiety? I don't suffer from anxiety all of the time, and I wish they could give me something just for onset attacks and not something that I have to take every day that will effect me all of the time. I just don't always trust doctors. Or what they diagnose. Thanks for your help!!!!!!--------

Hello and welcome to HealingWell.  I think you got a really good answer from Peacesoul.  A good check up with your PCP is called for to rule out any medical problems in my opinion.  I also know that I too have woken with the the dread and anxiety, but I have not had the nausea.

Keep posting and welcome again to our HealingWell Family

I've been searching the internet for weeks trying to find an answer.  This web site is the closest thing I've found.

I have a 15 yr old son.  He's always eaten breakfast in the morning and about a year ago he said he couldn't stomach breakfast anymore.  After a few months that changed to nausea in the morning and occassionally he said he would vomit in the morning. 

Then summer came and he slept in until about 11am to noon everyday and he would feel fine.  Sometime he would wake up early because the dogs would bark and he would have the nauseas feeling.  If I took the day off work and we would wake up early to go do something fun, he would be nauseas until around midday.

Then school started and it got much worse.  He's had serious nausea and dry heaving to the point of vomiting blood once because he was retching so violently.  I've taken him to a gastroenterologist and so far all his blood work has come up negative, he is not lactose intolerant, his endoscopy was normal (including biopsies).   

Next he's scheduled for an ultrasound on his kidney's and gall bladder. 

He does have proteinuria and is taking lisinopril for this but no signs of kidney disease.  He's stopped the lisinopril until we can get this under control.  He's missed a lot of time at school but it's all been excused because he's seeing doctors.

Of course we've considered anxiety but would he have anxiety even on days he was getting up early to do something fun he loves to do????

He's incredibly bright with a superior IQ but he is dyslexic.  He's had 3 years of the Wilson Reading program and it's made incredible improvements in his reading ability.  He still spells horribly but it doesn't really matter.  His IOWA test rate him at college level even though he was only in 8th grade when he was tested.  He's incredibly bright, sensible and mature for his age but very quiet and restrained.  

He's in honors and advanced classes by his choice and he plans to go onto college.  He had all his classes planned out for high school.  He's a really great kid!  But I'm sick from the misery he's experiencing about every morning.

He's been on Prevacid for a couple of weeks and it helps a little bit but not much.  It makes the difference between retching uncontrollably and major nausea.

Any help anyone can give me would be appreciated.

Dear Livegirl,

I read your posts and I felt like you are describing me. I have the same problem. Everyday almost. I have two small children and I need to be the best to give them my all. I have normal worries but those normal worries effect me differently. I have been tested for everything and finall a solution came it was xanax the only thing is that it is addictive so I am not returning to it. I have now been prescribed Busbar and axiety medicine at its lowest dose so I will let you know if it works.

Our mind is very strong and something little can casue great physical discomforts. I found forcing my selff to take a brisk walf on my street helped but I have to do it right when I wake up. I believe that all my worries get balled up in my stomach and the nausea is a way for my body to tell me that I need to get those worries out. It is hard to find people that understand that you can be completely truthfull with but if you can it helps.

 

Thanks everyone for your input. I always learn so much from each and every one of you.

Hello and welcome to HealingWell. There are many disorders that may cause nausea and anxiety is one of them.

If your not willing to go to a physician or explore further options within the medical field to find out what your problem may be there is not a lot we have to offer other then support for what you are going through.

We are not medical professsionals and cannot dx. However I do wonder if your reason for not seeing a physician is the fear of finding out something is wrong and you think it may be life altering?

Have you talked with your family or any support people in your life re your nausea?

I do hope this nausea passes.

Take care and know we are here for all.
