Nausea

[Mixter]

This is one of my worst symtoms.

Often in mornings, I dread to eat.

But have to, as after I eat I feel at least little bit better.

But nausea feels like a stopper, and ambivalent one.

So try to eat little and little bit until done.

Also have a stuck feeling in throat.
I think stomach is confused.

I feel like it is withdrawal. Maybe lyme too.

But Lyme nausea was more worse, much worse in fact.

I had this before I started real treatment (enzymes added in the mix to break up biofilms)
I had eye headaches and swelling (as it can cause nausea) but was also in the whole body too.

After 1-2 weeks, it seemed to improve so I could function. Before, it was getting worse and worse "beyond belief".

But now this is a bit different.

Some advice? Acceptance? Tips and advice?

Effexor w/d is notoriously hard on the digestive system. Have you tried eating different things? Have you considered trying a gluten free diet? One Effexor w/d'er had some success with doing that for awhile, until it became unnecessary.

I think it's a good idea to eat small amounts with rests in between. I had to do that with breakfast early in w/d. I ate my breakfast in two stages. If I ate too much at once, I would get stultifyingly depressed!

But, it is very important to get nutrition, so do keep eating, even though it's not much fun.

I don't have anything to offer but just want to welcome you, Mixter, to the forum :)

Some find adding ginger to their meals effective. Could be worth trying. Welcome to IAWP, Mixter!
