I was thinking ovulation, too, from the last post. It's my experience that doctors are incredibly disinterested in generalized nausea. (I have daily morning sickness which goes away with lunch, which is kind of an insult to someone who would love to be pregnant.. I've brought it up with several, with no results.)

Anyway, good luck with the pills and all of the changes you're making!

It really bugs me that NO ONE even mentioned this or went in that direction. I actually had SURGERY done by an OB/Gyn to search for other stuff (endometriosis), and he didn't think about this. Really messed up. I hate resorting to researching on the internet because it can be so unreliable, but really, I just got sick of the docs not offering anything new to explain what could be happening. I was scheduled for an endoscopy yesterday and cancelled it because I just didn't feel it was necessary. Sick of procedures. Sick of doctor appointments. I just hope this works. Thank you.

I'm so sorry you're having that! I had several months of thinking it may be pregnancy before we realized it was repeating itself over and over. *hugs*

It really would. Here's hoping!

Yeah, it's REALLY easy for me to get into the caffeine loop, but I've learned from experience that if I tough it out, my head will thank me for it. *sigh*

I just wish they would TALK TO EACH OTHER sometimes instead of sending me to different ones trying to translate what they each tell me. That seems like the most inefficient way to do medicine. I know they're overworked and rushed and blah, blah, blah, but just a teensy bit of looking into this might've saved me countless procedures and appointments. They're supposed to be the experts, dammit! Not to mention all the medical bills I'm raking up. *sigh*

Thx.
