Crohn's Disease Support Group

I had to leave work Sunday cAuse of the horrible nausea. I started vomiting none stop. I need help please!!!!! How do I keep my nausea in control? I can't afford to miss anymore work. I hate the feeling of having to throw up. I need advice, tips. Help please!!!!!

Jay are your meds making you nauseated? If so you need to let your GI know. You can get anti nausea meds. Or try crackers and gingerale. I've heard peppermint helps but have never tried that. Hope you feel better!

No I am not taking meds to that makes me nauseated. I am going to try the other stuff. Thank you.

Sprite helps me.

Thank you for the advice. I will try all of this when I get nauseated

Hey Jay- UGGGHHH, nausea no fun! Although it's best to eat multiple small meals throughout the day for us Crohnies, if I'm super nauseous, I'll eat one huge(ish) meal just to get the whole "food" thing over and done with. The nausea usually decreases the longer I go without food. Not saying it's the healthy way to deal with it, but hey, at least it stops the puking.

Thanks zaftig.

Ginger ale is my best friend. I also had these ginger mints from Trader Joes once that were amazing. You could try a health food store too.

Anything with Ginger is helpful for me...i have ginger caps in my frig..and ginger tea...

Ginger also helps me. However the carbonation in ginger ale can be irritating. I found putting alot of ice, or putting the ginger ale in the freezer helps dissipate the carbonation and make it less irritating.
