I have not eaten alot recently and the things I do eat make me nausea's afterwards. Not sure but going to call the GI dr. tommorrow as well as the PCP. UGG! I hate going to dr.'s.

I have also found that cyclic vomiting can coincide with RSD and that it is not so uncommon that patients with rsd have this.

Debbiehub,

I feel nauseated the last few days after eating, especially in the morning (I had a hysterectomy so I know i'm not pregnant) I can't even hold down a cup of coffee in the am. I am now down to eating lots of mints, sprite or ginger ale (which doesn't always stay down) and usually about 2 pm. I start to come around. This past week as been horrible.

Coffee is supposed to be avoided with RSD...

Instead of buying soda (and diet is even worse that regular, even though Hooshmand claimed it was ok) you might want to try making fresh ginger tea with lemon and raw honey to calm your stomach down. Otherwise, you're throwing your blood sugar into overdrive right off the bat.

That is a good idea Lit love. I will try this. I also got an appointment with the GI dr. next week. I was reading that RSD patients have a slower emptying of gastric contents then do normal people. Thus we get sick, nausea, vomiting, dirhea, constipation. Usually an egd will not show anything.

Most of us are on meds that exacerbate these issues, too! Add in the temperature regulation issues, and I often couldn't figure out if I had the flu until another symptom kicked in (like a sore throat.)

It is Miserable having to deal with those issues all the time! And there's only so much time your docs can spend on your care--so this was one of those things that was easy to put off dealing with.

For natural fiber, I eat apples, raw carrots, and make homemade refried beans with lard.
