Re: Severe nausea with Endo

Hi,
I was diagnosed in August '04. I have started experiencing the nausea
in the past 3 months. I'll wake up with it and feel like crap all day
for a week on end, but feel better by late evening. Talk about buying
stock...I could own a saltine cracker company at this point. I was on
Seasonale birth control...I've been off for a couple of weeks now and
still having the same issue. Aside from ginger ale, I actually drink
ginger tea. Boil some water and steep a chunk of fresh ginger in there
(not too long or it'll get really spicy). It helps settle my tummy,
also makes the pain a little better. I'm going in for my second lap in
a couple of days. Hopefully that will relieve some of this. Wish I had
some brilliant advice!
Good luck,
Alyson
