Phyllis, Because you are a nurse, I am going to give you the same valuable advice that I give my wife - see you doctor... -----Original Message----- From: ob-gyn-l@obgyn.net [mailto:ob-gyn-l@obgyn.net] On Behalf Of Phyllis A. Anderson Sent: Wednesday, July 30, 2003 10:39 PM To: Multiple recipients of list OB-GYN-L Subject: nausea and vomiting related to menopause I am a registered nurse in a central Il. trauma center. I work 3-12 hour noc shifts. My scedule is 3 12's in a row. This is more of a question than anything I guess. I have not had a period for about 4 years, have dealt with hot flashes night sweats etc. without medication. I am 53. For about the last 3 months whenever I have a hot flash I get nauseated and more likely than not I vomit. It's only during the hot flash or immediately thereafter that it happens and usually at work. I have no pain, and have been worked up G.I.wise with no findings. Can this be r/t menopause and what can I do? My doc has me on Prempro and hot flashes have lessened but I still experience nausea. This makes me miserable especially when I am trying to care for patients and can hardly hold my head up due to the nausea. Any help would be appreciated!!!!

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
