    Ask for something for the nausea! Hospitals are really big on discomfort control (at least in my experience) and will give you an anti-emetic if you say you're feeling nauseated! Did you have to drink contrast? I have a few times, and it DID make me n*, didn't make me v*.

    I hope they find out what is wrong and you start feeling better soon! They sedate you for the endoscopy, so you won't remember or feel a thing. *big hugs*

    Have they checked your gall bladder. Me, my mom and my husband all had to have our gall bladdders out. It took a hyda scan for them to find out that my stomach problems were due to the fact that my gall bladder was not functioning properly and making me n* all the time. Just a thought. They did every test on me and it wasn't until theydid the hyda scan that they found the problem and now I am a lot better then I was. Good luck and I hope you are feeling better!

    im sorry they didnt find anything. Is there any consolation knowing that theres no infection or all your organs are normal? I know it was for me when i wen to hospital for the same thing. they told me to take antacids when it starts again incase its reflux or indegestion.

    i went through the same thing several years ago......even lost my job because of missing so much work.....went to the hospital twice in an ambulance then the dr. finally admitted me and did tons of tests......to find absolutely nothing.........

    i had a long talk with myself.....i do this alot....kept reminding myself that all the tests were negative and there was nothing wrong with me........after i while i began to believe it and the stomach pains, etc went away....i never could have imagined that it was all stress/anxiety and in my head. i certainly haven't rid myself of emet......but i am able to talk myself out of feeling bad most of the time........

    hope things get better for you.......you should be atleast a little happy that they didn't find anything seriously wrong with you......
    how i feel about emet
