I definitely get it. Not all the time, but often. I haven't thrown up, but have came close. Most of the time, I jsut don't feel like eating or food makes me gag, because my stomach just feels "yuck"

Oh yeah I get it alot!!! The only time I have gotten sick is when the pain is really bad but usually I just get nausea and take deep breeths slow down a little find something that might calm your stomach like crakers or sipping water or sierra mist or something. good luck I know it suck. (HUGS)

I have it too... and again, not all the time but often enough that it almost feels like all the time. I take gravol which helps a lot! and I eat crackers or something which helps the nausea feeling but not the Endo pain (just can't win). You are NOT alone, not at all. I hope you find something that helps you and if you do, please post it!

Peppermint tea eases nausea. Bananas can as well. Try to always keep a tiny amount of food in your stomach, I find I get nauseous when I am hungry more so. There is also baby gravol, which makes you less tired.

Nausea, definitely. Off and on all month. I haven't tried anything lately, but in the past Peppermint Tea did work for me as well.

Always, always, always had nausea.. In fact, it was my main symptom before my 2nd surgery. I got to the point where I was taking Phenergan every 6 hours just so I could function.

Like as has already been said, Peppermint helps. If you have a way to get Peppermint oil, it helps to smell it and also to rub it over your stomach. Also, don't let your stomach get empty. That just compounds the problem.

Maybe try an ice pack on the back of your neck, or you could try a sea sickness band. Hope you find something that helps!

I want to thank all of you for your replies! I have tried most of the suggestions, but nothing seems to work, however, it is really nice to know I'm not alone! I don't understand how we are supposed to live our lives with the constant flu, but I suppose I will just have to deal with it. I asked my doctor and he didn't even think it had to do with endo., he told me it was probably heart burn and that I should take zantac b4 bed. I am 26 yrs. old and I am taking 8 pills a day. Everytime something comes up, they push some pill on me! I have to have a special pill case just to get through the day! Anyway, I thank you for all of your advice and support! Hugs, angc

i just posted something about this last night! i wish i saw your post first, because i have had bouts of nausea and vomiting! i also get really bad headaches. I had no idea if this had something to do with the endo or not, but now seeing others reactions and their experiences, i see that I am not alone!! which thats a great feeling--knowing you're not alone. i started to feel so odd because I wondered, why am i always feeling so sick?? now i know that i'm not the only one feeling like this. thank you.

I replied to the other post, but I also asked my doc if it was a symptom, and he said any time you're in this much pain, it causes nausea. So, I'm pretty sure it's a normal thing.

I have noticed that the worse my pain is, the more likely it is that I begin vomiting. When I was in the ER last July, the doc gave me a Rx for Promethazine to stop the nausea. It somewhat helped, but I also drank peppermint tea, and they both seemed to help. I have also noticed a slight increase in nausea when taking pain pills, which sucks because there is not much more we can do to ease pain. Even if you are not feeling hungry, eat small meals or snacks throughout the day so you do not begin vomiting bile. Not only is it really gross, but that itslef can become painful as well. Good luck!

Running to the store after work today to pick up some peppermint tea. I feel nausea quite often and end up getting sick at least once a day, it is really embarrassing at work... I mostly get sick after having to drive somewhere, the pressure of the seltbelt against my tummy causes waves of pain, I have tried to wear it looser but was informed if I was ever in another accident it would do more damage not wearing it properly.
Looking forward to trying the tea (yummy)

I get nauseous sometimes during my actual period, but that's it.

I started getting really bad nausea and bad headaches usually the week before my period almost every day. I never had those symptoms before but now I know it is from the endo. Have you ever tried cola syrup? You can get it at any drug store like walgreens or rite aid.
May work for you for the nausea.

Whenever there is severe pain, nausea is not far behind. But for some reason endo can just cause you to be sick to your stomach too. You can't win either way.

Right before my surgery I was in constant pain and I actually threw up about once a day. I would be at work, helping a customer, when I would get that feeling. It happened so much I learned how to act normally when I excused myself to go puke in the bathroom then come back.

A lot of times I notice that I can't eat a lot when I'm in pain. I usually keep peppermint essential oil around - it's really strong and just smelling it helps take away that feeling.

Another trick - I carry a travel size Listerine with me. Especially before my surgery. So when I did throw up, I could wash out my mouth and make it sanitized again, without a lot of fuss.
