Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Sinusitis / April 2006Keep feeling like vomit, why?
In recent weeks, I keep feeling like vomit but I don't see obvious trigger for it. I am 29 yr old male, have a long history of sinus problems including frequent sneeze/runny/stuffy nose. My sinus symptoms have actually relieved by a lot lately. Sometimes when I am on the road, feeling the urge to clear throat and cough, and a feeling of vomit suddenly pop up, in order to surpress it I usually get a red face and throat. What is the problem with me? It sounds like you have acid reflux (Gerds), I have the same symptoms sometimes when I am in a car too. Like dry heaves and keep saltine crackers in the glove department that helps a lot. That reflux just seems to pop up all of a sudden without any warning. shirleyann >It sounds like you have acid reflux (Gerds), I agree ....... > >It sounds like you have acid reflux (Gerds), > > I agree ....... Thank you Brady and Shirley. Thinking back to the past few months, my sinus condition improved, and at the same time I changed to a higher and more solid pillow. If the GERD hypothesis is true, it must be the pillow that prevented acid from flowing into my throat and cause sinus problems. On the other hand, the solidness of the pillow allowed less air to flow in/out of the pillow, which carries dust & mites. I have to sleep on one of those wedge pillows, it helps me from getting that reflux. The wedge pillow is very narrow on 1 side and gradually raises to 3-4 inches. It is made of foam, not the soft kind. Some people complain about them as it hurts their lower back . shirleyann > In recent weeks, I keep feeling like vomit but I don't see obvious trigger > for it.

You don't mention headache, so I don't know if this applies to you, but sinus inflammation triggers a migraine episode for me and this causes vomiting often. Lately, due to increased moisture and mold and stuff blooming, I've had at least weekly headache triggered vomiting episodes, and many more episodes of feeling like throwing up. It's the pain behind my right eye that's most associated with these episodes. Using Astelin with an NSAID before bed and daily saline irrigation helps prevent this for me.

On the other hand, I tend to believe it is the sinus & vomit conditions which triggered headaches. Maybe, before the vomit episode is eminent, tunnels like throat and nose have already suffered a lot due to liquid and gas from stomache. Drinking warm water in small amout in frequent intervals to clear the acid from throat, does it work? > Headache and drowsiness is a side effect of sinus conditions. 9/10 of my > sudden [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > which > triggered headaches. My sinus condition triggers my headaches, which become full blow migraines. Migraines are often accompanied by vomiting, as in my case.

I don't have GERD. Susan > In recent weeks, I keep feeling like vomit but I don't see obvious trigger > for it.

Patients often may have no other symptoms but cough. Hope it helps. > In recent weeks, I keep feeling like vomit but I don't see obvious trigger > for it.

When it does happen, it's almost always in the morning, right after I get up. Sometimes I'll actually 'heave' up some phlegm. What a way to start the day, eh? I frequently have post nasal drip and when I have these morning 'heave' sessions, it's when I'm most congested. I hadn't even thought that it might be acid-reflux. Hmmm. I have acid reflux (Gerds) now, sometimes I get the same re=action that you are having, especially traveling in a car. It will start with dry heaves first than a cough. I keep saltines in our glove compartment and have a couple of those when I feel like I am going to upchuck (vomit). Try to eat something in the morning before you go to work or on the road. That helps me now. I had this symptom a couple of years before I was diagnosed with Gerds. shirleyann I to have this problem.. More so if it is cold & I get cold at night..I have a history of asthma in the family.. Peggy > > In recent weeks, I keep feeling like vomit but I don't see obvious trigger > > for it.
