Chronic vomitinh

Hey sunkissed64 I'm not a doctor, but to me it sounds like you're experiencing a little bit of dysautonomia. I have experienced similar symptoms of vomiting, low blood pressure and feeling completely wiped. It's common for people with our issues to develop sensitive stomachs, so for me personally it's helped to cut out gluten and dairy. I would try to lower gluten and dairy and see if this helps your stomach problems and feeling nauseous. I saw a fabulous doctor who specializes in this type of autonomic dysfunction and he advises his patients to exercise daily and increase their salt intake to increase blood pressure. I know exercising can feel like the last thing you want to do, but the more you rest and avoid exercise the worse you'll feel... at least if you're experiencing what I did before with orthostatic intolerance and dysautonomia. I increased my exercise and salt intake which helped a lot and would probably be enough if I didn't work at a desk job where I sit still all day. I now take Fludrocortisone to keep my blood pressure up which has helped a lot, but if I were you I would first try exercising daily (moderate exercise such as brisk walking or something similar to get your heart rate up) and increasing your salt intake and drinking lots of water. Definitely keep an eye on your blood pressure though if you do take my advice of increasing salt. Best of luck and hope you feel better soon!

You've described the beginning of the death of my gallbladder, except that I've always had low blood pressure. I imagine it was even lower than usual when I was in the hospital, dehydrated. (I already knew that I had a small hiatal hernia & GERD.)

My gallbladder never showed any sign of what a doctor would heed as gallbladder disease, except for the vomiting. Over time my bowel habits changed too. So just don't shut out this possibility if they can't figure it out. There is a French gallbladder diet which takes care of stones. If interested, pm me.

Exercise is always great. The protonix/nexium etc. route is only good short term. I found diet changes helpful to avoid reflux & hernia issues, also sleeping on my back. If you want more info, pm me.

My rheumo said Sjogren's killed my gallbladder. At that point, surgery is necessary. I wish I'd known about the gallbladder diet. Maybe would've helped, maybe not; I'd try anything sensible to have avoided another surgery.

Sunkissed, have your doctors tested you for celiac disease?  I have found through research that up to 15 - 20% of sjogren's patients also have celiac disease.

Have you been checked for autoimmune disease like celiacs? Also have you been checked for B12 or low iron?  Hope you feel better very soon!!
