Help! My daughters wedding is in a week and a half. What can I do for chiari nausea
Posted , 7 users are following.
Is there anyone else out there that was diagnosed after age 50? I didn't have any symptoms until I was 55 and was diagnosed by MRI in June. My symptoms are headache and nausea. I get sick with no warning and my daughter is getting married in a week and a half.. I need something to help me so I can make it through the day. I am only taking an anti inflammatory drug (meloxicam) right now. I did take 3 days of Dexamethasone and that worked for the 3 days I took it. What has worked for anyone else? Any advice would be appreciated!

Sounds silly, but what really helps me is seabands. It's just two wrist-band like bracelets. They're originally for motion sickness. I wear them all day and more often than not, it completely eliminates my nausea! You can get them at Target. (Link below)

That actually sounds like a good idea, I will try that as it is bit like a motion sickness or some days like vertigo as I'm very dizzy..

Hi Wendy's I suffer from nausea every morning, I had decompression surgery 3yrs ago, it has eased the pressure headaches but has left me with dizziness and nausea first thing.. I take an antisickness drug and I'm ok rest of day.. They gave me 3 different ones to take but I'm on one now, Ondansetron 4mg.. Have a word with your Dr to see if can prescribe anything.. Hope you have a fab day xx

Hi WEndy, The Specialists put me on Topomax, Sumatriptan, and Rizatriptan...I was on these for about a year and they really did not do much for me. Until my Neurologist recommended MigreLief and Multivitamin B complex and Tumeric. These can be found at your local health store or Amazon. I also take Ginger capsules or drink Ginger tea whenever I feel nauseous. So far this is helping me get by. I have not gotten my head decompressed yet. I'm a chicken to have it done...but I know soon I will have to get it done if I want a normal life. Being in pain everyday sucks and not being able to do the things you enjoy also sucks.

Try not to stress, I know that is hard but It makes The situation a lot worse, the tension aggravates the stomach, then making you sick which then gives you a worse headache. These are my symptoms to a tea, I find getting lots of rest and deep breaths is a great help, positive thinking does wonders. It doesn't get rid of them, enjoy the day and good luck
