Sometimes, when I eat very dry foods eg rice, it literally gets stuck in my chest, so I have to drink and make sure I take tiny bits and eat slow.   Acid reflux actually causes that feeling you mention...food or acid actually pushes up, opens the flap of your esophogus and food rises up.\n\nTry to eat less salty foods, foods with less preservatives, cut out pop and coffee and eat smaller meals and lots more plain cooked veggies and fresh fruit.  Avoid foods that cause you acid reflux.  For me GRAVY is the worst.  I don't get heartburn often but when I do it stays for hours.  \n\nI actually take a spoonful of vinegar, chase it down with water and it cures my heartburn better than any medication can.  Try and see if that helps.  Avoid lying down after eating.  If you can go for a walk and allow your food to digest.  \n\nI dont' know what to suggest as I know a lot of people that have acid reflux and nothing seems to help.  They do however eat a lot of the wrong types of foods which I think is a major cause.  Cut the spices and rich sauces out and have yogurts and soya milk and more healthier food choices and see if it makes a difference.  I know my body FEELS and thanks me when I give it good nutritious food! LOL

Your blood sugar could be fluctuating. That can give you a feeling of nausea. \n\nI once ate a 2 course meal yet 30 mins later my blood sugar was still dangerously low. Does make you feel pretty unwell I agree. Get it checked out would be my advice.

I'm not a doctor but I can say from experience, you could be feeling sick from something you ate, or you could have a virus.  Try eating saltines ... that always make me feel better.  If you're not feeling any better tomorrow, you should seek medical advice.  Hope you're feeling better soon.

See your doctor!  You could be reacting to something you eat.  \n"Or" you could have an internal infection in one of your organs, one of your organs could be compromised!\n\nGO AND SEE YOUR DOCTOR!!!!

First, try sipping plain water slowly. Start out with a couple of sips, and see if you hold it down. Try drinking the water normally, and see if that works. Then, try gatorade or an electrolyte solution(pedialyte or similar, availiable at a pharmacy). DONT drink clear soda, this will irritate your stomach. Once you know you can hold down water, try the other liquids you need for nutrition, since you won't be able to hold down solids yet. Once a day passes, you can try some solids. Start out with crackers and bread, and make sure you hold it down until you move on. You can try watery fruits, like watermelon or melons, too. The last thing you should eat is dairy and especially meat, as they require a lot of energy to break down, which when you have a stomach virus, you don't have. Hope this helps, feel better!

You are probably suffering from acid reflux. The acid from your stomach is going into your esophagus and burning the delicate lining away. It doesn't give you heartburn sensation all the time, but can cause pain that mimics a heart attack, or make it hard to breathe if the acid is aspirating into your lungs. Have your doctor send you for an endoscopy, where they put a tiny camera down your throat to take pictures; this will show if the lining is being eaten away. In the meantime, go by some Prilosec or Zantac and start taking that. You can combine it with Axid AR to reduce the acid in your stomach, and it should give you some relief. Avoid foods high in acid and spices, such as tomatoes and peppers.\n\nIf it was pain just from your gallbladder, you wouldn't get the pain only after eating. Intolerance for fatty foods is one of the signs, but the pain is usually more steady.

Your body has been assaulted by some sort of a bug and needs time to heal.  I would not worry too much about lack of appetite, it should come back.  In the meantime, continue to drink plenty of fluids and when you do eat, make sure it is not empty calories, in other words, junk food.  If you don't feel better after the weekend, I would go see the doctor, you might have a secondary infection that needs to be dealt with.

Sounds like you have an infection. \nLumps of green weird stuff that you cough up (called "sputum", but the way) can usually come from quite a range of infections, but mainly they are due to bacteria or a virus.\nA cough that produces sputum, along with other signs of getting a cold, namely: headache, runny nose, sore throat etc etc are due to viruses. \nHowever, when you are infected by a virus, your body's defences are low and there may be another infection that occurs at the same time, for example, a bacteria infection. Which means, when you are sick, the things you feel and experience can be due to many different organisms (well, virus isn't quite an organism but we won't get into that). \nThat's why sometime when you get a cold, a doctor will give you antibiotics. These are drugs that will kill the bacteria in the infection. However, it will NOT affect the virus.\nYour body will take care of that.\n\nAfter all that jibberish, the take home message is: If you feel sick, got a sore throat and headache, get some rest and drink lots of water (if you go to the doctor he'll tell you to do that too but he'll charge you an arm and leg for it). \n\nBUT, if you feel S**T, and have a fever, bodyache (when you just feel crap all over your body...a bit hard to describe but you know it when you have it), and more miserable than your average cold, go see a doctor.\nGreen sputum on its own should not worry you if you haven't got the other symptoms. But if things change, consider how bad you feel (that is often the best judge of how well/unwell you are), and go see a doctor if you feel crap.

it kind of makes you more tired and you have less energy. it kind of controls you also, coz all you think about is your weight, like when you're out with friends and they want to get something to eat, you feel you cant. it kinda takes over you. i also rots your teeth because of the stomach acid from being sick, and you end up with a sore stomach from retching, and you have blood vessels burst around your eyes. some people have swollen cheeks from swollen saliva glands- not nice!

Your digestive system is at work all the time and normally during the day you're eating at more or less regular intervals so there's food in your stomach to be digested.\n\nAfter a nights sleep there's likely to be little left to digest so you get feelings of hunger.\n\nPartly it will depend on what you eat - a 'heavy' meal high in fats and proteins for example, will take longer to digest than a 'light' meal such as a salad.

Idigestion may be the cause.  Try to correlate what you had to eat and how long before you went to bed.  Eating food that is too greasy or too late can cause acid reflux when you lay down.  Try eating a little less, i.e. stop before you feel FULL.\n\nAdjust your posture, sit up straight and push shoulders back, slouching especially over a keyboard for long periods will also give you these symptoms.\n\nI've had angina and a heart bypass about 8 yrs ago so it worries me when I get similar pains but I can usually get rid of them by straightening up, having a good belch, taking an antacid, etc.\n\nHope this helps.

Peristaltic contractions, which are the normal intestinal muscle contractions you body uses to move food from the mouth to the anus.  Having a stomach ache could mean you have inflamed your stomach for some reason (bacteria, virus, intolerance), in which case your body is abnormally attuned to this spot.  If there was any swelling, the contractions might be visible, since the musclelies on top of and around the intestines and stomach.  I would recommend warm liquids (chicken broth or decaffeinated tea would be good) to soothe the stomach and decrease swelling.

There are so many different things that have the same symptoms that it really makes good sense to see a Dr.  Especially if they last more than a day or so.\nWas there blood in your stool?  Red blood comes from downstream of the stomach, while coffee grounds looking blood comes up in the digestive area.  Blood being digested could easily make you feel sick.\nLow body fluid can lower your temperature and cause cramps.  Since you have been taking medication for excessive stomach acid, probably over the counter, you might have a bleeding ulcer.  A co-worker had one and passed out right in front of me!  It took a blood transfusion to get him going again.  Nothing to fool around about.  Go see a Dr.!

Go and see a GP and request for a MRI scan. The scan will X ray you inside out. This should help you to resolve some of your problems.\n\nUse the scan to check for cancer also. It may be something that makes you feel sick.
