Pain and Nausea
Hi all! I have been gone so long! Here is my question. For about the last year, every time I take my morning meds, immediately I develop pain in my upper abdomen going through to my back and severe nausea. It happens within 1 minute of me taking my pills. No matter how much water I drink with them or even if I hide the pill in a bite of food, it still happens. I literally have to lie down flat on my belly for about 2 minutes, then it is gone and I go about my day! This NEVER happens when I eat or drink, only when I take a pill!!?? Anyone else know what I am talking about? It happens to my daughter as well! Please advise!
Thanks,
Holly

How strange! I would first try to change the method of taking the pill, then try cutting the pill in half if possible.
The way I take pills is I fill my mouth with liquid first and tilt my head back. I drop the pills in, swallow and don't feel or taste a thing. I can take a handful of pills at once this way.

Yep, I've tried that too. Every now and then there is a day I take my pills that it doesn't happen, for instance for about the previous 2 weeks, no pain, the past 3 days....same pain! I've tried everything! Somedays, I don't take my meds because I don't want to deal with the pain and nausea. I am a Registered nurse, and I know I shouldn't do that....but Hell!
