Maybe TMI-Nausea during bowel movements?
There is a book out called "What's Your Poo Telling You." They describe "Poo-phoria". It's similar to what you are experiencing only it's more positive... an exhilarating experience from pooing. The 'best **** ever' type of feeling. :) Ever see the movie, "The Fisher King?" Robin William's character has one of those fantastic bathroom experiences in that movie. I love that movie.
Anyway, here is an article about it.

I've been thinking of asking this same thing today!
I had read that bearing down/straining when having a bowel movement can cause your blood pressure to drop which can cause nausea. I don't want to ever experience an anal fissure so I try hard to follow the rule 'let poop happen' but sometimes my body rebels and that tends to be when I get nauseous. I'm over 2 1/2 years out and it still happens to me. Not all that often and usually just nauseous but this week I actually vomited while on the toilet. Not fun.
Thanks for asking, this board is so helpful!

You are not the only one to get nauseous during bowel movements. It was really bad for me the first couple of weeks, but now it is not as often...maybe twice a week.
TMI but funny (not then, but now) In the beginning I remember sitting on the toilet and getting sick. The waste basket in the bathroom was full. Before I could wipe I started to vomit, so I just learned over and threw up in the bath tub. OMG...NEVER will I do that again! I spent the next hour cleaning up the mess and dry heaving. LOL
I hope you feel better soon
