Gin, try some ginger tea. Don't laugh, it's what Barb's Ob-Gyn recommends her pregnant patients for morning sickness. I had a really eroded esophagus from acid reflux a couple or so years back and my Dr put me on Aciphex.
I was on it for a couple of months and then went to a gastroentologist for a test, the one where they run a tube down your throat and look at things.
He found evidence of healed erosion but everything looked good and all healed up so no new medical procedures was necessary.
I take 10 mg Compazine for my nausea but it doesn't always help. I don't think it's related to the acid reflux but to the Methotrexate I have to inject every Saturday evening for the Stills Disease.
Methotrexate is a chemotherapy drug that's administed in low dosages for rhumatiod arthritis patients either in pill or injectable form. But even the low dosage is starting to make me nauseaous now. I'm still sick today from the shot Saturday night as it sometimes affects me for two days instead of just one.
The Compazine suppositories work much better than the pills but are prohibitively expensive for us except when I get really, really, sick sometimes.
As for the ginger tea I drink it myself sometimes, probably ought to try some this morning since the Compazine doesn't seem to be working all that well this morning.
You need to be careful with the amount of ginger you put in the hot water as a full teaspoon can be way too hot to handle, I generally use about a third of a regular household teaspoon instead of one of the accurate measureing spoons.
It's fine to sweeten it with the sweetener of your choice.
I hope you get some help soon! I know just how damned miserable it can be when you can't eat anything for getting sick and yet are still hungry. I imagine that Bill knows as well too.
