Well, obviously nausea and vomiting are signs of something really wrong...if it was a one time thing it could be a virus or food poisoning but since it has happened more than once you need to meet with your doctor to check this out...It could be a sign of gallbladder trouble , low sugar, etc..I see by your med list that more than 1/2 of your meds are for mental issues....not physical issues...may I gently suggest that there might be a better approach to your mental health than just pill after pill ? Get your physical health taken care of first then look to something better for your mental health than just pill after pill...counseling, meditation , a device like the alpha stim or fisher wallace system might help you ...you should not have to rely on a pill to get a good nights sleep...there has to be a better approach for you. Its easy for your doctor to just give pill after pill but thats the easy approach...So, get the tests for the vomiting...blood work..ultrasound of the abdomen etc but then work on the mental health ....in the long run thats more important. Dont be afraid to ask your doctor for a referral if he is too busy...Best of luck
You possibly could be having issues with blood sugar or with your blood pressure. Get your blood pressure checked ASAP and get evaluated by a doctor. You are on so many medicines--one medicine for this, another for that, and another to treat the side effects of the other ones. We think doctors know what we are doing but to be honest, we don't have clinical studies on people taking ALL the medications you are on TOGETHER. I like the doctor's suggestions below about helping yourself via meditation, counseling, etc. I find that Prozac tends to make people lethargic and 'blah'. It never fixes the issue; it just covers it up. Biofeedback is a great techniquie that is helpful in depression and it's fun. See if there is a counselor who does biofeedback in your area.
It is indeed time to - at a MINIMUM - schedule an appointment ASAP with your physician. If they are not able to see you today, I'd recommend going to an Urgent Care or ER. At the least, you need to have your medications reviewed for possible side effects and/or interactions. Wish you the best, please get seen.
Best to be examined thoroughly.
It seems that you likely have gastroenteritis which could be viral or bacterial but most importantly warrants a visit to your primary care doctor as soon as possible for further evaluation and to rule out other possible causes as well. I agree with Dr Barry and Dr Derwood's assessment about addressing the polypharmacy of medications you are taking currently and need to address other ways to treat some of your chronic medical conditions.
Certainly the symptoms you described warrant investigation, so see your family doctor or internist about this. There are a number of possible causes for these events, and making a diagnosis is beyond the scope of a web page posting. The condition you describe could be trivial or serious depending on the cause. I do agree with Dr. Barry; we have become a fix it with a pill society. That does not mean that medication does not have a role in maintaining your health, but we Americans have developed the expectation that we do not need to do anything ourselves to feel better. A healthy diet, exercise within the capabilities of your health, weight management and prayer or meditation could help more than some of the medications you are taking. All of your medical conditions would benefit from a healthy lifestyle. First, you have to take charge (and responsibility) for your health. Talk to your doctor about this; you will probably be surprised at the positive reaction that you get! Good luck!
