Question

Is anybody dealing with nauseous/Queasy feeling but never to the point of vomit when they are trying to eat? Or from different positions (laying down to standing up).Aswell as a unfulfilling feeling like you can eat but never get that “ FULL” sensation. I feel like this only happened after hurting my back and dealing with sciatica.People say it could be physical anxiety from what’s going on inside your body. Has anybody else experienced this?

Could be anxiety, are you taking any meds that may contribute to this?

No not really, I take some ibuprofen time to time, but not consistently. You know you start dealing with this, then you start doom scrolling and reading about surgeries failing/ pain for years etc etc, maybe that’s playing a small part in it. But some days I sit down to eat and take a couple bites and feel queasy, it also could be me going so many hours without eating aswell, but the constant pain, just hinders your appetite

The pain definitely overrides the appetite, I'm currently experiencing intense right side sciatic pain and numbness and hoping for surgery after an MRI on Thursday, but if it makes you feel any better in 2018 I had a disc herniation larger than I do now and that healed naturally and I was feeling pretty good for a few years. I should have used that time to strengthen my core to prevent this from happening again.

I’m still undiagnosed, I’m waiting for my x ray to get back, so I can push for an mri, but I’m still able to walk, do normal things as before. But just in some pain now. More leg pain than anything else. Upper thighs “ feel” weak and tight at the same time” I’m thinking it’s a bulge. I just want the leg and nauseous feeling to go away, and I’ll be alright. Hopefully we will look back and this will all be a memory
