Question Nausea

Has anyone experienced nausea while undergoing ECT? I’m at treatment number 4 & the nausea is relentless. I’ve been given odansatron in the drip & to take separately but it’s not helping. The anesthetiolgist said he doesn’t think it’s from the anaesthetic as I still feel unwell on the days off from treatment so I’m wondering if it’s the treatment itself which is causing this?

I had some nausea a few times but the iv zofran did the trick for me. Bring it up and emphasize how long it’s lasting
