Nausea and upset stomach after you eat. Almost immediately after I eat the last bite of anything--I feel like I have to puke (thankfully I never do). I've actually had to leave restaurants to go lay down in the car. This has been going on since I've been a patient--10 YEARS with no end in sight. And I don't overeat either--my appetite never came back since I was diagnosed. I eat very little. Anyone else suffering with this? If so is there anything I can do? I appreciate any info you can give me.

I have bouts where i hardly eat anything then days were i eat like a horse ! Some days i feel sick after food , but mostly im sick in the evening , i tend to put it down to the toxins in our bodies , but sometimes the medication you are on can be the problem.

I recently discovered that the Phoslo I had been taking for 5 years was causing nausea, but only at breakfast. I finally figured out to take it after breakfast on a full stomach instead of before on am empty one. Could it be your phosphorus binder?
-
I was sick to my stomach from the Sensipar - every meal, no matter what one I took it with.
-
My husband has nausea after every meal- sometimes he pukes-sometimes not. It used to be so much more incredibly severe, after much med. switching, and his body just having had time to heal and adjust to no kidneys (he had perfect function- cancer took his last kidney) it has settled down.
-
Stephen can not take any meds on an empty stomach. If he does he gets sick. With even a little food he is usually fine.
-
Same here, especially prednisone.
-
I feel sick for the first about hour I'm awake in the morning, since I take my sensipar before bed.
-
Well shoot...I've been having major stomach problems since starting taking Sensipar during my evening meal like I was told by the Dr., so now they said to take it before bed so that's what I will start tonight...now I don't know about that either. But my PTH has dropped.

I had been taking for Phoslo for almost 2 years, the entire time I have been on dialysis, but just recently, it started making me VERY nausea once I would take it after I ate. I would eventually throw up and would not feel nausea afterwards but still would feel like crap from just throwing up. So, after a few times of telling my dietician she suggested to the neph to switch me to Renvela and so far, I think I have only gotten nausea & threw up twice. You did not say what, if any, binders you are taking? Are you feeling better? Let us know how you are doing. :waving;

Hi Tammy...yahoo..Binders....I just got BACK on Phoslo...one neph took me off and put me on Fosrenol for some reason and I hated it..hated it...and finally got back on Phoslo..I take it before I eat and never a problem....this is why I have Fosrenol 1000 to give away as soon as possible...I want it gone....I feel good physically but just can't shake the depression that happens every few weeks....or more....oh and I got to stop the sensipar for now...go figure, just bought another refill...pharmacies are loving us :rofl;

G-Ma,

TW, Sensipar is a pill for lowering parathyroid hormone levels (PTH).

Hi.
If your on the transplant list this is a bad Idea. but if your not, I highly recommend pot. it has helped me with appetite and insomnia. Lot's more than the crap the doctor give me.
They say there is a mold that grows on weed that can cause you to lose your transplant. I wonder. There are also a few elderly people at my clinic that smoke. they say that it makes all the difference in the world for them. Again, if your on the transplant list it's not a good idea..
