I feel sick and weak several times a week. Strong headaches, nausea and a general feeling of weakness. I also vomit quite often. Whenever I take exams, I search and search for things but there is nothing wrong. A few months ago, I did a series of test and there was a thyroid nodule but I made more tests and it was nothing. The doctors also worried about some pituitary gland issue, but nothing got confirmed. But I keep feeling bad and bad, and I can't stand it anymore.

Are you on any medication :?: I'm asking because lots of meds can cause those problems.

Have you been tested for stomach problems like acid reflux & gull bladder stones :?: My girlfriend has similar stomach problems except she doesn't vomit(she just feels like there's a chance) & it's due to gull stones & acid. She takes Protonix for it. She also has has anxiety & other mental & physical things that can manifest as some kind of stress illness that causes her to feel like she's getting sick. It can also aggravate her stomach problems. I'm not saying that's what's going on with you thou but might be worth considering if you feel stressed, anxious, &/or overwhelmed alot.

OK. I understand that but a regular doc like a General Practitioner can treat anxiety too but they may not want to or be quite as good at it. I find I have much better luck treating my mental stuff by seeing my GP & doing research than I ever did seeing a psych. Anyways... I hope someone else gives some ideas/suggestions.
