I was one with constant nausea from about the 4th week or so. Nothing worked for me. It was only after I just stopped taking all my meds that the nausea finally let up but it was still months before the gag reflex eased up.
Pain meds can cause nausea as well as dehydration and constipation. Heck even anti nausea meds can cause nausea.
