My dad had the same problem. He had terrible nausea and although he had a PEG he still could not keep any food down. We tried all the medication that others mentioned and even had a GI test to make sure nothing was wrong with the PEG. Nothing was wrong and the nausea passed. He did end up in the hospital several times with dehydration. So, force the water, even if he cannot tolerated the food.
Good luck, Boston
