I get really bad nausea with my IBS and I also feel it with anxiety too so sometimes I can't tell whats causing me to feel sick.  I have never vomited but do often feel so sick I can't eat.  I take motilium (domperidone) to help combat the nausea caused by IBS and that often does the trick.  Often, just the motions of peristalsis can make me feel quesey.

I'm like Victoria... I get nausea but I don't vomit from it. I have come close quite a few times from eating foods I wasn't supposed to, but I never have vomitted from IBS nausea. I usually choke down some tea and give it time.

Nausea, and especially vomiting, are not generally associated with IBS (although, as you can see, there are always exceptions to the rule!), and are often symptoms of other problems, like a bad gall bladder. GERD can also cause vomiting and nausea, as can severe constipation.

I quite often get nausea.  It usually gets worse as the pain gets worse and it often results in bringing up stomach bile.  I have been hospitalized on numerous occasions and find myself asking for help with the nausea instead of the pain.  On a more regular basis, I wouldn't say I vomit as much as I just bring food back up, I guess like regurgitating(sp?)  Again this is something that my doctor doesn't seem overly concerned about and has told me that it is all part of IBS.

Ginger is supposed to do wonders for nausea. I drink the tea but they also have capsules (I think I've heard them mentioned here). It might be something to look into for you.

Hi JustK- Nausea was my main symptom for the bulk of the time I've had IBS.  I mean, in the beginning, I could barely choke down pepsi or gingerale.  It totally sucked.  No one knew what was going on. I did and still do get the D but also get pretty constipated.  However, the nausea nearly killed me.  I lost 24 pounds in 3 weeks.  I am now back to a normal weight.  It has been over two years.  I have had a gatric emptying scan, abdominal ultrasound, pelvic ultrasound, barium swallow, endoscopy and a colonoscopy.  Technically, there's "nothing wrong" with me.  I was crazy- I didn't know what to do.  What i hated even more was that people would look woefully at me and tell me I was anxious.  F that.  I wanted to say, 'People, I can barely stand up here'.  I was actually initially diagnosed with 'chronic nausea'.  And the GI at the time said, 'well, you're just gonna have good days and bad days.'  Great.  The recovery thus far has been slow but I've learned a lot on this site and people have been very kind.  I read 'Eating for IBS' and 'Surviving the First Year of IBS'.  I've done the 100- day hypnotherapy program designed for IBS and i have been doing acupuncture since Sept.  I will soon be posting my experience with both the hypnotherapy and acupunture as both have been tremendously helpful.  Good luck and hope you feel better.
