Gaging after eating? .....................My daughter,38 , Has been doing this

[lilacben]

over a week now. She has never been very good with food. and her diet isnt very good at all. This has been an on going thing since she was young. But last week she mentioned this to me and today I have seen what she means. Within ten minutes of eating she started urging or gaging as if she was going to be sick. This is putting her off of eating anything. Could anyone shed a light to this for me please. I must say I have told her she needs to see the doctor asap. Many thanks

ow just one thing. I did wonder if it was stress related as this last week they have been moving. Although are now in the new house since friday.

Ofcourse it could be stress related. Someone I know felt sick after eating. After food diets etc, it was actually a stomach infection. It could be an ulcer maybe. But we can only say maybe to all. She needs to see a doctor. Good luck.

I get that sometimes, not when eating but when anything else is on my mouth, like a toothbrush or a spoon it was worse when I was pregnant. Did mention it to the doc, think he said something like over active/sensitive gag reflex. If I think about anything in my mouth I start gagging, dentist visits are a nightmare, especially if they have to take an impression, god, I'm gagging just thinking about that. I'm a sick sympathiser as well, if anyones throws up around me then, woof.

Let us assess the situation:

Symptoms on week only. No pain or vomiting. Unlikely to be an ulcer or anything sinister at this stage. Yes, it could well be stress related.

Monitor the situation for the next 2 weeks.

Used to happen to me loads. Sometimes I actually get sick as well. I've always been a slow eater but now I eat even slower. That seems to have helped.
