Comments on: The Sneeze/Nausea Connection - Redux http://moof.blogsplot.net/2006/10/28/sneeze-nausea-connection-redux/ Thu, 20 Nov 2008 14:49:48 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.1.2 By: Deb http://moof.blogsplot.net/2006/10/28/sneeze-nausea-connection-redux/#comment-12703 Deb Wed, 15 Nov 2006 03:20:45 +0000 http://moof.blogsplot.net/2006/10/28/sneeze-nausea-connection-redux/#comment-12703 I just started having this extremely deep nausea right before sneezing (relieving the nausea) in the past two weeks. While reading all these messages, I remembered that I just started taking a daily multivitamin with all sorts of stuff in it the last two weeks. I'm a bit overweight, but otherwise healthy. I'm a 22 year old biology student, and I've been really frustrated by these strange symptoms. Perhaps I'll try some experiments with the vitamins. I'll let you know if I discover any further correlation. I just started having this extremely deep nausea right before sneezing (relieving the nausea) in the past two weeks.

I always thought it had to do with the way that I squinted. If I feel a sneeze coming on, if I look up at the light, whether inside or out, I am usually successful in getting that sneeze out. I've only just recently started having acute nausea, and then having a "different" type of sneeze. Usually, I just sneeze once, but when I have one of these nausea triggered sneezes, I always have a very hard, double sneeze. Not two sneezes in a row, rather, I sneeze, and then without another second's interim, I sneeze again. Immediately, the nausea abates. I started metformin (glucophage) 850mg/2x daily a few weeks ago. I have taken this same medication before without sneezing. I also take a multi-vitamin, Omega3 Oil, and Oil of Oregano capsules. I have Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, which is the (off label) reason that I take metformin. I am overweight, but dieting. It was VERY noticeable once I started dieting (Atkins based) that the nausea/sneezing was a related phenomenon. I’ve always sneezed when going outside into the bright sun.

I first attributed this condition to extreme dieting/training. I am a fitness trainer and I'm constantly dieting. I do share some medical conditions with the others who posted here. I have hypertension (not taking any meds...yet) and I have had several sebaceous cysts on my scalp. I'd very muck like to understand why exactly this occurs I’m a 30/M and have been experiencing this nausea/sneeze thing for about a year.

My sister found this website, and I couldn't believe this happens to others! It started a few years ago. I have this sudden, horrible nausea followed by a sneeze and the nausea goes away. This happens almost every time I sneeze, and I have no idea why. I am a healthy 35 year old female and I really haven't had any other medical or physical problems. I don't take any medication, other than the occasional pain reliever. It is so bad sometimes I actually start running toward the restroom thinking I am going to get sick, and then once I sneeze it's gone. It would be WONDERFUL to know why this happens, or if there is anything that can be done to prevent it.

My experience has been similar, but I've always put the cause and effect differently. I've noticed that very often, when I am nauseous, I sneeze and the nausea relents. My nausea is rarely as severe as others have described, and it does not always go away for good when I sneeze, it simply dissipates. I suppose I always thought of it like the bright lights; I don't see bright lights just before I sneeze, I sneeze as a result of the bright lights. I'm 22 (female) and the only medical problems I've had have been associated with acid reflux- I don't take any regular medicine other than birth control. Hmm.

I am a 51 year old male in good health. Slightly overweight, hay fever since my teens. I have been having the nausea (mostly in the morning) followed by a sneeze which takes away the nausea completely. I read somewhere on Health.com before I found this site, that GERD (gastroesophogeal reflux disease) may be the cause. That would make sense for me, as I have been taking Prilosec on and off for several years now. Hope this may help/relieve some. Thank you for this, I feel better already knowing I'm not alone.
