nausea meds not working

Ok, my nausea meds are just not working, don't want to show up again in ER, realize the pills are not as effective a the IV form, any suggestions?

I've had protonix, zofran and am holding out on the phenergen until bedtime as it will kick butt
If that doesn't work, am clueless

know that nausea meds calm stomach so I can eat and if I don't, stomach acid multiplies........egads.........knock me out for a week!

just needed to vent

I don't really have a solution to offer but thought I'd take a stab at the culprit.  Do you still receive steroids with your Tysabri infusions?  Methylprednisolone is a much more likely candidate to cause this type of severe nausea than Tysabri is.

I was trying to get anti-nausea meds from my oncologist but she said to talk to my GI doc - can't see him for another week. Sorry, I can't help. I've never taken any. Well, maybe they gave me some for my hysterectomy surgery, but I don't remember.  

My partner can't take Phenergan - it makes her neck and face going into rapid involuntary spasms.  

I hope you can find one that works good for you.
