Why do i always feel sick?

I am not sure what the GF and the cat have to do with your sickness but I would rather guess you either have a stomach ulcer.. or gastritis... or maybe a hiatus hernia.. that is between your stomach and your diaphragm..which is just below the food pipe ... the esphagus.. if you got a hernia.. then sometimes a part of your stomach can come up through the valve into your chest cavity..it is not serious but it can be very painful and it causes heartburn and can cause burning chest pain as well.. an ulcer would cause pain or sickness and so would gastritis.. you should ask your doctor to give you a gastroscopy.. that means a small pipe...is inserted into your mouth..you are not allowed to eat or drink anything for 8 hours before the procedure.. then this pipe is put in your mouth and down into your esophagus..(food pipe and on into your stomach..and a little camera is attached to all this so the doctor who does the gastroscopy can look right into your stomach and esophagus and he will find if there is an inflammation or if you have a hernia.. it is not painful at all.. it only feels a bit uncomfortable.. as it is hard to swallow with that pipe in your mouth.. you can breathe just fine.. only if you swallow it hurts.. that is why he will spray something on your tongue before he starts to reduce the swallowing which is an involuntary action same as blinking but that stops salivar aculating and you need to swallow less often. if he finds nothing the whole procedure is over in 10 minutes. and you can go home.. and you know then if you have any stomach problems or not.. if you have an ulcer or gastritis you have to avoic spicy foods ... that will make it worse and most people who got that will lose weight.. xxx
