Good afternoon!
I had GK 3 months ago and I started feeling off about a month ago.
Severe nausea. I’m very concerned because I visited different doctors and they don’t seem to know what’s going on. Anyone here that has or had the same thing?
Thank you so much!!!!! :)

Hi, I had GK 2 months ago, so am not much help, but I remember one girl I know had nausea immediately after GK for a while, I think they put her on steroids. Maybe ask your doctor if steroids may help? where did you have GK? Do you have a GK nurse you can call? I have read some symptoms start around the 3-4 month mark. Hope you are able to get some help with this. nausea is the absolute worst...I am a nauseous person in general for a variety of different things.

I had extreme nausea right after my GK procedure on 12/17/18 for about 10 days. It is definitely one of the side effects. I had to take Zofran which helped allow me to function but has its own unpleasant side effects. I was also told that in some cases people develop vertigo at six months which can also cause nausea as well. Hope you feel better soon. I agree with kestes, nausea is the absolute worst.

One radiation oncologist told me that around 3 months after GK is when the tumor is dying off and sheds cells (?) which apparently can lead to feeling crappy.
I'm almost exactly 6 months after GK and still feel bad at times.
