About a year ago I started dry heaving and feeling nauseous. Went to see a doctor who ordered blood tests and everything came back normal so she sent me on my way. 

Throughout 2020 I would experience waves of nausea and dry heave (but never vomit) repeatedly throughout the day. I found caffeine to be a trigger but other than that, I couldn't spot a trend. 

Fast forward to Christmas 2020, I reached out to a different doctor and she suspected it could be anxiety but said she didn't want to overlook underlying physical problems so she's doing some other tests first. 

I don't know why it never occurred to me until the doctor mentioned anxiety that the nausea and dry heaving could be caused by anxiety. Gravol and ginger seems to help with the nausea and dry heaving so I assumed it was purely physical. 

Anyone else with this experience? How do you cope?
