I have been the exact same. I am now 13 weeks, and spend my whole day trying not to throw up. I have been taking 8 mg of Zofran (anti-nausea medicine given normally to Chemo patients) and did great for the first week. I was taking 50mg of B6 3 times a day that week also. Well, I thought I was feeling good enought to stop taking the B6 and with in about 2 days I was sick again. I learned that B6 has to build up in your system and when you suddenly stop taking it, it can cause nausea. I am back on the B6 for the last 2 days, feeling a little better, but not as good as I felt the first week on Zofran. I am thinking it is the combonation that works. I feel for her, I know how bad it is. At least she doesn't have to go to work everyday like I do. The only other thing that has helped (temporary) is Ginger Candy. There is a ginger chew I found at a health food store called "Reed's", that helped for a while, it seems for me that I get worse every week, not better. I sure hope this goes away soon!! Well, tell you daughter she isn't the only one. And now I know I am not either, sure was starting to feel that way. :)
