Q My endoscopy and blood tests were normal, yet the nausea continues. Does that mean the cause was missed?
A Tests look at injury and inflammation of the lining, so problems of movement and sensitivity appear normal. The cause was not missed — it sits outside what these tests examine. Since dangerous causes are now excluded, this is a good point to shift towards management.
Detailed Answer
The same nausea may arise from delayed emptying, from sensitised nerves, or from the balance organs of the inner ear. So "what is normal" matters less than "in which situations and at what times do you feel sick". Looking at the relationship with meals, posture and time of day narrows the branches.
Korean Medicine Clinic Perspective
Our examination begins by pressing the abdomen directly and reading the pulse to see how stiff the stomach has become. This is the very point at which most people told "nothing is wrong" come to us.
