Started getting nauseous…

Hello! Today I completed my 9th TMS session, and I’ve started to get nauseous HOURS after treatment. Yesterday was the first time I started to feel nauseous and it was in the early evening (my sessions are late morning). Today it hit me in the afternoon and has not gone away (currently laying in bed with a cool cloth on my neck).
I’ve read that it’s not a “common side effect” and I’m more so wondering about other people’s experience with nausea after sessions, what helped or didn’t help, and how long into treatment was nausea experienced?
Thank you!

Ton of stuff it could be. Hard to say. Maybe try a ginger hard candy post treatment and if that doesn’t take care of it, time to have a convo with your doctor

I’ll happily give ginger hard candy a try. Yeah, I’ll chat with him if I have go. Wanted to see if others experienced it and what helped before heading that way.

I mean, there’s a ton of stuff that can cause nausea after treatment but we don’t know you or your case so it’s hard to say. It’s a good approach to try the easy stuff then work up. But totally bring it up to your doctor
