so sometimes i still get nauseous

here's what i found. from this site.

"If you do not have diabetes, but you develop symptoms of hypoglycemia, try eating more regularly. Your symptoms may be triggered by becoming more physically active, which means you need to eat so your body has fuel to function, according to the Oregon State University Student Health Services."

maybe i just wasn't eating enough...

also there's this thing called.

"Gastroparesis is a condition where your vagus nerve stops functioning correctly. As this happens, your stomach isn’t signaled to empty its contents into your small intestine, leading to a constantly full feeling, nausea, belching and possible vomiting. When you do feel hunger, you can only eat a few bites before beginning to feel sick again.Your doctor can diagnose this condition, if this is what is causing your hunger/nausea feeling. One test is called a “gastric emptying scan,” requiring you to eat a small meal. Medical x-ray technicians take x-rays as your food moves through your digestive system. If, after a set amount of time, the x-rays still show a significant amount of food in your stomach, your doctor diagnoses gastroparesis. Milder cases can be treated with medications that stimulate your stomach to contract and move its contents to your small intestine, according to MedHelp.Eat foods low in fiber and fats. Increase your intake of simple carbohydrates and eat smaller, frequent meals. Instead of eating three large meals, break these up into six smaller meals."
