Chronic nausea

I started fluoxetine (Prozac) in April of this year and begun to feel incredibly nauseous and have zero appetite as well as diarrhoea (I rapidly lost lots and lots of weight). The nausea became unbearable so I came off of it. 2 months later I am still experiencing intense bouts of nausea that are hugely impacting my day to day life. I'm being tested next week for H Pylori in a stool sample but I can't go on living like this.
Other than having had a vomiting bug in between, I've not actually been sick, but the nausea is debilitating. I don't know how much longer I can cope.
Has anyone had this experience due to fluoxetine or just chronic nausea generally?
I feel incredibly sick upon eating anything (during a flare) meaning I go days without eating. In between when the nausea isn't so bad I have bloating and gas and constipation. But in the acute stage the nausea itself is unbearable and the main symptom.

Ask your doctor for an anti nausea tablet, I use one called cyclizine which I find mostly effective. I don't need to use it every day just maybe a few times per month when the nausea becomes debilitating. I have GERD & IBS-constipation, that's what they think causes my frequent nausea.
