A member asked:
80 yo. uncle had cervical laminectomy in apr due to extreme radiculopathy, gets nausea for 3 hrs, thrice or more times a week. gp's tablets dnt help??

It is unclear: It is unclear if the meds and conditions listed are those of the uncle or the niece. However I am not sure that the laminectomy is the cause of the current problem. It may well be due to meds he takes or other medical condition such as ulcer. Does he take to much alcohol, caffeine or aspirin or ibuprofen . meds like these can cause ulcer. I would not be sure what is causing this, get reevaluation
