A member asked:

For what other reasons could one feel queasiness and sensitivity to smells besides prenancy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Migraines: One possible reason for queasiness (nausea) and sensitivity to smells (osmophobia) is migraine. This is possible even if a person does not have the typical severe migraine headache. Migraine without head pain is called acephalgic migraine.
