No: We think of medications causing side effects while we think of medical conditions causing symptoms. Regardless, nausea isn't high on the list as being a symptom of hemochromatosis. Check out http://www.Mayoclinic.Com/health/hemochromatosis/ds00455/dsection=symptoms for more info. Simple blood test can determine if you have hemochromatosis or not. Your family doc can also evaluate & diagnosis nause.

No: Hemochromatosis is common, easy to diagnose correctly, and easy to treat. If missed, it will kill you. Hopefully you know this already. The only mechanism by which i can think of hemochromatosis causing nausea is by hypopituitarism-hypoadrenodorticism, which is advanced disease. If you have known hemochromatosis, look for another cause or your upset stomach.
