Why does a stomach ulcer cause nausea after eating. i did have weak postive occult blood test. should i worry. my hgb is stable. should i worry?

YES: Nausea, vomiting, and blood in stool is always an ominous presentation. Hopefully you are on therapy for your ulcer. The nausea is from pain and stimulation of the vagus nerve.
