Nausea can be due to some Gi problem, but you are already consulting a gastroenterologist , adrenals can be responsible for high stress levels. but there will be other symptoms in that case. high BP, high sugars, increasing weight, striae , muscle weakness. is she having any of these? then there can be electrolyte imbalance as well. still if you doubt you can get her cortisol 8 am fasting sample done, ACTH 8 am fasting sample.
