Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
No, I don't think this nauseated feeling and dog bite are related.
You are might be having mild gastritis which is causing nausea.
So take antacid (pantoprazole) on empty stomach twice daily.
Don't worry, you will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
