Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you are having symptoms of severe nausea and vomiting during 17 weeks of pregnancy . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like gastroenteritis , food poisoning , irritable bowel syndrome , lactose intolerance or intestinal ileus. The symptoms are very common in pregnancy . I would suggest you to consult gynecologist for proper examination , who may further refer you to gastroenterologist . Doctor may order stool test , ultrasound , endoscopy along with that take history . Doctor may prescribe laxative , anti emetic drug , ornidazole or albendazole along with ranitidine .You should eat light and non spicy , avoid food like sea food and nuts , take antacid after every meal and keep your head elevated while lying down. Drink green tea twice a day and take probiotics food like yogurt.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
