What Causes Trouble In Laying On The Back For A 44-year-old Female?
Hi. I have never been able to lay on my back without it making me feel really sick. It s not acid reflux. As soon as I roll over onto my side it slowly goes away. I am 44 (female) and have had this forever. If I roll onto my back during the night the nausea will actually wake me up! Thank you, Melinda.

Hello,
It seems related to vertebral spine compression while laying on your back.
To me, you should consult with an orthopedic specialist to check this out and to help with the strengthening of the spinal muscles.
Meanwhile, take a magnesium supplement until you see your orthopedic specialist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
