and 2 with colic.
Out of these 78 patients with nausea and retching, vomit and colic, the main Etiologies were:
- 60 patients (77%) drank too much water, with an average of 3.6 liters daily;
- 54 patients (69.2%) drank caffeine, as coffee, tea, mate or soft drinks daily.

- 11 patients (14%) drank medications that raise the fluid pressures;
- 6 patients (8%) drank wine;
- 5 patients (6%) presented visceral disturbances.
These 78 patients with nausea and retching, vomit and colic presented:
- 37 patients (47.4%) felt wide frontal migraines,
- 37 patients (47.4%) worsened at morning.
- 34 patients (43.6%) felt temporal or head-top (vertex) Migraines.
- 22 patients (28.2%) had tearfulness or rhinitis.
- 17 patients (27.4% out of the 62 women) worsened during the menstrual cycle;

On the examination of these 78 patients with nausea and retching, vomit and colic, we found:
- 36 patients (46.2%) presented mild Optic nerve’s borders edema;
- 27 patients (34.6%) presented evident Optic nerve’s borders edema (0.5 diopter height);
- 3 patients (3.8%) presented Optic Nerve’s damage suggestive of glaucoma, but with Cup/Disk ratio of
only 0.5;
- 9 patients (11.5%) presented suspicion of Glaucoma, including 8 from the above with mild Optic
Nerve’s borders edema;
- 10 patients (12.8%) presented incipient Glaucoma,
- 7 patients (9%) presented advanced Glaucoma.
All patients with nausea and retching, vomit or colic presented some of the above disturbances.
We conclude that Nausea and retching, vomit and colic in all patients were symptoms from
Ocular or Cerebrospinal Fluids Hypertension Syndromes, or from glaucoma.
