For the last few weeks I have had almost no appetite and get queasy a lot. I just started birth control pills 3 months ago, and just recently switched pills this last week...could I just be getting used to the pill? Even though I started 3 months ago? I know I'm not pregnant, after 3 negative pregnancy tests and an on time period...plus no other symptoms...
Or could it just be my weirded out sleep (or lack of) lately? Stress? I'm worried that the pill is messing me up.

Yes, I am on my second week of the pill and it has made me queasy here and there. I also have to try harder to get to sleep, but I stay asleep and wake up bright. I am on Yaz and love it so far.

If you feel sick after taking your pill, then you should switch to taking it at night after your next placebo week. If you get nauseated from it, that's one of the best ways to not feel the nausea, necessarily, because you should technically be asleep before the nausea kicks in.
But the bottom line is that nausea is not uncommon among first time pill users. If you've only been on for a short time, then it can totally happen and it's not an indicator of anything bad. However, if it continues, you may want to switch to a different pill or quit taking fake hormones all together, like I did. I couldn't be happier because the pill sucks.
