Queen comfortable, or nauseous? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

queasy

'nauseous?' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'queen comfortable' is the wordplay.
'queen' becomes 'qu'.
'comfortable' becomes 'easy' ('easy' can be similar in meaning to 'comfortable').
'qu'+'easy'='QUEASY'

'or' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for queasy that I've seen before include "Tender" , "Feeling slightly sick, maybe with indigestion" , "Unsettled" , "One released from marriage" , "Feeling slightly sick, maybe at sea" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
