List what foods upset your stomach and what symptoms they cause


[Pu...]

Recommended Posts

Hi

 

Thought I’d see if there are any common foods that cause stomach problems and what symptoms they cause I know some of you lucky ones can eat anything , some things cause me different issues, chocolate causes cramps , spicy food causes cramps and diarrhoea, I can’t eat sweets or cakes . I tend to stick to as fresh food as possible organic when I can find it , mainly fruits veg and chicken. It’s amazing that I have no appetite for the foods I used to love, curry, crisps, biscuits, sauces , takeaways etc. I normally know if I eat something that doesn’t agree as my stomach starts gurgling and gets noisy ! 

 

I don’t drink alcohol , coffee , fizzy drinks and tend to stick to ginger tea, peppermint tea or just water.

 

How about you ?

Anything with sugar in it - lots and lots of gas. Chocolate - causes a wave, probably the caffeine. It's pretty horrible, because I crave sweets since I jumped. Thought maybe I had candida, but doesn't appear to be the case. Had it checked. So I take probiotics, even though they don't seem to be helping. Tried digestive enzymes, but they increase my sxs pain, and don't do much otherwise. I just have to avoid sweet things for a time.

Many things , mainly tomatoes and potatoes right now but enough salt will too . As well as my sugar free electrolyte drink I have to drink every hour 2oz or more because I cannot drink much at once - yes due to extreme bloating/pain/gas.

Yesterday I was ready to throw in the towel on this . 

I have horrible GI issues that I was born with . A nerve related motility disorder and inflammatory bowel disease  plus diverticulitis . Benzos were prescribed to me in the beginning for treatment of post gall bladder surgery nausea and pain . - thats how I got to this point - . So my GI symptoms are very VERY bad at this point . It and POTS .having POTS is very hard on your GI system also .
