Posted: 12/21/07 - 01:09 Post subject: Help! I feel sick after eating ANYTHING! I'm so sick of this |
|
|
Wow, where do I start. Well for starters I'm a 15 year old male that's been feeling bad for 3+ years. My problem is when I eat anything this triggers a ton of unexplainable symptoms which are:
-Fatigue*
-Ache all over
-Stomach aches
-Heartburn
-Constipation*
-Shortness of Breath
-Anxiety*
-Poor memory*
-Terrible concentration*
-Abdominal cramping*
I put a * next to the one's that are the worth and they are pretty constant. The fatigue I feel is like my whole body is drained of energy even after eating well and a goods nights rest. The anxiety seem to come soon after eating an can last for 30 minutes to 3 hours. I think the others are self explanatory.
I've pretty much been to every doctor on the planet I'll try to list them. I've been to first of course a pediatrician and family practice doctor 10+ times throughout the 3 or so years. I was allergy tested, had my lung capacity tested (at the beginning of the period I would complain about breathing a lot. In the past year or so I went to see a neurologist, he said everything was fine. Then I saw a gastroenterologist and they had me looked at from both ends. The only thing they found out was that I was lactose intolerant.
I've had multiple blood test done and have been tested for everything from Lyme to diabetes.
I been to an "alternative medicine" doctor, at least that's what I think it's called and I tested negative for Candida overgrowth. A few months before this occurred I had tried the Candida diet for a month. I felt better mentally ,but almost worse physically. What this doctor did find from a stool test was that I'm gluten intolerant and have a bacterial imbalance in my large intestine. That's all I know really.
I've been to a counselor and took an physiological exam. It ended up saying I score high for depression ,but also it could be a physical problem. After that I was put on Zoloft, right now I'm up to 100mg and also 150mg of Welbutrin. I've been taking these for about 3 months and haven't noticed any effect. I think there definitely was a time that I was depressed ,but I am well past that now and I deeply feel that is not the root cause. However I am still very open to solutions.
Today I went to a psychiatrist and he said that I wasn't depressed and I wasn't over obsessing, or worry about my health so it's really looking to me like it's physical. I think he gave me something for anxiety ,but we still need to get that filled.
I may be missing one or two ,but If I remember I'll fill you guys in.
For about a week and a half now I've been on the Wholesome Medley diet program. At the very bottom of this page it cover what it consist of. What it is basically is eating the core foods: fish, eggs, vegetables, fruit, brown rice, poultry and lean meat. I'm also making three shakes daily that consist of fruit, water, and a supplement powder. Along with these I have to take 10 supplements pills each time. Seven Gastro-Fiber and three SP Cleanse.
So I've been following this diet religiously for the past week and a half with no noticeable improvements. It is a three week diet ,but I'm thinking about maybe doubling it if I still don't feel better. I really wanting to get back to school and not sit at home for months on end o if anyone has a clue about how to sort ANY of this help feel free to help.
Thanks for your time! |

Maybe I gave too much information...
To try to sum it up when I eat ANYTHING it makes me sick. So I basically always feel bad.
Anyone feedback would be great! |

Posted: 08/12/08 - 19:59 Post subject: Physical approach may not be deep enough |
|
|
| Its ousnd like you've covered all the physical and mental components, it also sounds like no one has given you the basics of how a human ticks; I mean body, mind soul & spirit, the latter being the deepest. Considering nothing of a physical nature has worked I would suggest going deeper, and the deepest part of a human is their spiritual core. As we are well aware this could mean anything, yoga, buddism, christianity etc. etc. Spirituality is a personal thing, you have to choose what works for you, at your age there is an advantage, you can often tell when someone is feeding you s..t! Spirituality is NOT about others telling you how to live your life, its about living an abundant life from the inside out and most of all being at peace with yourself. For starters have you or do you believe in God? This is a good place to start, it could be a simple as saying (in your own private time) 'God, if you truly are real, I need a break, I need a light at the end of the tunnel, can you please help me, please make yourself real to me?' If you are sincere in seeking Him He will not forsake you. Alternatively the most peaceful people I have met are Buddhists, however to get the most out of their beliefs you need to spend at least 3-6 months in a monastery, not the most accomodating for todays Western civilisation. email me if I can help any further chris@globalresource.com.au |

Posted: 08/21/08 - 09:50 Post subject: Feel sick after I eat too |
|

I came here looking for answers myself. I feel absolutly horrible after I eat. I am so frustrated. I'm 32 and Ive been going through this since I was about 17 or so. I'd almost rather never eat again than feel this way several times a day.
Has anybody got any ideas or solutions??
Doctors dont seem to help, Ive seen many. |

| I'm a 23 year old male. I've had this problem since I was small due to anxiety at school, and being forced to eat when I wasn't hungry. For me it would come and go in phases, depending on my current situation. Recently it has come back and I find myself unable to eat very much due to feeling so sick afterwards. I also have a fear of throwing up which makes matters even worse. I can eat a bit of pasta, or fruit or very bland things, but if it has anything bulky in it eg. meat, cheese... I feel sick afterwards. I smoke a hell of a lot during these phases which is doing my health no good, and I am gradually starting to lose weight (I'm already a small guy). I am not intolerant to dairy products seeing as I have milk in my tea (which I am ok with sometimes, but not at other times). Having said that over the years I have had the same feeling with caffeine. I am aware it might be acid reflux but why would it come and go? It is frustrating because no matter how much I tell myself I am absolutely fine, I still feel bad. |

Posted: 11/05/08 - 06:02 Post subject: Feel Sick every day. scared to be sick |
|
|
| Ive had this for the past year or so. Whenever i eat, straight aftewards, i feel so sick, throw up sick, but i never am. It goes on for ages, and its much worse at night. I suffer with panic attacks and apparently anxiety, although i dont think that it is anxiety, but my doctors do. I am just about to have councelling because all of my blood results are negative, and i have nothing wrong with me apart from IBS. I dont want to eat anymore, because i am so scared of being sick, it absolutly petrifies me. I cant cope anymore because it just makes me feel so terrible. I just dont know what it is, and my doctors seem to think its all in my head. |
