Since my freshman year of high school, I have had a problem with the food I ate. Anything I eat, with-in at least an hour of eating it, makes me sick. I begin to feel nausea, abdominal pain (almost like menstrual cramps, but no where near my period), I feel extremely hot but y skin is cold, I have diarrhea and in some cases I even vomit. None of this is in anyway shape or form intentional. My parents sent me to the Dr. to see what was wrong. He told me nothing and that I should try an over-the-counter Anti-Diarrheal drug. I did this every time it bothered me for a year; and at the end of it found myself in the hospital. They told me I was F.O.S. Full of Stool, gave me an enema and sent me home. I was then told to try cutting out dairy and taking lactose pills, this is not helping. It is a rather embarrassing problem and I need some help
This reply is a little late. You probably have Celiac Disease - or at least an intolerance to gluten. It is in so much food that it is impossible to pinpoint it as the cause (i.e. it just seems like all food makes you sick) unless you cut it out of your diet completely. Then you won't believe the difference it makes to your health.
