    Thumbs down Freaking out again

    Ok today I was fine until I went to subway. I told myself over and over no turkey bacon avocado sandwich. I got one anyway. I have trouble with eating bananas and avocados because about an hour after I eat them I get the mist horrendous stomachache until they digest which is very painful and long. The pain causes n*. So that's where I'm at right now stomach pain and n*. this sucks so bad. Just need to vent I'm freaked out right now not to mention I've had a headache for 2 days that doesnt help.

    Default Re: Freaking out again

    Well, seeing as you posted this yesterday, you're probably feeling a bit better by now (or at least I hope you are!)...but, if something like this happens again, you can always try some remedies like Tums tablets, Pepto Bismol, a hot water bottle compress, peppermint tea, ginger or cinnamon mints (like Altoids), ginger ale, or you could try eating something high in fiber afterward to help aid digestion (if you're too full, there's always powdered fiber that you can mix in with a glass of water).

    There are plenty of ways to soothe a queasy stomach, and a majority of them work at least 99.9% of the time! Just keep some remedies on hand and you'll be less likely to suffer a panic attack. Hope you're feeling better now.

    Wink Re: Freaking out again

    Yeah. Thanks I do feel much better today. I have a bad food intolerance to bananas and avocados. Kind of like an allergy to them only it's my stomach that reacts rather than my sinuses. I've avoided them for years so I thought I could handle the pain since it's been so long. But I was wrong I couldn't. I just don't know how to rid myself of the pain once it starts. And the pain makes me n*. I had a half of an avocado so the pain lasted about 6 hours if I eat more than the more pain I get and the longer I have it. I ate a banana last year and didn't think about it during the night I thought I was going to die I almost went to the ER but I remembered I ate the banana. But thank you. ;
