Food Problems

Sounds like a food sensitivity. You can have them to any food, and to very specific foods (like one kind of meat and not another). I was having rashes, hives, joint pain, brain fog, slurred speech, vestibular difficulties, sound processing difficulties, stomach pain, irritability, bloating, you name it. I found a functional medicine clinic and cried and begged them to test me and sure enough I have 72 food sensitivities, as well as sensitivities to household molds, medicine, and functional foods that I had been using all the time.

Symptoms of food sensitivities, which are a different biological response than allergies, can be weird and vague and can seem unrelated to food because they aren't intestinal symptoms always.

I had many many months when my RSD was spreading and out of control where I was throwing up 7-8 times a day or more...but in my case it was just because of the intense pain, dizziness, nausea, etc. Once the pain stopped spreading and we got the pain more or less "under control" I was much better...though in really bad flare ups I will still experience this. Which is super fun because that makes the pain so much better...not. Hope you get some relief soon...let us know what the doctor says.

Forgot about gastroparesis. Worth looking at since it all started after the rest. I'm one of the lucky ones I guess that high pain doesn't make me sick like that. It just takes away my appetite but no more than that. I can't even imagine going through that. Will wish you lots of low pain days cause I hate feeling sick at all and glad to not have to deal with the feeling too much. Usually it's because of my period that I'll feel uber sick for a few days.

I'm no doctor, but it needs to be figured out!

Do you take medications with meals? As one is often to do. Because it might just be the medications in that case.

No meds with meals. I only did that back in the beginning to keep from feeling sick but don't need to anymore. Something I'll keep in mind though for down the road. Never know what might happen.
