Egg Allergy?

I have been suspecting an egg allergy for a while. Yesterday morning, I made scrambled eggs for myself and my toddlers. I haven't eaten plain eggs for a while. We went to the store shortly after we ate, and I couldn't make it through the trip w/out going to the bathroom. I was so embarrassed because the cleaning guy showed up just after I did, and he let me go in. Well, I took a few minutes while he waited outside. I know he was wondering what was taking so long. :o

Well, all day yesterday, I had mild diarrhea. Starting around 3am this morning, I have had BAD D and gas. And I keep burping and is smells like a rotten egg or something.

Does this sound like an egg allergy? I have eggs in other cooked products like bread, muffins, etc and I dont' get D. But I can't seem to eat them alone. Any ideas?

Thanks!

It sounds more like an intolerance to me. I'm the same way--I can not eat eggs plain, but do fine if there are one or two in a recipe.

I get nausea about 4 hours after--and I've had allergy skin-scratch testing, so I'm sure I'm not allergic.

I have a delayed allergy to eggs, fairly high number on the test and when I eat eggs I get sick to my stomach, dizzy, out of sorts and fumble around a lot. It's rather weird and disconcerting but still there.

Yes, it sounds like an intolerance to me. When I was younger I could eat eggs without problems. Then slowly, I developed more and more problems to them. First it was with eggs by themselves, then also with dishes with appreciable egg in them. Now I seem to react to every bit of egg.

The only time I had egg for 7 years was in baked products, and this was very occasional (like holidays). But Enterolab testing still showed me as reacting by creation of antibodies, even though I didn't notice a reaction in terms of symptoms.

I have an egg allergy. I can't eat even a speck of egg. Become very ill. Throwing up and coming out the other end as well. The first time I eat an egg, it seems to take about 16 hours for me to get sick. But if I am fool enough to eat an egg again the day after, I will get sick about 30 minutes later. This happened to me before I confirmed the allergy. I became so sick though that I vowed never to eat another egg after the 2nd such incident. The first time I passed it off as food poisoning. Wrong!

I have the same thing. I can't eat eggs straight but can eat things with some eggs in them, liked baked goods. I don't test positive to egg allergy. I get horrible stomach cramps and constipation that last for most of a day. Its more painful than gluten actually.

Iam very allergic to eggs (both yolk and whites). For me, I get horrible stomach pain/cramping and then I seriously can't move for the rest of the day!

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
