Fish Allergy?

rain

Recommended Posts

Over this past week rotisserie chicken and fish have given me stomach aches. The ache is manageable but coupled with bloating and constipation. Plus I get that still hungry feeling that leads to the perpetual snacking. It seems to last about 8 hours.

Is this another food intolerance? I don't think it's a proper allergy because just a few weeks ago these same foods were clearly my 'safe' foods. Or is it something about how I'm eating them? Has anyone else gone thru this?

Another thought I had was that it was too many calories at one sitting (about 600 - 200 for fish, 300 for rice and vegetables and I always tack on an extra 100 for oil, etc).

Thanks for your thoughts!

If you got your chicken already cooked at the grocery it may have wheat in it. Kroger's cooked chicken in the deli has wheat. I have only found cooked chicken with seasonings at Safeway and Costco. If your fish was seasoned or if you bought it in a bag there might be wheat in the seasoning or floured to keep it from sticking together. It's everywhere and I am so over it. Just got home from the grocery and a single trip takes me at least an hour because of reading the labels. I also have an intolerance to soy so I and I still have lactose intolerance so I really have to read the labels for everything. I love it when they say gluten, soy and dairy free right on the package. Makes life easier.

I agree.

Rotisserie chicken was my "go to" food the first few weeks I was recovering but I realized after a couple of chickens...it must not be safe.

I just forget about fast food.

A raw chicken goes in the oven and is done in an hour.

That is our fast food now.

Another thing might be if they use vegetable oil on the chicken...it is usually soy.

You might be sensitive to soy.

I wouldn't think the calories would make your stomach hurt.

I agree--it's probably not the chicken or fish--it's the PREPARATION.

I cannot do soy either. I emailed the supermarkets we get ours from and both registered nutritionists on staff PROMISED me that no soy or gluten was used in the preparation of the rotisserie chickens or turkeys...but now, you have me wondering....because I sure as heck am not feeling any better....!!

arrgh...there goes another food ...LOL (but not really funny).... can I swear? good..(*&^$#! :D

I like the idea about soy in the rotisserie. The fish I prepared at home but I've been cooking it from frozen (per the instruction) rather than thawing..maybe that's it?

I have noticed though, that this week I can eat lentil and other bean varieties with no problem. And that had been a big problem before, I hadn't been able to digest it. So I think I'm going to chalk this up to another phase in my digestion healing. I guess I just wait a bit and see if the meat is a problem then.

Thanks!

Good for you that you are adding foods back in that were a problem before!

I am still in the "what now?" phase of healing where I cannot tell from day to day what will make me feel lousy.

So, hooray for you---eat up, girl, and enjoy!! (oops. I shouldn't assume that)...eat up, rain!:>)

      I cannot tolerate it at all - triggers burning and nausea, ditto aspirin.  Here in the UK I take Paracetamol.

      For back pain, I take a combination of Cobalamine B12, Pyridoxine B 6, and Thiamine B 1 (in the form Benfotiamine), which have an analgesic effect.  These three B vitamins together work way better than those over the counter pain relievers.  Theses are water soluble B vitamins that are easily excreted via the kidneys if not needed.  Thiamine will also help the nausea.

      @stephaniekl, welcome to the forum, Is your daughter taking any nutritional supplements?   Weight loss and failure to thrive are two symptoms of thiamine insufficiency.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms are not recognized as such by doctors.   I experienced similar symptoms when I became malnourished.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms can become worse quickly, and can affect one emotionally and mentally.  Although blood tests for thiamine aren't accurate, do have your daughter checked for nutritional deficiencies.  Thiamine B 1 works with the other B vitamins and magnesium.  Thiamine and Niacin B 3 help improve Gerd.  All the B vitamins are frequently low due to malabsorption.  Vitamin D will help calm the immune system.  Thiamine helps the immune system fight off viruses like those tick borne illnesses.   Thiamine Mononitrate, which is in many vitamin supplements, is not bioavailable.  I was taking a multivitamin containing thiamine mononitrate and still became deficient in thiamine. Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing.  A form called TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) is also excellent for correcting thiamine deficiency.  A combination of Thiamine, Cobalamine B12, and Pyridoxine B 6 has analgesic properties.  I take it for back pain.   Keep us posted on your progress!

      Has prednisone or some other systemic steroid been tried that might quiet her immune system down for a while? I have two acquaintances with Lyme's disease. It is a wicked condition that has long fingers.

      We have.  She is so limited as to what she can eat.  She has a nutritionist, but they are even at a loss.  Right now, her pain is so significant that she can only eat 5-10 bites a meal.   We just got some labs back today and she is hypoglycemia, anemic and her immune system is shot.  She also is positive for 3 tickborne illnesses.  Thanks for your help!
