I've had reactions to any fruit I've eaten so far, I only developed the allergy a couple years ago. Do you feel worse before you feel better? I've been nauseous for the past 2 days. (started diet 4 days ago)

Hi all,

I have just started a 2 week gluten-free diet per my doctor. I have LONG struggled with my different symtoms. I have always struggled with a nervous, quesy stomach. Constantly having stomach aches. Difficulties with going to the bathroom, mainly diaheria. (may have IBS). My stomach has always made lots of noise, gurgling and mouning. I have have a lot of gas, although I can't burp. I have thought that it was Acid Refulx and was on Prilosec for 9 months that didn't really help. I just recently decided that enough was enough. There had to be a reason for my stomach problem, not just that this is the way my body is. My doctor recommending seeing if I have Celiac and put me on a gluten-free diet for 2 weeks. Here's way it gets a little tricky. I am also Lactose Intoreant, although I can handle some dairy. I am also allergic to fresh fruit, with I LOVE. I live in a house with 3 other adults and 2 kids. So it's been a bit tricky trying to get meals together. I don't want them to have to suffer with my diet as well.

At first I thought, "Oh this will be easy, just don't eat bead or pasta". But it is a lot tougher than I thought. I'm a huge fast food junkie. I tend to eat out 4-5 times a week. Taco Bell is my favorite. I'm 26 and 108lbs. I've always been thin and lately have been fatigued and have a loss of energy. Since being on the diet I have noticed my stomach has been much quieter. I'm really starting to feel like this may be my problem. And I'm releived to be able to find so many others with the same issues as me.

Does anyone else have the same type of allergies that I do? And if so, what alternatives do I have for fresh fruit?
