Stomache problems....... really bad

[landser]

It may be the oatmeal...I was in extreme, and I do mean extreme pain the other day from eating oatmeal. I mixed it with water, and left it in my bag for a few hours, and then ate it. I could not even move an inch, or the pain would be excruciating to me.

It went away after about 4-5 hours...I was bloated and sharp stabbing pains were all over, they even extended all over my torso. I ate oatmeal the same way the next day, thinking it was just some weird expereince, and it happened again to me.

If your talking about bloating, extreme gassiness, and sharp, very intense stomach pains that make it impossible to perform the simplest of tasks, like even stand, this is what I had. Is this similar?

No I can stand but like right now I ate a steak.... (thats it) And I have extreme bloating and my stomache hurts I dont want to do anything cause of it. I also get these weird cravings for food. Like pizza and stuff I crave them horribly when this happens. I just crave food after I just ate !!!!

The fact is we DO change. If you have a GI injury or sensitivity because of some enviromental or internal factor, then things that were creamy are no longer. HEAL THY GUT, dude, do me a favor?

Post a thread on this forum right now, called TOMMBOY log: and list every single thing that enters your mouth, i mean every bonghit, every glass of water, piece of gum, grain of rice, EVERYTHING... do it. start right now and dont woos out and blow it off. You want help? I am willing to do this WITH you, just do it like you mean it.

EVERYTHING... lets see if between the bazillion of us we might find an obvious mistake or series of things you are doing.... just worth trying is all.


AND go see a GI doctor. I have a hunch, but i aint no sawbones, so i dont give medical advice, capiche?

If you do think it is IBS, eat slower, a lot slower, I had that problem for a while. It may take longer but you feel so much better. Put your spoon or fork down after every bite. Try it for one day, it worked for me.

Have to agree with this. I used to get terrible stomach aches and diarrhoea when I was younger, then when began eating slowly and added more fibre to my diet the problem seemed to go away.

However, Tommboy's problem seems a lot more complicated than this. It must have something to do with a reaction to some type of food he eats. Either that or he has increased his calories too quickly and his body is not used to it.

I first started getting these stomach problems about 2-3 months ago when I started my bulking diet. 3000-4000 cals. Its a gnawing stomache that stays with me almost every day!! I have seen a doc and gotten that test done where you drink some chalky stuff and they x ray you. I also have gotten blood work done. I think it might be IBS, but I am off the diet eating regular food and I still get the bad stomache aches. It was so bad recently I lost 7 pounds because I was too scared to eat. My doc doesnt know what it is and it is really starting to effect my bodybuilding. I get severe bloating with it also ( sometimes look like im pregnant) Its hard to speculate that I have IBS since I dont really get any constipation or diaarihia ( i just feel like im sick or somethin all day. Any of you guys ever had anything like this have any guesses to what it is or advice. Im running out of ideas......

Severe constipation maybe?

Medication?

Dairy?

Intestinal parasites---gross but very possible. Google it!

Man, I had something similar and it was my gall bladder. I got to where I couldn't eat anything but baked chicken and plain brown rice. It sucked. They removed my gall bladder and I'm fine now. I still can't eat much dairy though.

 

[tommboy]

Are you serious about your gall bladder???? What tests did you do to find this out???

Yeah, I'm serious. Funny thing is, the tests showed that it worked well, almost too well. But, considering I had all the symptoms, they took it out anyways. Apperently, I wasn't responsive to the tests. I've been feeling fine since. But that's just me. Go get checked out by a doc. Try to narrrow down foods to see what bothers you. For me, anything really fatty would bother me REALLY bad. If I would eat something really fatty, I would vomit, or come really close.

my quick thoughts...
could be a microbial problem. are the untensils, cups , plates you use clean and sanitary? when you eat oats etc. are they adequaetly cooked? I ask becasue i have had the same problems and usually from fruits, veges, wet oats etc. these foods are excellent for microbial growth, and they are restriceted when someone is immunocompromised becasue of the potential of infection. i would check these few areas. like the chef said, reduce your food intake to a couple safe things to find out the cause, this is the only way to pinpoint it!!! then slowly add foods
