Problem:

I've always had an easily upset stomach.
But the last few months or so I can't keep anything down.
10-30 minutes after eating I'm throwing it back up.(sorry I know, yuck.)
Edit: I forgot, on the occasion I do keep it down... it's uhhh... diarrhea.

That's when I'm even hungry, my appetite is pretty much gone.

I wasn't much worried about it until a couple days ago when I realized how much bigger my pants are on me now. I weighed myself, and I've lost 15lbs from not being able to keep food down, I'm currently underweight.

No, I'm not pregnant.

What can cause this? Are there simple ways of increasing appetite, or at least being able to keep food down?

I don't know, but you better get to the hospital as soon as possible; that is just not normal!

And going on for months? If you don't have it corrected soon, it will be more than just weight you will lose, it can affect your hair, skin, teeth..you get the picture.

Not to scare you; but you should be concerned!

I really hope nothing serious is wrong. Please keep us posted?

Bluh... yea... I know I should. I just don't wanna go, I was hoping I could figure it out on my own... I guess I'll consider the doctors... sometime next week...

Thanks.

You can tell us, or not, certain things..

But you are an intelligent, and "beautiful" young woman! Make sure you stay that way, and get your a** in to get checked!

What you discribe above, is not a healthy diet at all! Nor the fact that you have hardly any appetite.

What about your family? Have they noticed, or said anything to you about your weight loss? - are you happy with it, when you look in the mirror?

I'll make sure to go get checked out.

uhmmm. Well, I don't see my family as much as I'd like, so they really have no clue at the moment. If they saw me I'm sure they'd say something. My Mom would probably tie me down and force feed me meat.

Nah, not happy with it, I look pretty ill as of late. Baggy eyes, hollow cheeks. mmm... tre-sexy

Yea, I'll go to the doctors Monday or Tuesday I s'pose.

I hope so! - and glad to hear you aren't happy with the weight loss; at least we know you aren't anorexic, which is really what I was worrying about for a minute there from the sounds of it.

Keep us posted what goes on at the doctors, okay?

I have celiac disease and that caused a lot of problems for me. I still get bad if I eat dairy or other foods my stomach can't handle.

I also have acid reflux and before meds, it always felt like I was going to vomit. I can't have high acids foods. I eat a lot of fruit because it's my diet but no oranges often or apples. It hurts too bad.

I hope you get the problem resolved. It sucks feeling that way all the time.




I need to learn when to shut my big boy mouth...

Celiac disease, what's that?

haha. Are you lactose intolerant? I am.

Wow. I didn't realize acid reflux could make you sick like that.

Apples have lots of acid? I had no idea! They seem so bland.

Celiac disease is basically when you are allergic to foods and it builds a toxin in your body causing things like stomach pain, upset, bloating, not being able to do #2. It has a lot of other symptoms.

Eating soy, dairy and gluten is toxic to me in the way it makes me soooo sick. I eat cheese and I get bad for days. I can't have pasta or bread either due to gluten.

My acid reflux causes nausea and such. Spices, acid etc makes it worse. I have to take meds as soon as I get up or I feel sick from it.
