allergic to bananas?? I have IBS so stomach pains are nothing new to me. But about a month ago I thought I was having another flare up because I was feeling bloated, naseous, and had stomach cramps.

Last night after dinner I ate a banana and PB for dessert. About 2 hours later I really thought I was going to have to go to the ER. My stomach pain was unbearable. I had to vomit but that still didn't make the pain go away. I feel better this morning but my stomach is sore, I feel like I've done a hell of an ab workout.

Thinking about my 2 episodes last month and then last night, the common denominator is a banana. I googled it some and I saw that you can be allergic to bananas but I've never heard of anybody being so. But you can believe everything you read on the internet, right? :laugh:

    I get the same from bananas. Had them with my lunches for about a week, but was in pain an hour after lunch each day. Eventually worked it out.
