Tummy Issues

Try going for an allergy test. Or slowly take different foods out of your diet because it could be an intolerance. I'm lactose intolerant and thats how I feel when I have dairy.

Are you eating sufficient calories each day? My first hunch is that you are not, based on the symptoms alone. Have you seen a regular doctor for a checkup recently?

you may be allergic to nuts or dairy! soy, even... keep removing things from your diet & reintroducing them, and see if you feel better or worse.

OK I have a weird suggestion....do you take vitamins? I can't take regular vitamins, they make me feel horrid about 5 mins after I take them. I have to eat gummy ones. Strange, I know.

Without knowing any other info, I would say you're not eating enough and/or not getting a balanced diet. I dealt with similar symptoms every time I would try to diet because I thought I had to starve myself to lose weight. Once it set in, I would still feel ill even after I ate and most of the time it was hard to eat feeling that sick anyways.

Now that I track my calories, don't skip meals, and balance my macros, I rarely get that sick feeling. Occasionally I have to skip a meal (stuff happens) and I end up feeling sick but I recognize it and try to get something in me as soon as possible. Carbs are great to immediately make me feel better but protein and fats keep me from crashing again. This is just my experience, I would say talk to a doctor and get a second opinion if your doctor is not helping.

Hi. I am not a doctor and it's not a one case scenario, so you will have to do a little exploring. But it may be a matter of choosing the right foods. But outside of that, years ago, I went through a time where I was close to passing out on a regular basis. (It would come on me all of a sudden, and I knew if I didn't sit down, I was going to faint, which was quite inconvenient because it happened at work a lot, on a job I had to be on my feet.) Then I found out I was borderline hypoglycemic. I confess I wasn't conscious about what food I was eating, at the time, just that I ate food. The doctors, based on testing, said I needed to treat myself as someone with hypoglycemia, (and also, if I didn't, it would potentially get worse) This means making sure you eat multiple small meals or good healthy snacks (make sure you get enough protein), or it would leave me feeling sick/ faint all of a sudden. A candy bar for a snack would next to drop me once it kicked in. Just a thought... But definitely you need to be looking at what you are eating and maybe see a dietician?

For example, take common allergins or intolerances out. Ex. Remove eggs for 2 weeks and note how you feel. Then slowly introduce it back in. Do that one at a time with foods you think may be causing it. Also eat normally for a day and keep a journal of how you feel on a hourly basis to pinpoint what you should cancel out first.

I'm not sure how to do this because I live mainly on carbs (breads and pasta) so there's not a whole lot of variety...

Maybe it's scurvy or something. You should probably start consuming vegetables, meats, and fruits as well. Carbs alone are not enough.

It could be any number of nutrient deficiencies (iron, B12, vitamin D, etc)
