sorry about posting again but i dont know whats wrong!!

I know I posted earlier and thanks to Demiguise for your comment, but something still isnt right. I don't know what is wrong. I feel fine all the time, except when I eat. Right after I eat I feel like throwing up, but I never do. Earlier in the week I got diarrhea and almost threw up, but that was the most that ever happened. I don't know if it's something I ate, but if it was, why am I the only one in my family who is feeling sick. I get nauseas for about 10 minutes right after I eat and it goes away. The rest of the day I'm fine, acting perfectly healthy otherwise. I do feel full more often, even if I haden't eaten anything. Could food poisoning of some sort cause this? Could I be lactose intolerant? What? I'm not having fun eating anymore.

I have adhesions (scar tissue) from gallbladder surgery, pain pretty much 24/7 under my right rib, I'm seeing a pain management clinic for muscular/skeletal, I've had trigger point injections, physical therapy for abdominal muscle damage, cause and effect from the surgery.  I am a 49 yr old female, I had my gallbladder removed 9 yrs. ago, and with that I got IBS w/ severe diarrhea (pain and fatigue, alot of acid).   I take Questran (generic Cholestrymine) 1 tsp. w/ water at bed (One package can be to binding and constipate.),  It binds bile and stops my diarrhea.  If I don't take this at bedtime.  The next morning, no matter what I put in my mouth I will have diarrhea.  IAlso, try Protonix for acid.  I cannot eat gassy fruits or vegies, citrus or acidic foods, no fried or fatty foods, no dairy, no alcohol, caffiene, garlic, onions.  I eat low sugar, low fat meals - oatmeals, fiber one bars, fruit & nut bars, lean quisine meals, applesauce, activia yogurt. No real people food.
The Questran is a miracle for me.  I've just been put on Symax an antispasm med for your digestion. I also have dyspepsia (difficulty digesting). I live w/ pain everyday due to digestion and adhesions and it disrupts my life and family.  I hope some of my info can help you.
Good luck, I wish you all well.

Acid Reflux sounds like a real possibility.  You need to find out asap as your symptoms sound like advanced stages and it can
actually damage you esphoagus (sp).  Don't hesitate... Lainey

I would say it sounds like acid reflux. You probably want to see a doctor and if it is acid reflux you will take a pill every day and you will be fine.

I think it MIGHT be a dairy thing, I was eating tomato soup and used milk instead of water to make it creamy and I felt sick. I always have a little thing against dairy stuff. A long time ago I would eat grilled cheese sandwich and throw it up after. So I usually dont eat cheese at all. And we buy skim milk, but I never drink it. It might be because I eat very unhealthy, but my mom is into buying health food so then again I am eating healthy, but I'm not fat, very skinny. I'm just gonna hold off on the dairy stuff for a while then try something later and see if I get the same symptoms. I do get gassy, nauseas, almost throwing up and thats what madadivad said above if i was lactose intolerant. Thanks for all your help! You girls/guys are great with help on here!

If sis is completely over it, then it probably had something to
do w/ food except she may have a stronger tolerance & get
better faster. We're all different & also eat different. Food
poisoning , if severe, makes you want to heeve your guts & just
die over the bowl along w/ both ends at the same time. A mild
case would still be not poisoning you after this amt. of time.
Journal food for a few week. Track time nausea w/ diarrhea.
Ck. temperature for fever but (doubt you have). Lactose creates
a real bloat/gas feeling & you're miserable along w/ all those
near you. Try 2% instead of whole milk or best, none w/ no other
dairy products. Maybe it's an additive/preservative. I get hives
w/ red dye 40 (it's in everything) sm-amt OK. Red jello, I'm
broke out. Not sure what, but there are pills at naturalpathic
stores for treating the enzyme balance in stomache pre-eating.
Beano is sold OTC for controlling bloat problems. Chew smaller
portions well & follow w/ plain water. Soda's have additives.
Stick w/ slower eating/water/no dairy short time & incorporate
heavier foods slow. Fatty foods may be causing flare up. If
gone so quick, you may be having an acid problem that can be
helped w/ club soda & a slice of lemon for flavor or just
sparkling water. Gulping may cause too much air intake & cause
similar effects. Could you be pregnant? What happens after a
sm-snack? Stay hydrated & go to Dr if it keeps hanging on. You
may not be getting the nutrients from the food to stay healthy
& bounce back. Soda crackers help nausea. Dry/bland but helps.

Have you considered food allergies?  My mother feels deathly ill when she eats pineapple.  I feel very ill and have diahrea after eating Japanese or halepenos.  Purhaps what you are allergic to is just a more common food.  If you believe it is lactose intolerance, just stop eating or drinking dairy for a while and see if it helps.  If you still are having trouble and can't figure it out, maybe you should just see your doctor.
