sick in stomach

hi ladies, hope everyone is getting a chance to catch some sun!! I have another question about something I have suffered from since I had fibro. I cant eat during the day and if I do its maybe half a cracker or a few pieces of salad. This has gone on for about 5 years now. I had salmonella and then fibro 6 months later. I had every test done minus the string in the stomach thing. Docts said they believe its ibs due to the fibro which I agree. The only time I can eat a meal is right before bed then I normally keep it down. Does anyone else suffer from this? I know its not meds because I tried no meds. Its frustrating trying to explain if im invited to church for lunch. I always end up throwing up and no im not bulimic or anything. I hate this as it effects me once again socially:/ As far as allergies it doesn't matter what I really eat...

Have you been to a gastro Dr. I don't believe that is all fibro.

I don't have that issue either. It's too darn easy to blame fibro for everything.

I'm not sure how old you are but have you been checked for endometriosis? My daughter would try to eat and then run from the table to throw up and she wasn't bulimic either. She also had pain in her abdomen. She went to her doctor and they couldn't find a cause. She went to the gastroenterologist, and had an upper GI done and was fine. He told her it was all in her head!

She came home after that appointment in a bucket of tears. She asked me what should she do. I told her we have tried all doctors but the gynecologist so we set up an appointment for her. Yep, he suspected endometriosis right away, checked her, and then did an out-patient procedure on her and now she is sooo much better. She remains on birth control pills to keep the endo under control. So this might be an avenue to take.

Wow rockon thank you very much!! Its quite disturbing that even if I eat an apple during the day the food feels heavy in my stomach. like something foreign. I don't throw up right away but within a half hour my body starts sending me signals that something isn't right. I am going to look into this. I weigh 132 atm and I am 5 4 but I will fall at time to 126 when it gets bad. I do eat healthy meals but it sure would be nice to sit down to supper or have a church lunch without excuses...
