So, two weeks ago I started the SCDiet and everything is going smoothly. I'm basically just eating eggs, meats, certain fruits and drinking grape/apple cider. Tonight, I baked some chicken wings & some asparagus, both legal for the diet.

Before every meal I take about 5 betaine hcl capsules & before the first dinner only I take 2 probiotic's. I also take L-Glutamine & flax seed oil pills. Haven't had one single problem.

Tonight about 30 mins after dinner my head became extremely foggy and my nose became congested while running at the same time. I then thought I had a reaction, non-ibs, but just a regular food reaction to either the chicken or the asparagus. I then basically fell to my floor in absolute AGONY where I continuously prayed for it to go away for about a half hour!

I mean it was absolutely brutal! Then about 30 mins into that the pain started the slowly wear-off. I still couldn't stand up, no energy, & I was shivering for hours and I fell asleep on the floor. Finally I recently woke up & really need to know what could of happened.

Was the chicken bad? Was the asparagus bad? Am I all of a sudden allergic to asparagus? Did the betaine basically kill me?

Please someone help. Thank you!

Hey I had a similar incident last year. The few differences is that I had one explosive bout of diarrhea. And severe pain in my belly with itchy hot hands and feet. I am presuming that your pain was in your belly as well. I had an appointment with an immunoligist a few weeks later who told me that in her opinion I had an allergic reaction. But we don't know to what. All I was taking at the time was vit b and folic acid. I haven't had another one since and hopefully won't ever get another one. It was really scary !! Do you have any allergies. I would get it checked by a doctor to be sure. Hope you find some answers

Yes, thanks. I took an allergy test and nothing really stood out. I think the chicken was just bad is my guess. I feel somewhat better today. I actually have energy to walk unlike last night when I couldn't move!

Thanks for the reply!
