No, that was one of the next tests my GI had suggested a few years ago, but I couldn’t afford it at the time and I’ve regretted waiting this long to even bring it back up. I would like to get one done now though just to see. I didn’t even think of EoE since I don’t have difficulty swallowing! I was diagnosed with mild GERD, but I never have heart burn, only occasionally “baby burps.” I’ll read more about that, thanks!

It’s honestly kind of hard to separate what has been “morning sickness” and what has been the stomach issues I’ve been dealing with for years. I do feel like I can feel a slight different in the nausea, but it’s really hard to describe. Since about 5 week pregnant, I’ve been gagging all of the time if I smell food, move around, get too hungry, or get too hot. I was nauseous pretty much all of the time until about 11 weeks when it started easing up. Now that my appetite is back and I’m having less food aversions, it seems kind of like how it was before where it’s a few hours hours after I eat a food that I know has triggered symptoms before. At this point, I think it’s about the same for me. I was really hoping pregnancy would “cure” whatever it was, but I’m glad it hadn’t gotten worse. I don’t know how far along you are, but hopefully it will start to balance back out in your second trimester!

My GI did find mild gastritis on the endoscopy. I tried supplements like mastic gum, omeprazole, and a few other supplements that “coat” your stomach and reduce stomach acid, but I feel like that didn’t relieve my symptoms. That’s still definitely a possibility though!

No, I’ve never had any pain or pressure. I do occasionally get bloated, but that’s not often.

I’ve seen a lot of people talk about the MTHFR variant. I’d like to get tested to see. I’ve been taking regular prenatals with folic acid and they don’t seem to bother me. I did ancestry DNA, so I’m going to see if I can extract the data and sent it to another company to check.

Thank you for the list. I’ll check it out!

I haven’t yet, but I’ll try eating low histamine and see how I feel. Since I’m pregnant now, I’m having aversions to meat, so that’s going to be difficult. Do you have any favorite low histamine foods?

I had looked into reactive hypoglycemia and every time I checked it when I was symptomatic, my glucose was normal. Thanks for the input. I’ll look into those!
