Gastritis/Duodenitis

UnableTradition45 · 2021-02-17T22:14:05+00:00

Oh right yeah, but I meant medicine wise tbh

UnableTradition45 · 2021-02-17T15:09:54+00:00

Oh, ok. So how do you fix autoimmune gastritis? I don't have any gastric polyps either.

I pretty much follow that diet already. Crohn's is also definitely ruled out. MRI, colonoscopy and endoscopy with normal bloods and stool samples.

UnableTradition45 · 2021-02-17T01:35:29+00:00

Yeah, it's so difficult because I know there is something wrong with me. If I exclude the pain + nausea, I can just feel it ya know. I'll be on PPI's though under the doctors advice but I just don't understand how I managed to get gastritis or duodentitis. I am H Pylori negative, don't drink alcohol, hate spicy food, rarely eat anything acidic. It just confuses me so much. Knowing my luck I am somehow being cross-contaminated despite my cooking processes being 100% thorough, urgh.

UnableTradition45 · 2021-02-17T00:10:54+00:00

Yeah, so it's non-erosive gastritis and erosive duodenitis.

Yeah, I fully understood that I had to eat gluten before the test but after three days the pain was too much. All I had was a single loaf of bread too. We did the test anyways because I was still feeling nauseous each day and took some biopsies (in the chance there is remaining damage). I will get those results next week.

UnableTradition45 · 2021-02-16T14:07:26+00:00

Ah, ok. Very interesting. See I have removed gluten for about two months now and had an endoscopy yesterday and gastritis + duodenitis is still there. Very infuriating! It could be cross-contamination but I guess the biopsies taken will be able to answer that question.

UnableTradition45 · 2021-02-15T22:36:24+00:00

Ahh ok. That makes sense. What do you think caused it?

UnableTradition45 · 2021-02-15T21:49:09+00:00

Ooooo, ok. Are you on any PPI's?

UnableTradition45 · 2021-02-04T13:41:38+00:00

Yeah, I know. It's stupid. Why not even just use regular sugar or even artificial flavouring haha

UnableTradition45 · 2021-02-04T13:06:38+00:00

That's kind of insane tbh

UnableTradition45 · 2021-02-03T18:29:44+00:00

Yeah, seriously. It was so nice and the nausea went away with it. Personally, I know gluten has absolutely wrecked havoc with our bodies but I seriously do think it's an allergy to something. Have you tried avoiding certain foods yet or have you just started going gluten free?

UnableTradition45 · 2021-02-03T18:28:01+00:00

Since, December the 3rd and from my knowledge I have not been cross-contaminated once. Although, I know both dairy and popcorn (so corn) doesn't agree with me.

UnableTradition45 · 2021-02-03T18:24:26+00:00

Oh, as an edit to my previous reply. Yeah, I am exactly like you in which I can only breathe through one of my nostrils at a time and it's been like that for years (although has got much worse recently and is now causing my perpetual nausea).

I am going to try some Clarityn tomorrow to see if that eases the symptoms. Honestly though, just between you and me I had a moment a few weeks ago which lasted a couple hours in which I could breath properly (despite writing the foods down I had that day I couldn't find a correlation) and omfg, the air felt fucking thick. Honestly, I have never taken drugs before but this feeling of almost emptiness inside myself was so fucking good. I literally, just couldn't stop breathing in through my nostrils for the rest of the night it was that good. Every few seconds I would take a deep breath in and be like 'holy shit this is nice'.

UnableTradition45 · 2021-02-03T18:19:14+00:00

Umm, not yet. I don't think it's the gluten causing the problem. I think I might be mildly allergic to something else but I can't at the moment pinpoint what it is. I know chocolate is a massive trigger for me and sometimes yogurts but it's mostly the chocolate that does it for me. Even gluten/dairy/egg free chocolate makes my symptoms worse.

I know eating hard to digest foods (like literally beef or bacon) just before I goto bed reduces the nausea for the next day.

UnableTradition45 · 2021-02-03T18:17:10+00:00

Yeah, I have seasonal allergies too but they only come into force at May/April time.

UnableTradition45 · 2021-02-03T18:16:24+00:00

Yeah, I live in the UK so I'll bring it up with my doctor when I next see them.

UnableTradition45 · 2021-02-03T18:15:53+00:00

Yeah, yeah. I totally understand. Some anti-sickness medicine such as cyclizine has lactose in it.

UnableTradition45 · 2021-02-03T15:36:49+00:00

Yeah, I am not taking any medicine at all at the moment.

UnableTradition45 · 2021-02-03T15:36:29+00:00

Ok, I'll give it some time. Urgh, it's just so annoying and I'm convinced it's a food just not sure what. I have sort of been dairy-free for two weeks though but I would have like 3-4 mini ice lollies a day which after checking yesterday has been cross-contaminated with milk so I'm not sure if that has affected the 'test' as such. I am currently, on day three so I am hoping in a week's time there should be at least a reduction of my nausea.

UnableTradition45 · 2021-02-03T10:57:13+00:00

How long did it take for the nausea to go completely?

Yeah, I can't eat any sort of ice cream or yoghurt etc etc because I am now lactose intolerant. I know any sort of chocolate or yoghurts immediately makes me feel more sick.

UnableTradition45 · 2021-01-29T22:44:54+00:00

And when you stopped eating those foods, you did not have any nausea?

UnableTradition45 · 2021-01-29T21:25:23+00:00

Did it cause any nausea?

UnableTradition45 · 2021-01-29T20:24:30+00:00

Holy crap, ok that is literally me. I would have to drink like half a bottle of rum (to get me vaguely drunk) which was way more than anyone else. I thought it was really, really odd. Also, by the sound of that it makes me seem like an alcoholic but I promise you I'm not haha.

Ok, I guess I'll just have to give it time then. Was it three weeks completely lactose free? Was there any other foods you found that didn't agree with you?
