Hope you feel better soon!

Can't believe I read this - it's like you have described our household for the last couple years. me and my wife seem to have gotten this every couple months for about 2 years now. I thought it was our water, got it tested and nothing. Ange thought it was the proteins, but it makes no sense to me. Did you also get the sulfer smell burps? Last time we had this was about a month or so ago. Lasted 2 days. Here's hoping its just part of being parents to 2 kids starting school and pre-school.Quote:

And not like - oh I ate too much, I feel bad.... It's like you say, in bed all day pissing out of your ass. I would guess food poisoning if it was just a 1 off occasion, but the frequency is just weird.
Wow sorry to hear that. It sounds more like a short duration of the 'gastro of hell' I had in past, an intestinal allergic reaction. When it was happening (I had maybe 40 of those episode in my life) I had those horrible burbs, it was more like literally burping a sh!t odor mixed with super rotten eggs, an odor 10x worse then the worse fart you ever smelled, the worst odor by far I smelled in my life (it's even more horrible because it come from the mouth), it make you want to barf every time, those burps happens multiple time an hour and it seemed to come from MUCH more deeper then an ordinary burp, but this occurred only with the 'gastro' from hell, the last one is when I barfed sh!t though my mouth and passed out of pain, the spams for barfing something so deep was so violent, I remember before passing out, that I was afraid my ribs would crack, it's like if Hulk was squeezing me.
I saw some Doctors and saw an gastroenterologist, but no one was able to tell me the origin, I had to find out myself, my first reaction was from eating nuts from Brazil, so it was easy to point it out since I was not eating that often, then later on I had to add walnuts to the list, then almond and where it became tricky if was for peanut butter, like a few months-a year later when I became allergic to it, I was eating PB pretty much everyday since I was a kid, so it was in my 'safe food list', and the problem is that is was not triggering the 'gastro from hell' at every time, I could eat some everyday for sometimes and I was fine, and then BOOOM it's time to ask forgiveness for all your sins. It took some time to figure it out.
And one more thing I became allergic, is pork, this one was also hard to figure and this one was even more restrictive, because for example, if I went to the restaurant for breakfast and ordered safely some pancakes, but those had touched some of the bacon's fat from another breakfast, then boom welcome to sh!ting my life city. To be mentioned, I've stayed away from pork many years. And one day, many years later I've had a steak of pork by mistake thinking it was beef and did not get sick and fearfully I tried some pork a few days later and was okay (today I can eat pork without a problem), so I thought I was healed from this allergies, out of faith I decided to re-try PB, a little bit was ok, the next day one toast it was ok, but after 4 days (still one toast), BOOOM, welcome to repentance. And the last time I was sick (when I barfed sh!t) it was from eating ONE spoon of Rolo PB ice cream, thinking it was regular Rolo ice cream, the container look pretty much the same.
If you had it for 2 days only it's great, me the shortest was 3-4 days of hell, but it could last 1-2 weeks, at the worst I sh!ted water, about a cup every 20 min 24/24hr, I could not go to sleep, immodium saved my life many time from dehydration, 25-30lbs is really serious in a such a short time, but I could not take it too early, because the cause of allergy needed to be out before I put a plug on it, if I closed the door too fast, the allergen was still inside, a big no-no.
^This had nothing to do with a cheat meal, neither this new reaction I had since a year and a half, I just got them a day before the cheat meal. I try to see if it comes from the food and I can't figure it out, it seems like a virus that is waking-up here and there. Sh!tting water is not the worse in this case, no awful burp, but extreme abdominal pain, beyond any measure, pain that irradiate every where, but particularly in the legs/knees, they hurt so much, much more then when you have the flu, it comes with heavy fever symptoms, that make me shake like a earthquake, when I am in extreme pain I breath so fast, faster then someone with a panic attack, I need air like when I do some free-diving and goes for a depth PR and come back to the surface my lungs scream for air, I breath so hard, so fast and it's ultra loud, so fast that I would normally begin to hyper-ventilate in less then 20sec, but now I can breathe like that for long period like 30 min without hyper-ventilating, and I really NEED to breathe like that, if not I think I would loose conscience, I need air like if I was sprinting uphill for 30 min straight. Once again it's violent beyond any measure, I came close to trow myself from the 19th floor where I live, what kept me is thinking of the love for my son (we are carrots and peas) and wife, that would hurt them so much. (At least now I know that dilaudid can take away the pain). Also even when the pain is gone, I still wake-up in a puddle of water every morning for a while from sweating. Like if my system had to evacuate something.
I really don't know what cause this, I eat pretty much all the same things and can be good for months, then BOOOM welcome to 'hate your life' unadvertised. I dunno if it's something like PB in the past, that my body can tolerate for a while, but has a limit.
Hope it helps.

an odor 10x worse then the worse fart you ever smelled, the worst odor by far I smelled in my life (it's even more horrible because it come from the mouth), it make you want to barf".............You've, obviously, never smelled my wife's farts!! Just kidding, hope you don't have to go through that again.
Holy god! Jesus man, sounds like it's a miracle for you to be writing this!! I'd be getting this checked out right away! Sounds like something really, really serious, especially if you're getting these symptoms every 3 months! Your drop in BP is disturbing... Get and LP at the very least! I hope you get better soon! Stay strong!Quote:

Thanks Primal, what do you mean by LP ?
Since I took the injection of Dilaudid, most of the pain went away, I'm just very weak and not well. Normally I could be better in a day or 2, but it usually take 2-3 weeks to get my strength restored at the gym.

Ours likely not allergies since they do tend to occur at the same time or close to each other -so its a virus or bug of some sort. The sulfur burps is literally 10x the odor of anyone's farts for sure. I'll agree with you there! And trust me, we can fart with the best of 'em in this house! I just asked if it occurs at same time as cheat, not because I think its cheat related, but that its like our body can only handle so much at once and add to it, and it reaches that threshold of no return. Last time we both had it at once, I only had it minor, and my wife major - but it coincided with a big cheat for her, and just normal day for me.
Knock on wood though, we've been good for a while now! Hope you get well soon. Sounds like you're enduring something way worse than what we had, and I literally feel as though it might be my last day on earth when it happens.
Just a theory, but the link between the cheat day might be because a huge meal and lots of sugar/gluten/crap might load the immune system too much and the virus or whatever it is dormant take advantage of the situation to re-surface.

Steve, do you have also fever and pain everywhere in your body like a flu ?
