Suggest Remedy For Nausea And Aversion To Certain Types Of Food
Question: over the past year or more, I can't tolerate foods and spices I used to love. An example .. tonight my husband asked if I wanted teriyaki seasoning on our pork tenderloin. The thought of it made me feel nauseous. Instead we put a spice rub on the pork and grilled it. I had to cut off the outside and just eat the inside which had less flavor.
I can only eat things like fruit, potatoes, simple meats. I used to love shrimp but can't eat it anymore...
FYI, I've never tolerated green vegetables very well. I eat green beans, zucchini. I can only eat broccoli if I add it to rice or potatoes.
I do have gerd and acid reflux and have taken Prevacid for over 10 years.
I also take crestor, wellbutrin, Zoloft.
My gall bladder was removed few years ago.

Brief Answer:
intolerance added on by GERD UGI endo
Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Read and understood the problems of GERD, the medication you are taking.
Over the years you can't tolerate the food and spices you loved the most.
Your history says you never tolerated some foods. Now it is added on by spices.
This indicates that you have developed intolerance to certain foods and constituents.
It is possible that the GERD is increased.
I would advise the following in such a situation :
First of all stop all the food stuff that is causing the problem.
Upper GI Endoscopy to review the situation.
Adjust the medicines according to the findings.
Control of stress and /or anxiety if you have.
Small frequent feed of soft bland diet, now as a part of therapy.
Early dinner.
Avoid all foods and beverages that instigate or increase the problem.
Follow the instructions of your Gastroentrologist.
Hope this answer helps you, please feel free to ask for further relevant query or if you feel that there is a gap of communication.

Brief Answer:
Yes. it is possible.
Detailed Answer:

Have a great day.
