What Causes Abdominal Pain After Eating An Egg Sandwich?

As far as I can remember, Ive always enjoyed eggs for breakfast, regardless how they are cooked. I don't know what happened, but, One day, I had an egg sandwich and 15 minutes later, my stomach feels like it was in a vice grip, with every minute passing - the pain got stronger. I thought it was an isolated incident, but the next day - it happened again and again. I even thought of changing what kind of egg I ate (i.e. scrambled, omelette, etc). But it didn't work. I've tried eating egg beaters, but it happens just the same. I can eat other regular foods, but eggs. After 5 yrs now, I concluded that i'm allergic to eggs - which baffles me. Is there something else really going on in my stomach that i'm not aware of that would do this? I read that ulcers could cause these kinds of symptoms. What possibilities could cause this?

Hi.
Thanks for your query.

The most probable cause of pain in abdomen after eating an egg sandwich are : Now you have developed an intolerance to the egg-protein. Hence in spite of what type of egg preparation you eat you are going to have the pains and spasm .
These is nothing to be baffled about. May people get allergy to different types of proteins like for the fish and nuts.

No, ulcers do not cause such symptoms, please do not be under wrong impression.

The only treatment is not to have eggs in any form again..
