I think the vomiting might be a combination of food sensitivities causing problems and allergies. I ate nothing but meat and cheese for a few days (as I know I don’t react to these) and felt much better, but then I tried to stop taking my allergy medications and I started throwing up again.

I’ve lost 80 pounds before doing elimination, then 60 the last time (if I go back to SAD, I gain weight again).

Today I took Mucinex and Flonase and Xyzal, and haven’t thrown up yet. But there’s definitely some sort of food that I’m eating that exacerbates whatever is already happening. Thanks for the advice.



I had horrible sinus headaches and post nasal drip. It bothered me so much when a doctor would prescribe me flonase, just treating the symptom. It was all food, try chicken and rice. I live off meat and dairy now, but dairy can give people mucus so I'd cut it out initially. Also with the meat, avoid deli meats and bacon in the initial tests as they have sodium nitrite, turned out to be a trigger for me. Gluten too. Look at all the FODMAPs. Carnivore diet is a good shotgun approach.
