Hello , how is everyone. I am new and looking for support. I have been dealing with this condition for 2 years now. It affects me everyday. I need to limit the amount of food I eat inorder to feel normal. The last fwe days has been tough since it has been the holidays. I have been getting sick when I lay down to sleep, choke on my food. For the next few days I will be on a fast, got to get this food through my system.
I tried Reglan but I had serious side effects from it, nervous and anxious. I don't take anything for it and haven't had to take anything for an upset stomach in awhile. I have been doing good restricting my diet up until the holidays.
It is hard managing this when I have to cook for the family. I don't feel like eating most of the time so cooking is tough but the family has got to eat. I don't know what I am gonna do today, I feel sick and full.
I hope that the board has more visitors, would like to connect with others.

Hi, Sheila and welcome,
I am sorry that it took me so long to get back to you but I wanted to welcome you on board... right now the forum is still small but we are hoping that as the word gets out and more people find out about it more people will join in the discussions.
We have many people that 'lurk' waiting to see what happens before joining the forum because they think that there is nothing they can do to help anyone... but every experience that is shared helps raise awareness about different aspects of this condition and can help others with every day situations that many take for granted.
I know how it feels to have to be the one to cook for the family when you yourself cannot eat what you cook... your family needs to eat so it is not like you can stop but at the same time you start to feel more like an employee of the family and less like a member.
