Has anyone had to change there eating habits. Because my daughter throws up after she eats she has decided to not change her eating to see if that works and because she is an adult there is not much I can do. She eats alot of bread with honey and peanut butter on it twice a day and then eats lots of food for dinner
@A MyLupusTeam Member It sounds like your daughter could be suffering from symptoms of Celiac Disease, Gastroparesis, Pseudo-obstructive Motility Disorder or Gastritis which are all common in patients with lupus/Scleroderma and other autoimmune diseases. My 21 year old hasn't told any of her Dr's how sick I am, she won't listen to me at all, I believe she is afraid she could have lupus as well. I understand how concerned and frustrated you are😞❤️
I crave bread but can't eat it due to Celiacs. I assume the bread makes her feel full, and it if high fiber, it helps soak up stomach acid. I've found the gluten free breads to contain too much sugar. I don't eat much mornings because my stomach is often queezy. I try to hydrate well in the morning and drink a protein shake. My main meal typically is late in the day, and I try not to snack after it. Bananas definitely help settle my stomach. I like them just a little green.
It sounds like a really tough situation — watching your daughter struggle while respecting her independence as an adult is genuinely hard. Many MyLupusTeam members have had to navigate changes to their eating habits due to lupus-related digestive issues, so she's definitely not alone in this.
