Egg intolerance?

Let me be clear that I am not looking for medical advice but am just asking if anyone else has experienced the same thing or has any pearls of wisdom.

I cannot eat omelettes as they give me a really dense feeling of heaviness right in the centre of my tummy. I have also noticed that I get the same sort of feeling after scrambled or fried eggs (I very rarely eat these and haven't eaten an omelette for many years).

However I get zero symptoms if I eat egg in a cake or fresh custard for example, or even a boiled egg.

I have no other food allergies as far as I am aware. Has anyone else experienced this? Thanks

Doesn't sound like an allergy or intolerance from what you're saying.

I kind of get the same feeling as eggs are very protein rich. They keep me full for ages.

Is that what you're experiencing or something else?

It is definitely a discomfort and makes me feel pretty crap.
