I went off eating eggs when I was pregnant, DS is now 5 months and since he was born I've got terrible stomach cramps every time I've eaten egg. I've cut them out of my diet to a point, but haven't thought too much about the products which include egg as an ingredient and I haven't had any issues. However, tonight I ate a cake which contains a lot of egg and I've been in agony ever since.
The pain I get is across the top of my stomach and feels like a dull and heavy ache. I take gaviscon and Rennies which eventually help (I think, it could be that the pain goes away on it's own) but it lasts for a few hours. I haven't been sick with it but it exhausts me and I go freezing cold and shivery too. Does this sound like an allergy, an intolerance or something else? I'm in my thirties, is it possible to just develop an allergy/intollerance to something that has been a large part of my diet for most of my life?
Is it something I should see the dr about or is it just a case of avoiding eggs and getting on with it? I guess I don't want to be making a mountain out of a molehill but I also don't want to make things worse. And right now it's utter agony.
