Ive recently been in hospital for a sudden illness. I was in for over a week and pretty poorly.
Ive been told to modify my diet and not drink alcohol even in moderation.
Just more restrictions to my life.
I cant have caffiene ...i get palpitations.
Im allergic to shell fish
Cant eat spices
Cant sunbathe as I have Vitiligo.
On low fat diet...high cholesterol
No foods high in iodine due to Thyroid problems.

I know I should be glad to be alive but feel I am missing out!

Im going on holiday soon but finding it so difficult to get insurance and Im worried I may get ill while away.

Aibu to feel so crappy ?

I'd be in shock at a lifestyle change too! I don't smoke or drink, but food is my vice Blush Being asked to give up sugar, for example, would be pretty tough for me.
Do you know what though, it would do me a lot of good!
YANBU for feeling crappy but I'd give yourself a wee bit of time to wallow, and then get proactive! Make a list of all the things you'd like to do on your holiday, and the foods you want to try. It's hard to be positive at the moment, but you just need time.
I wish you well FlowersFlowersFlowers
