Hi all im 25 from wales uk, iv had crohns since i was 13, last 4years iv had it very bad on and off from day to day or week to week, i cant find a diet or specific foods that i can eat and wont affect me and can live a normal life as all i want to do is be well enought to go to work and earn money and enjoy life but last 2years i havent been able to that,
this is list of foods i dont touch .....
acidic foods or drinks
meat of any sort
nothing fried or cooked in oil
spicy or hot foods
rice or pasta as it gets stuck
fizzy drinks
alcohol
brown bread
no seads or nuts
not to much dairy foods.. ( milk with cerials is all i can handle or a cheese sandwich)
ready meals
no fruit or veg at all as they all get stuck
things i find i can eat but then somtimes im in agony with
white bread
cheese (sandwich)
pizza
ice cream
scrambeled eggs
jelly
toast
ham
jam
baked beans
maco cheese in tin
orange or black currant squash,
i cant seem to find a diet or any one food that i can eat and know i wont be in pain in few hours, its very frustating as im a hgv lorry driver i cant just eat anything and need to pack for week which i dont mind just be nice to know what to pack,
iam on the modulin power that you mix with water to make a shake which does help as i know ill b ok but it doesnt give me energy or goodnes that other foods do that are part of 5 a day, plus being up so early or late doing my job it doesnt wake me up or keep me going like a coffee or sandwich can, neither i can eat late at night or early in morning, between 6am and 6pm i eat any earlyer or later than that im in pain no matter what i eat, so thats my deadlines,
is there any one else is same boat as me , i dont mind eating same foods over and over again if ill be well enough to go to work as i like my job and the goverment wont evan look at my form or give me help if im not working iv tried and as i can get up dress myself and do daily tasks they wont help me in any way,
can anyone give me help or advise on foods to try or doc to see ect,
fruit veg meat fried foods and anything that isnt almost watery i cant eat thats how i look at it if its hard or hot spicy then ill be in hospital needing morphene,
and yes i know the opperation i can have but i have 3 restrictures and only 2 they can remove so whats point when ill still b in pain and unable to eat,
thanks for reading all and hope to hear from some one with any idears
