Steak

[karisue]

Hello,

My tummy has been playing up for about 2 wks and been constantly on the loo but dont like to take immodium as I block up and wont be able to go at all.

Yesterday for lunch I cooked a lovely peice of steak and had salad with 4 new potatoes. Since then I havent been able to go to the loo properly and feel bloated, and feel absolutely shattered, I cant understand why. Its as though my digetive system has got a job to cope with it.

Its not something I eat all the time either, I have literally gone from one extreme to the other and I dont want to take a laxative because I know I will go the other way and wont be able to stop. Ive hardly eaten today except for a soya yogart pot and its my husbands birthday today and supposed to be going out tonight.

Does this happen to anyone else, or is it just my stomach being awkward ?

Hi Karisue -
Happens to me also. When I have steak (once every couple of months), I find it clogs me too. Like my tummy is wrestling the meat to the ground. LOL. This is why I try not to eat it often even though I love steak and a nice cabernet.

What kind of steak was it some are harder to digest then others. Also it could be the salad my doctor suggested i not eat salad very often due to the fact that it can cause blockages and things like that.

I agree with Mark. I can only eat filet (awe, too bad ). Last week my hubby and I grilled ribeyes, and though they were delicious, I paid for it in a BIG way!
