Esophagus Flare Up caused by Hummus !

Dear All,

I've now found the caused of my recent Esophagus flare up's! Last week I brought from Morrisons some ready made hummus as a dip to have with some sliced cucumber or salads. Well after a few days of horrid pain which I managed to get under control flared up again after having a small amount of hummus wrapped in some very lean ham for lunch yesterday! The combination mixture of the oil, chickpeas, garlic and Thani paste are now band from my fridge👎👎

My fingers are now crossed my Esophagus is now on the mend! 👍👍👍

[P13jne]

Trish that’s weird. I’m glad you found out what was causing it. Jane xx

[Hidden in reply to P13jne]

Fingers crossed my diagnoses is correct !👍

[ThreeSmiles]

That’s great!

Is there anyone else in the band? Maybe you could invite Brian May?

Milo

[Hidden in reply to ThreeSmiles]

If I only, maybe Donavan or Ray Davis from the Kinks could join me?

Teach praised me last night in front of the class! He said I'd improved and listened to what he said from my private one to one lesson the day before ! How cool was that! Practice! Practice ! Rock Chick will get there 🎸🎼..... slowly does it!

[ThreeSmiles in reply to Hidden]

That’s great Trishi 👍

My SOH has passed you by again though - you’re losing your touch 🤪. But yes I know my SOH is rubbish!

[Hidden in reply to ThreeSmiles]

Please do explain! Trishi falling behind on SOH front!

Brian May plays guitar and so do ! Well trying too 😂😂😂

[ThreeSmiles in reply to Hidden]

You might band me too if I tell you.

[Hidden in reply to ThreeSmiles]

Pretty please ...I've got brain fog and need help ......

[ThreeSmiles in reply to Hidden]

Hey 😁. Please google thesaurus and “not allowed”. Surprisingly the correct word is top of the list 😁👍.

I think yours is a pea souper ☹️

[ThreeSmiles in reply to ThreeSmiles]

Sorry - bit rude this morning ☹️. I had same problem as you last night 👎🏻

[Hidden in reply to ThreeSmiles]

Hope your ok now? 👍

[Hidden in reply to ThreeSmiles]

Got it! 😊👍

[davianne]

Hi Trish, well done for the detective work. I'm glad your esophagus on the mend.

Ah, so your teachers pet now🤣🤣🤣. I'll have a word with Ray, and see if he'll pop over......... sorry, only joking 😊😊😊.

David

[Hidden in reply to davianne]

Blummin heck David! I know you've socialised with the best but you had me going then! I loved Ray Davis back in the 60's and 70's ,Amazing voice !

Not sure about teacher's pet but he did make me feel on a slight high !😊

He's 31 with really long dark hair, funny as hell and a real dare devil! Rock climbs every week, plays in a band , teaches at another school and burns the candles at both ends by teaching others in his spare time.... lol

[davianne]

Hi Trish,

That gives you a new song to learn ......Days...... easy peasy 🤣🤣🤣. I loved the cover by Kirsty McColl.

Davis

[Hidden in reply to davianne]

Wow! Ray Davis singing Days at Glastonbury in 2010 ! Just watched his performance on YouTube! I just adore this guy music and voice !

Wonder if he does any private gigs still around the UK !

Will definately give it ago ! Waterloo Sunset's another good one!

Trishy

[Hidden in reply to davianne]

Bummer, Ray has cancelled all UK tours for this year and the few he booked for 2020! He's touring the US instead 👎

[VeeWat in reply to Hidden]

My husband will be pleased about tour. He’s a major Kinks fan and collector.

[Hidden in reply to VeeWat]

So your in the US ? Hope your hubby gets to see them live!

[VeeWat in reply to Hidden]

Since early 70’s he’s been going to see them in Chicago. Then saw Ray solo and Dave solo before and after stroke. Has all their albums, 45’s etc. and t shirts. Lol I’ve gone with him over the decades but not every time.

[Hidden in reply to VeeWat]

A true follower which is wonderful! 👍

[davianne in reply to Hidden]

You could say, "A dedicated follower of fashion"🤣🤣🤣

Davis

[Hidden in reply to davianne]

Adorable David! Another favourite 😊👍

[davianne]

Hi Trish, he's just following the yellow brick road 🤑🤑🤑, don't forget his brother 🎸🎸🎸,😉😉😉,

David

[Hidden]

So you can no longer ab-Zorba the Greek. Yamas. 🤔

[Hidden]

Windex should keep me on track .... get it....????lol

[Hidden]

You've all just made me chuckle.

Going back to hummus our son Mike is really bad if he has it, bad stomach ache and terrible IBS amongst his other problems. He can't have garlic, onion or chick pea, plus many other things too. Love and hugs Lynne xxxx

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

Hopefully Mike's no longer eating any of the above now ?

Its definately a No! No for me for sure on the hummus front!

Love Trish x

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

It's been off his list for a while, now. How are you feeling tonight ? Love and hugs Lynne xxxx

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

I'm fine Lynne!

Bye for now x

[ThreeSmiles]

Read this Trishi - hot off the press, I’m being serious this time, honest!

dailymail.co.uk/news/articl...

[Hidden in reply to ThreeSmiles]

Hummus is not the same?

Semolina didn't we get that at school dinners.

+Tapioca. 🤫

[ThreeSmiles in reply to Hidden]

Ive no idea at all. They both begin with H.

Semolina - yuk. I didn’t read the article at all - just the headline. Reading would be a bit much for me 😁especially at this time of night 😁. Actually I am just reading about septicaemia - is that the same as semolina?

[Hidden in reply to ThreeSmiles]

Houmous it is by Zorba Delicacies Ltd.

Only effects children & elderly.?

So Don't ab-zorba the Greek.

Semolina poisoning I'd say.

[ThreeSmiles in reply to Hidden]

There you go then!! The latter may apply? What do I know... ahh yes let’s blame the semolina - I’m all for that 👍

I’m now getting into Staphylococcus aureus - exciting midnight reading indeed it is......😁

[Hidden in reply to ThreeSmiles]

Stumped, that's not cricket.🏏

[ThreeSmiles in reply to Hidden]

Aha - so it’s Over AND Out then. Nite 👍😁

[Hidden in reply to ThreeSmiles]

Blummin heck Miles , did you sleep at all tonight?

[ThreeSmiles in reply to Hidden]

Yes 2 hours 👍

[Hidden in reply to ThreeSmiles]

Better than nothing I guess 👍

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

Hated both so they got the 👎👎👎

[ThreeSmiles in reply to Hidden]

What? Semolina and Staphylococcus aureus?

[Hidden in reply to ThreeSmiles]

Semolina and Tapioca silly 👎

At primary school we called Tapioca frogs sporn 👎😊👎

[ThreeSmiles in reply to Hidden]

What’s frog sporn when it’s at home? 😁

[Hidden in reply to ThreeSmiles]

Are you kidding me ! Have you ever looked at frogs eggs? It looks like Tapioca...👎👎👎

Maybe I spelt it incorrectly...will check as it's not my best subject .....

[Hidden in reply to ThreeSmiles]

Ha! ha! Frogs spawn ! I'm so crap at spelling 👎👎👎👎but I do believe there's a similarity don't you think ????

[Hidden in reply to ThreeSmiles]

Wow! I do wonder now whether there was a connection. Well at least my symptoms have now stopped and the left over went in the bin for collection yesterday.

Thank you for sharing this news Miles !,

[ThreeSmiles in reply to Hidden]

👍

[Hidden]

Indian restaurants, Sunday luncheon & now Houmous. It's not gravy. 🍴

[ThreeSmiles in reply to Hidden]

It’s not cricket either....

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

It could be if you added my oil🤣🤣🤣🤣

[Megbird]

Hi Trish I am glad you've found out. You can make your own hummus using just chick peas and leave all other ingredients out especially raw garlic. Find the best recipe for this on the daily mail website. If you use tinned chickpeas make sure you wash them thoroughly. Otherwise make your own from scratch. However chickpeas itself could be the main culprit for your misery. All the best.

[Hidden in reply to Megbird]

Cheers Megbird for your lovely message! I may have a go at making my own as I have noticed numerous recipe's,, however, I'm weighing up the discomfort against a low fat yoghurt dip and I think my dips may win this one hands down!

I'm going to miss the taste of the hummus but hey ho .... no pain wins !

How's you in the meantime ?

Love Trish

[Megbird in reply to Hidden]

Thanks for your reply. I am doing ok just about. I have few things nagging me at the moment. I hope that i will be fine soon. I am trying my best watching what i eat. Going for an hour walk right now. I have a painful/discomfort toe over the past 3years and it is getting worse every winter. Been to my GP for it. Nothing they can do about it. Apart from being adviced to buy toe support/separator. Nightmares. Have a nice day

[Hidden in reply to Megbird]

Oh blummin heck, painful ! Do you suffer with gout as that's very painful and normally affects the feet!

I have heard that eating lots of celery helps the circulation in your toes and taking daily turmeric is also brilliant for the joints! I'm about to start taking turmeric daily to see if it relieves the inflammation in my knee's!

Enjoy your walk !

Love Trish x

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

You can't miss gout just a tad more than a little pain / discomfort. You can't even allow the bed sheet to touch it. Acute attack usually overnight so as soon as you put your foot to the floor its like being hit with 40,000 volts.

No walkies, can't drive.

For info. My son thought he had it GP says flat feet. Going for full assessment on Fri @ Foot clinic.

New one on me. Wasn't born with it.

🤔

[ThreeSmiles in reply to Hidden]

Gout is truly horrible. Often afflicts the big toe! 😁. It’s a bummer for sure.

[Hidden in reply to ThreeSmiles]

On the ball Nod. Left ankle for me odd ball. Doc has kept me on tabs despite being alco free. I'd prefer to ween myself of any non essential meds. I'll ask him again @ 4 bells.💊

[ThreeSmiles in reply to Hidden]

#1 What are you on about 😀

#2 what tabs

#3 let us know outcome 😀

[Hidden in reply to ThreeSmiles]

Threesmiles wiped in one. Bullseye.

What do u mean? what do u mean? Went to Doc for chesty cough. Was gona ask again bout gout meds he's kept me on Allopurinol tabs. Don't think I need them now. No alco no pain. Rather keep essential meds & bin it

Didn't get my own GP didn't ask.🙄

[ThreeSmiles in reply to Hidden]

Just about understand you.... 😁

[Hidden in reply to ThreeSmiles]

The Covonias kicked in. 🤫

[ThreeSmiles in reply to Hidden]

Now I don’t 🤔. Oh I get it now the Covonia HAS kicked in ....Say what you see....even if it’s just a we word.....

[Hidden in reply to ThreeSmiles]

I must admit I was struggling to understand to but then thought meds?

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

😭

[ThreeSmiles in reply to Hidden]

ofeck you are a naughty man.....😁

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

My son was diagnosed with flat feet and was given plastic insole to wear in his shoe's after plaster casts had been taken of both feet when he was around 10 at the time!

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

Yip I purchased some for our big wee son & got him the Podiatrist appt. Their doing a full test 1 hr ish. Child has to wear shorts.😁

[ThreeSmiles in reply to Hidden]

Who’s we? I think you may be taking the.....😁

[Hidden in reply to ThreeSmiles]

Weee. It's a typo. One finger no thumb. Short hand. 😮

[ThreeSmiles in reply to Hidden]

I don’t believe you - you were taking the piddle out of SL weren’t you - never mind your short hand - bet you don’t even know who Greggs is. And no the answer is NOT a bakery 😛

[Hidden in reply to ThreeSmiles]

Nooooooo. 🐾4 thought?

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

Now it's time to behave ! 😊

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

One gets carried away but the craic is beneficial to one's health no matter what. Stay on topic party poppers.💯🤫

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

Nighty nite Ofeck!

[ThreeSmiles in reply to Hidden]

Yes you really ought 🤪

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

I'll give you 🐾4 thought comment!!!!! Naughty lad !

😂

[Megbird in reply to Hidden]

It is not gout. It is a second toe from left (from my small toe) on my left foot. All started by wearing these old white wedges 3years ago. I went to a Radio Music festival in London. Gosh the pain on both of my feet made me leave just after 2 hours. It was a sunday evening so all shoe shops were closed. I left the festival and went home. That it is how it started and that was the end of me and the old white wedges.x

[Hidden in reply to Megbird]

I think pride kicked in here ! Will we ever learn to listen to what our bodies are telling us!

Do hope there's some magical remedy to relieve your pain!

Take care and keep in touch x

[Megbird in reply to Hidden]

Not necessarily. I should had something comfortable like trainers or lower boots. Lesson learnt in a hardway.

[Hidden in reply to Megbird]

We've both been there.....🤣🤣🤣

[C1JAM]

Lot of salt in all that too, particularly the ham

[Hidden in reply to C1JAM]

Maybe, but it was very thin lean ham and I must eat! I do however dislike salt but do adore pepper on most things ! Minimal salt in cooking is used!

[Monika2018]

Hello, esophagus pain, how you describe it? Since Sunday I feel like something obstructs my throat, pain swallowing and chest pains when swallowing. Just wandering ... Thank you and all the best.

[Hidden in reply to Monika2018]

Hi Monika

It sounds like to me that you need to visit your GP if your having chest pains with throat obstruction ! I would give GP or 111 a call asap !

Please keep us all updated

Love Trish

[Isabelle2]

Talking of Ray Davis there’s something on BBC R 4 on Saturday. I think it’s at 2.45. Might be worth a listen 😃

Izzy xx

[Hidden in reply to Isabelle2]

Cheers Lizzy! Will log this info so I dont miss !

Love Trish

[Hidden]

Demis Roussos? with classics like - My friend the wind or Forever and ever. No more Hummus. 😭

[AyrshireK]

I hope this isn't your issue - Morrison's houmous salmonella recall. which.co.uk/news/2019/10/fo...

[Hidden in reply to AyrshireK]

Cheers AyrshireK

ThreeSmiles sent me a link first this morning!

Im glad to say my hummus was thrown out on Monday which was brought from Morrison and a second tub from our local farm shop!

Esophagus has now settled back down ! 🤗

Love Trish
