Hi - a silly question here - have you ever had a flare up after eating a hamburger?
I've seen posts where ladies with Endo said that red meat and fatty foods made them feel worse.
I felt terrible after having a hamburger last time. My digestive system was so angry with me, that I almost would have suspected food poisoning, but it was different (and my husband was fine after the same meal). I could feel the "endometriosis burning" sensation in the pelvis that I would get around periods.
So... Are hamburgers banned for some of you?
I really like hamburgers, so I admit I'm going to try one more time. This will be in the name of science, to discover if the results are repeatable. I'm such a risk taker.
I’ve never personally had a hamburger but I think because it’s a red meat, that’s what’s caused the flare up. When I read up on endo and diet, red meat is one to avoid. Written in pretty much every article I read, they all say the same thing
I would recommend you trying it once more just to be certain, hope it doesn’t happen again..... fingers crossed!
Hi, I am literally in horrible pain this morning from having a hamburger last night. My specialist says that it’s my interstitial cystitis that’s causing me pain after eating and not my endometriosis. I have never been able to control my IC cos the meds they said to try sets off my IBS so I can’t figure out which it is.
I have found trial and error with all my foods is the way to avoid the pain.
I had a double cheeseburger from McDonald's at the weekend and the pain in my pelvis is still horrific! I'm thinking I have caused the pain to still be there by the food I've eaten, because I finished ovulation week on Saturday so I should be calming down now. Funny how something as needed as food causes us all this pain! Xxx
