Today I am suffering from eating a rather pink chicken breast for dinner last night. :( Yes, entirely my fault - it was take-out, I saw it looked a bit pink, but being tired of being "that picky eater" I decided to eat it. Oooh, bad choice.

Anyway, to help combat the nausea/vomiting that I've been dealing with this morning, I took one adult finkmote (sp?) tablet, then realized I didn't know if it was gluten-free. I found a website that said the soft gels are definitely lactose- and gluten-free, but it didn't mention about the type I took.

Anyone? And yes, I will be sticking to the TRAT diet today and likely tomorrow. Oog.

I found this:

Filmkote Tablets 50 mg

Each round, biconvex, peach coral tablet, intagliated "GRAVOL" on one side and quadrisected on the other, contains dimenhydrinate 50 mg. Nonmedicinal ingredients: alumina, cellulose, FD&C Yellow No. 6, lactose, magnesium stearate, polyethylene glycol, silicon dioxide, starch (corn), talc, and titanium dioxide. Gluten- and tartrazine-free.

Hope this helps!

If your symptoms don't ease up soon get yourself to the doctor. You likely have salmonella and sometimes folks need a course of antibiotics to clear it up. You may be fine after a day or so in which case don't worry.

Also make sure you call that takeout place and talk to the manager. He will need to alert the staff as to what happened. If the manager seems clueless call the local Health Dept and let them know. I actually had a manager ask what salmonella was when a restaurant got me with undercooked shrimp and chicken in a mixed meal. This floored me as I used to be a chef and restaurant staff is supposed to be trained in this sort of thing and what to do to prevent it. I was very sick for a couple weeks before I could get the doctor to test. 2 days later I got an apology and a script for Cipro.

      Vaccines

      For individuals who have experienced negative reactions to the flu vaccine, there are alternative formulations that may reduce the risk of allergic responses. Traditional flu vaccines are typically produced using egg-based methods, which can pose issues for those with egg allergies. However, there are now several egg-free options available, such as cell-based...

      Mayo is great and yes I had the same experience. They take you seriously and they check everything. I to wish other Dr's cared that much. I sure hope it's not refractory celiac also.

      Vaccines

      When I went to the Mayo Clinic back in 21' it was pretty amazing. The doctor sat and went over everything with me for a couple hours. I finally had to ask him if he had other patient to see. He said that not until he was done with me. I went back to my hotel room that day after some blood work and then got an itinerary of tests to be done over the next 5...

      Antibodies my number is in 500's. COVID hit and I was layed off from my job so no insurance (was in Arizona) so couldn't complete all the other testing they wanted to do. Back home and contacted Minnesota Mayo and they take my new insurance so considering going back in spring.

He said that not until he was done with me. I went back to my hotel room that day after some blood work and then got an itinerary of tests to be done over the next 5 days. It was unbelievable. I had what would've been 4 years of testing back home done in 5 days. I went home at the end of 5 days and got my results a week later on a zoom call. EPI and rapid gastric emptying syndrome. I do have celiac disease but that wasn't the cause of my continued symptoms. Those people up there are great. Wouldn't that be amazing if all medical care was like that?  That's weird that the antibodies are that high. Hopefully it's not refractory celiac disease. Good luck.

      I've been to the Mayo Clinic. Outstanding place. Did they test to see if you might have refractory celiac disease? This may explain why the symptoms persist but what numbers are off the charts? Are they antibodies, liver enzymes?
