@sub12 Hello there. My heart aches for you as you try on your own to find help with your conditions. Can you connect with your local Hospital Dietician by phone? I live in a fairly small community on Vancouver Island where it's tough to access specialists or university facilities. However, when I was hospitalized recently after a bad fall, the nurses put two and two together and realized I was having great difficulty with food. My meal trays were going back, barely touched, because there was so much I couldn't eat due to IBD and OLP issues.
(painful gut/painful mouth). The hospital dietician contacted me by phone while I was in the hospital and followed up by sending a six-page dietary directive to the seniors' residence where I live, after also directly contacting the Head Chef here. Although my residence food is excellent, I'd been unable to eat properly or nutriciously for a very long time because of my two painful conditions. Now, the Chef adheres to my new dietary restrictions and things are improving for me. The Dietician has kept up contact with me by phone. Please give this a try!
And be assured you have friends at Mayo Clinic Connect.
Sub12, I add my welcome. I've added your question to the Digestive Health group as well as the Autoimmune Diseases group. I think members like @astaingegerdm @stormchild74 @cim37343 @oakbourne and @ltssjs might have tips to offer about diet and more when dealing with Duodenitis, Gastritis and Pancreatitis.
Sub12, what foods don't work for you? Which ones are best?
@sub12 Oh, my. I think you may want to do a little less intensive research and put a little more trust in physicians. Can you start with your GP or gastroenterologist. Tell her that you really need help and then listen. And summarize your journal into the 1-2 problems/symptoms that most affect your life. These should be the focus of your appointment. Don’t try to know it all. As lay persons, we only understand about 1/4 of medical writing.
Will you try this and let me know how it goes?
I will be praying for you 💖😊🙏
