i was born w cerebral palsy. i have had stomach problems since childhood. it seemed that i always had stress induced vomiting around the holidays, i would get sick w/ excitement. at 19, i had a barium x-ray and ultrasound. the tests came back inconclusive. in 2000 i had another barium test, that came back also negative. i have had increasing episodes of vomiting and sttomach pain and bowel problems. in 2007, things got really bad, i was throwing up even at home with no stress induced situations, i had irritable bowel symptoms, was given medicine by my family dr. w/out being formally diagnosed. at this time i also found out that i was allergic to artificial sweetners. as a teen, diet soda gave me a headache. what i didn't realize is nutrasweet has morphed into other names: splenda, ascesulfame k(potassium), sucralose(propel made by gatorade) gaviscon tablets helped my heartburn i was taking 10-18 a day. i ended up in the er thinking i was having a heart attack or stroke. my extremities went numb, i had dizzyness, severe headache and fast heart rate. it is a reaction to artificial sweetner. i am now also allergic to bottled water, due to the chlorine. chlorine is in artificial sweetner by product.
i had a third barium x-ray in june of '08. which allot of them are full of artificial sweetners. this time, i threw up the barium milkshake. the tech and dr. said,"No wonder, look at the size of that hiatal hernia
