Morning Severe Stomach Cramps


(Ed) #1

Hi All,

Hope you can help.

Over the last three days, I have had bad cramps in the morning. Today being so painful couldn’t stay in any position for more than a few seconds.

It started on Tuesday. I had taken my morning pills -

  • 2 Keto Fire from Ancient Nutrition
  • 1 Livton Complex (for my fatty liver)
  • 1 Bio-CMP (calcium, magnesium, potassium)
  • 5 Bioplasma (cell salts)

I have taken all of these before consistently.

I was on a call for about 1.5 hours. I could feel my stomach not doing well.

Then I had breakfast

  • 1 large hard boiled egg
  • 2 TBL organic mayo
  • 1 TBL Costco pesto sauce
  • 3 ounces jicama

I don’t know how long, but the stomach just didn’t feel good at all. I had to rest. Take a nap. It felt better in the afternoon…

I took the supplements, mentioned about 3 times during the day.

Wednesday…

  • Took supplements
  • Calls
  • Same breakfast except egg is fried

Again, stomach is bad. Have to rest.

OK afternoon…

Today (Thursday)…

Took the supplements… That’s it.

Terrible, painful cramps (and I have a fairly high tolerance for pain). I’m better now after resting and napping. But I still feel the unsetttledness of my stomach.

The pain feels like it is the top of the stomach to the bottom of the rib cage.

Some other notes…

1, I restarted ketogenic diet March 12, 2018. Had been doing off and on in 2017

  1. I stopped April 10-23 as I was travelling.Then have been on and off.

  2. Most recent streak with a cheat day or two has been April 19.

  3. Today, I measured my ketones (urine) first thing in the morning and I am about 8mmol

  4. I had major cheat days from May 3 - 6. On may 7 I weighed myself at 206. Today, may 10, I am 199.5

Based on what I have in Cronometer:

  • 1824 Calories per day
  • 33g protein
  • 20g carbs
  • 179g fat

Any thoughts on the stomach cramping?

Thanks!

Your unneccessary exogenous ketone supplement contains MCT oil which is well known for causing digestive issues, if it’s the one I found details of online. Could well be that. Try not wasting your money on it and see how you get on :wink:
