Hello all x. I found this website doing another frantic search on the internet for ways to "cure" myself. Long story short, i had some reactions to foods 3 years ago & after many meds, miss diagnosises, i have been diagnosed with a functional neurological disorder. The problem is, i was told it was allergies in the beginning and i have eaten the exact same foods day in day out at the exact same time each day. I eat a total of 5 things including butter. I havent had a veg fruit or anything containing sugar for a total of 3 years now. I cant shake the fear to try anything, ive seen specialists, dieticians and no one can help me. I have a complete fear of symptoms returning like swallowing difficulty & excessive mucus production to the point of choking. I cant shake it and i cant believe its not in fact allergies but all functional now. Ive lost a total of 5 stone and now struggle to fit into a size 4 uk clothing. Theres no joy to life, i had my own cake business which i lost last year due to this. I cook every day for my family, smell the food lovingly, pray for the day i can eat "normal" again, but it never comes. I have a panic attack just thinking about attempting to try something in my mouth. My doctors want to prescribe anti depressants but ive resisted. Im also afraid to take any kind of medication at all. Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated. Its good to know im not alone as we just dont fit the "norm" of bullemia, anorexia ect. Thanks for reading x

This is very interesting to me. So for most of your life you ate as a normal person and only after your illiness did you start limiting the foods you can or will eat. Sounds to me like something in your brain was damaged and it is also the part of our brains that had this defect for most of us from birth. I wonder does a lot of the food now appear to you as something that is not food? I hope you can join our Yahoo group so we can discuss your issues with us more. We may be able to help each other understand more fully why we have so many problems with food. Bob k
