"sudden" intolerance...

 Religious, political...Yeah they shot Kennedy in Texas but....
I choose to avoid the darker subjects in this train of thought and google-in on stuff I used to like a couple years ago that now make my stomach go bad: Onions.

Google misunderstands the question of "sudden intolerance"


The one saving grace Trump has is that he does not talk like a politician, all vague.

So I'd like to find a non scientific sounding article
 ("Your gall bladder went tits-up, your pancreas sucks")
At the risk of sounding pedantic and bombastic, talking s l o w l y for the readers who cannot grasp concepts.....
I used to Like onions and garlic and products which had them (Ketchup)

and the politically-correct answer is:
You are sick because you're sick and you're weak.
Yeahbutt...O, NVM

An answer from Someone old white and conservative is needed here.





Unfortunately, google says there is no cure, no pill, and then shows all the people advertising pills,
and weird-sounding enzymes named after their company.
It's an enzyme (say some) but they don't say where the enzyme comes from (which organ) or why it is lacking.
But here, take our expensive pill.


We're fucked, and then we die.

Maybe there's a two-for-one sale on tests (That machine is NOT cheap)

Is your ALT high?
Now you know why.
It's sort of a qualification-test to get into better testing.
Useless Ultrasound or (if you've really made it) MRI

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^



The "Yeahbutt" argument you prolly shouldn't discuss with fatalistic PCP's is, you USED to really like onions and garlic, so what happened?
Who died and made onions intolerable?
But they'll write you off as a crank. So fucket, "Have a nice day"





------------
I wonder why in the 9 or so years since this happened, I've never been referred to an allergy specialist.
I don't think about it much, I figure that at an HMO level they do not exist.
I'm skeptical that they could tell me much I don't already know.

I bought bologna (The cheap kind) and my stomach wasn't exactly pleased.
"Whaaat!??"
But it didn't pull the fire alarm, it's just letting me know that it was NOT amused.
I don't usually care, under my under-a-rock-hermit conditions, but I have somewhere to go.
And it would be just like it to want to give a speech halfway there or back.
