Is It Normal Of Having Stomachache And Constipation After Having Shrimp?
I have been eating shrimp with shells to get glucosimine in my body because I don t like using pills or joint juice. I have been getting chest pains, stomach cramps, shoulder hurting, constipaton, and some times dizzy. But the pain in my meniscus and hip have greatly improved. But I don t think i can stand the side effects. I stopped eating the shrimp shells for over a week and the pain is just starting to go away. Is this normal?

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Persons can have an allergic or intolerant response to any food/drink.
It is possible, if the symptoms occur only when you eat the shrimp that your response is due to allergies but this can be tested by allergy testing.
This may be the best option because there is a potential for severe reaction if use is continued.
I hope this helps
