Why do I get sick when I eat eggs and mango in the same day?

If I eat eggs and mango in the same meal I simply do not digest my food. It just sits there until I puke. It does the same thing with eggs and pineapple or eggs and eggplant. And if I eat the eggs in the morning and the mango, pineapple or eggplant later in the day; instead of just puking I get explosive diarrhea.

What is the mechanism that is making this happen? What about eggs and these fruits is messing me up? I can eat each of things just fine by themselves. It's just the combination that kills me.

    What Happens When a Person Has an Egg Allergy?

    Eggs in themselves aren't bad, but when you're allergic to them, your body thinks they are. When a person is allergic to eggs, the body's immune system overreacts to proteins in the egg. Every time something made with eggs enters the digestive system of a person with an egg allergy, the body thinks that these proteins are harmful invaders.

    The immune system responds by creating specific antibodies to that food, which are designed to fight off the “invader.” These antibodies — called immunoglobulin E (IgE) — trigger the release of certain chemicals into the body, one of which is histamine (pronounced: hiss-tuh-meen).

    So when a person with an egg allergy eats a food that contains eggs, the immune system unleashes an army of chemicals to protect the body. The release of these chemicals can affect the respiratory system, gastrointestinal tract, skin, and the cardiovascular system — causing allergy symptoms like wheezing, nausea, headache, stomachache, and itchy hives.

    Most people who are allergic react to the proteins in egg whites, but some can't tolerate proteins in the yolk. Egg allergy usually first appears when kids are very young, and most kids outgrow it by the time they're 5 years old.

    Egg allergy is like most food allergy reactions: It usually happens within minutes to hours after eating eggs. Most reactions last less than a day and may affect any of three body systems:

    the skin - in the form of red, bumpy rashes (hives), eczema, or redness and swelling around the mouth

    the gastrointestinal tract - in the form of belly cramps, diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting

    the respiratory tract - symptoms can range from a runny nose, itchy, watery eyes, and sneezing to the triggering of asthma with coughing and wheezing

    Most people with egg allergy have some of the reactions listed above, but a few people may have a very strong reaction called anaphylaxis (pronounced: ah-nuh-fuh-lak-sis). This severe allergic reaction causes swelling of the mouth, throat, and airways leading to the lungs, resulting in breathing difficulty. In addition, there is a dangerous drop in blood pressure, which can make someone dizzy or pass out, and may quickly lead to shock.

    For people who are especially sensitive to eggs, even egg fumes or getting egg on the skin can cause an anaphylactic reaction, so eggs should be kept out of the house completely.

    I cant eat eggs...boiled ones or just plainly fried

    But scrambled eggs as long as it goes with onions tomatoes and shrooms are just fine...

    I suggest you shouldnt eat them the same day or you can just eat eggs later in the evening while you eat some of ur favorite fruits earlier that day....

    I dont touch eggs at all, except if its scrambled...
