Happens after eating a bowl of lucky charm cereal Example: yesterday morning had a bowl of lucky charms then about one hour started feeling cramps then in the bathroom with diarrehia and feeling picky . It happened after I bought at 5 boxes because we eat them... See More everyday. Have been experiencing severe stomach cramps, diarreah and sick to our stomach after eating the cereal.

I had know idea that there was a issue with it until this happened. So I stop eating it for about three weeks and tried a new box of which I bought several boxes on sale there. I never should of tried it again because several hours later it started again diarrhea, severe stomach cramps and sick to my stomach. It’s been two days and still feeling crappy. I am never going to eat these again. What’s happening with lucky charms | Symptoms: Cramps, Diarrhea, Nausea, Vomiting See Less
