Vegetable problem

I am a moderately heatlhy 32 year old female. 
Within the last year I have noticed everytime I eat raw veggies of any type I end up with severe stomach pains.  They last aprox. 3 hours and hit within 30 minutes of eating.  I have ate salads and raw vegetables all my life and never had a problem.  I made appt with my DR. and he seemed stumped by my problem.  If anyone at all knows anything about this or has expereience it could you please post

Over the years I have found that I suffer more and more with stomach pains and these have got worse as the years have passed by, I found that eating certain foods made me feel really ill if even now if I eat more than a couple of biscuits (usually Digestive biscuits with a cup of tea.) within one hour I feel very nauseous, weak and my stomach feels raw and inflamed, this can be quite painful and I just want to sit and do nothing until it's over, visits to the Doctors didn't seem to help. A couple of years ago when I had felt really bad for several weeks I decided in desperation and feeling it was a food thing to try a detox,  I found a 30 day one that I thought suited me, to start with (and the book did warn me) I had headache for a couple of days but that then passed,  within a week the stomach pain had gone, at the end of 2 weeks i could feel my energy starting to return, I was eating almost non stop fruit, salads, nuts,  home made stir fry meals, fish, rice, vegetables, 2 litres of a day water and even better I was losing weight, ok life did seem to rotate around eating and reading labels in supermarkets but before the end of the course I felt like never before as if I had been subdued/poisoned for most of my life by the very food I had been eating, my wife was amazed no longer was I coming home from work and slumping onto the sofa totally drained after a days work (and my job isn't a strenuous one.) I was now looking around for things to do around the house all those jobs that had been waiting for so long for me to do were getting done. after the detox I started to introduce the foods I had given up on for those 30 days, after a week I felt myself slipping back to how I was and the raw stomach pain, nausea and tiredness returned, I have now modified my diet in order to avoid the foods that where poisoning my system, and although not perfect as with the detox I am doing better. I now do a detox twice a year, it's hard going to start with for the first time especially when everyone around you is eating all your favourite foods, but once you get into it it gets easier as your energy rises. my advice is to stick with it get past the first week and you will be amazed.
