Soy Problems, Dry Eyes, etc.?

[mathandsciencemom]

I haven't been officially diagnosed with celiacs, but I don't think I need any kind of test to tell me I have intestinal damage due to foods.  I really watch my intake of dairy, gluten, wheat, (and now, soy).  After 2 years I'm still uncertain about the gluten, since I rarely mess up on that one and it's usually coupled with an ingredient of soy or dairy, leaving me not knowing for sure.  This last episode felt like I had lost a few years of my life.  I had been eating some beef jerky that I had made with gluten free soy. I must have been exhausted because I ate a granola bar with dairy and wheat in it, and I NEVER just eat something without thinking.  I think it was the soy though, because I've had other episodes of a soy and gluten contamination.  Anyways, it happened so fast.  Within 2 minutes, I my upper stomach and intestines (just under my sternum) was in so much pain.  It was hard and swollen.  I started sweating profusely and my back radiates intense pain.   I tried sitting up in a bathroom stall but I couldn't control the pain.  I was so out of my mind with pain I laid on the floor in the bathroom on a nasty dirty concrete floor at a sports arena and someone found me.  I passed out during that time.  I came to on my own and dragged myself to the toilet where I made myself throw it all up and started getting some immediate relief.  I've never passed out before from the pain.  Is there anyone out there that has symptoms like this for soy?  I also have eczema across my eyes and in my ears.  Not sure if it's related too.

I had the same symptoms from gluten.  This is exactly what would happen to me before I was diagnosed with celiac. I was living by myself at the time and would pass out in the living room,  bathroom,  kitchen, etc from the pain.  I would break out in an intense hot cold sweat and be doubled over in so much pain that I would hyperventilate and pass out.  It happened to me at work too,  right before I grabbed a trash can and threw up in it right in front of my boss!
