Lupus & Celiac - limited diet


Lia Jay

Recommended Posts

Lia Jay Newbie

Hello Everyone. Maybe someone can help me. I saw my rheumatologist and found out I have lupus and hyperurecemia which lead to chronic gout. My kidneys are in stage 3 damage and I have GERD and Celiac disease. I’m down to eating boiled eggs, boiled chicken, boiled potatoes, and green beans. 

All of this stemmed from poisoning with a stomach medication.  I cannot take allopurinol to relieve the chronic gout so I’m stuck  

Is there anyone else out there suffering from all of these or have any ideas about what I can do to feel better?

Thank you...

That’s tough.  I don’t know anything about the diet restrictions for gout.  Can you at least switch up what you can eat?  Like a baked potato instead of boiled?  Scrambled eggs ?  Baked chicken?  If you can eat chicken can you eat turkey?  Can you eat sweet potatoes?  Might make life a little more pleasant?

I am sorry that you are unwell.  

 There are recommendations for a gout diet, but they are not that restrictive.  Why are you so limited (even more restrictive than the Autoimmune Paleo diet)?  Is your celiac disease flaring too and these are your safe foods (easy to digest and make)?

I agree with adding sweet potatoes if possible.  Sweet potatoes are more nutritious than white potatoes.  Plus white potatoes are a bad choice because of the alkaloids in them that many people react to.  White potatoes are a nightshade vegetable and some people can't tolerate nightshades.  All people react to the alkaloids in white potatoes but they are usually not enough of a problem for most people to have symptoms.

Other roots vegetables you could try are turnips, radishes, carrots.  Those may or may not work for your diet though.

Lia Jay,

Eat you some Berries ....they can be good for Gout and take you some Magnesium Glycinate with or w/out food or Magnesium Citrate with meals.

Here is a couple links that will help you.

I hope this is helpful but it is not medical advise.

I deal with three different autoimmune disorders.  If my celiac disease is flaring, the other two tend to flare up too. Often lasting longer than my celiac disease symptoms.   I hope that by managing your  celiac disease will help you best deal with your lupus diagnosis.  

Feel better fast!

      I agree, and hopefully your doctor will contact you soon about the next step, which will likely be an endoscopy to confirm your diagnosis. Do you have celiac disease symptoms?

      Still dealing with this rash on my legs. I've eliminated ringworm (through use of topical ointments). And I also know it's not shingles, as I've never had chickenpox before and I'm still fairly young. Through a lot of online research, I'm leaning more towards dermatitis herpetiformis, eczema, or psoriasis. I've actually got a doctor's appointment in May (finally got some insurance) and I'm going to bring it up then. I'm feeling really hopeful and excited to maybe be getting some relief soon.   Big thanks to everyone for the suggestions and positive thoughts!

      You have three celiac disease specific antibody tests that are positive: Endomysial  Antibody IGA (aka, EMA), tTG-IGA, and tTG_IGG. Furthermore, your Immunoglobulin A at 55 is low, meaning you are IGA deficient. This one is not an antibody test for celaic disease per se but a measure of "total IGA" levels and if low (yours is low) it can suppress the individual antibody scores and even cause false negatives. So, yes, it definitely looks like you have celiac disease.   Do not yet begin a gluten free diet as your physician may refer you to a GI doc for an endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel lining for confirmation of the antibody testing. This may help:

      Hi, I received my labs via email yesterday and have not heard back from my doctor yet. Can anyone tell me if these results indicate I have Celiac?      Endomysial Antibody IgAPositive  Ft-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA6  H0-3 (U/mL) - Negative 0 - 3 - Weak Positive 4 - 10 - Positive >10 - Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten-sensitive enteropathy. FImmunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum55  L87-352 (mg/dL) Ft-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgG183  H0-5 (U/mL) - Negative 0 - 5 - Weak Positive 6 - 9 - Positive >9

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.
