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.

Posterboy,

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!

      Your post doesn't mention if you are seeing Doctors about this and what they had to say, or if you are just trying to manage it by yourself. If you aren't getting medical support, that is the first place to go. On the other hand, if you've been on a diagnostic odyssey with Dr after Dr being perplexed, consider getting your genome sequenced (search for "whole genome sequencing"). It's not guaranteed to get you an answer, but if your symptoms are caused by a genetic condition you might get the answer that is stumping standard differential diagnosis. These days there are quite a few companies offering this service. I wish I could tell you which one was best but I've been out of that field for a decade. Talk to your Dr about this and see what they think. Price is probably ~$500-$1,500 including the sequencing and detailed reports. Sounds like a lot, I know, but consider that 25 years ago just the sequencing (no reports) cost $2.7 B and took 3 years to complete.

      @yellowstone, You poor thing!  I'm not a medical doctor, but it sounds like "Refeeding Syndrome".   I suggest you seek medical attention.   Refeeding Syndrome occurs when your body doesn't have enough of the necessary vitamins, especially Thiamine, to turn sugars (from the fruit, juice, and honey) to turn provide energy.   This can occur in Malabsorption due to Celiac Disease.  Malabsorption prevents the absorption of B vitamins, especially Thiamine. The B vitamins and Thiamine cannot be stored long in the body.  When you run out of Thiamine, your body burns fat for energy which produces the Ketones, hence your weight loss. With medical attention, Thiamine and other B vitamins need to be replaced before giving any more sugars.  Doctors can give you an IV containing B vitamins including Thiamine, called a "banana bag".  Riboflavin  Vitamin B2 causes the yellow color.   Doctors can also monitor your electrolytes which can become unbalanced and cause further serious health issues. I've experienced Refeeding Syndrome.  It's very scary.  Health can deteriorate quickly in Refeeding Syndrome.  It's correctable, but complicated.   I strongly urge you to get professional medical attention as soon as possible.   Our prayers are with you! https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/23228-refeeding-syndrome Thiamine Deficiency in Self-Induced Refeeding Syndrome, an Undetected and Potentially Lethal Condition https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4295429/ Keep us posted on your progress!

      Due to malabsorption, I have hypoglycemia and I excrete ketones in my urine. I am losing a lot of weight. I don’t know what to do — I drink juice, eat fruit, take honey, but I don’t notice much improvement. Any advice?

      I ate sprouted buckwheat and hard boiled egg last night instead of cereal and got extra 1/2 hour sleep but more importantly feel better this morning. I do sleep in cycles that seems to rotate btwn 3 and 6 hrs but I will monitor next time I make a pot. Bwheat is a complete protein with good amounts of thiamin, magnesium, fiber and iron. High carb but much lower glycemic and much healthier than refined flour cereal.
