(orginal issue --> Open Original Shared Link

Okay well I was at the Kroger buying the lactose free milk to try and I was thristy, so I grabed a " Silk Alive Smoothie" And drank like a 13rd of it. tasted like flavored chalk... But I am gassy/etc just like I was the other day after drinking that milk+lactait pills+hersy's carmel syrup. :o

I tripple check the silk ingredinents.. nothing there supicius... unless SOY is my issue? I did not react to soy in the scratch tests. UGH why cant this be simple. :(

I didn't react to soy in the scratch test, either. But I can not tolerate soy. Makes me bloat, and gives me terrible cramping, gas and D. I can do soy oil and lecithan in relatively small amounts. I believe that's because the proteins are not in the oil. It's not unusual for us to become sensitive to other things once we're gluten-free for a while. Or, the additional intolerance becomes more evident once the gluten is out.

:( bummer

I'm intolerant to dairy, gluten and soy. For the longest time I insisted on drinking the occasional soy latte, but finally had to accept the fact that I just cannot do it.

It is my understanding that casein and soy protein can both cause gluten-like reactions due to their similarities in structure to gluten. You might drive yourself crazy trying to find some sort of test that will give you the answers.

It can't hurt to eliminate all three for atleast a little while and see if it makes a difference. Then reintroduce soy and dairy, one at a time, and you'll probably have your answer.

(sorry I know it's a pain - literally)

Sorry if you've mentioned this before, but how long have you been 100% gluten free? Maybe you just need more time to heal before you can tolerate certain foods. The enzymes that break down lactose, sucrose, and maltose and located in the villi and when the villi are damaged, lactose, sucrose, and maltose may not be broken down well if at all, causing problems. Silk would have a lot of sugar in it and obviously milk has lactose. Just something to consider.

Carrie,

I thought about that, but a recent endoscopy could not find any damage at all. So that should mean most of my little vila are okay. Does not mean no damage, of course, but even my iron levels are working back up so some signifigant healing must have been done.

The other thing is the villa are in the instestine, the reactions were imediate, so the milk/etc was still in the stomache.

This reaction is ALOT less then the cup of milk. I mean other a little pain and gass Im fine. Its litterly the only thing besides water I have had in hours though so it has to be the silk.

As for avioding soy for a while.. I almost never have soy to start with. I just plain do not like the taste of it. I do not realy look hard for it so I am sure some gets by occasionaly. I only tried the soy drink as to not contimate the milk test I wanted to try. heh so much for that plan!

I just dont know any more. I do have Alomnd Mlik and Rice Milk to use in my cearel at least. Almond taste better then soy, but little to nutty for me, hopeully the rice be better....

Since you did have an endoscopy and the villi appeared to be ok, I would guess that they are digesting lactose, sucrose, and maltose. You may have an intolerance or be allergic to soy. Have you considered getting an allergy blood test done? I had one allergy blood test about a month ago and it tested for about 30 different foods including soy, milk, wheat, eggs, nuts, ect.

I'm not sure if you can get these in the US, but they are soy, gluten, and dairy free.

You could make your own almond milk if you can tolerate nuts. There's a ton of recipes on the Internet just search for "nut milk recipe" and you should be able to find them. They're really easy to make too.

I have, and my son meets with our alergy doc next firday, I plan to ask him. Only seen him once or twice, but seems like a nice knowledgable guy so far.

Scratch tests only tell part of the story. For reactions other than IgE, you need a blood test. What you are describing is indicative of an allergy, just not an anaphylactic one. Ask your doctor to do a blood test for allergies.

We are going cause I am hoping htat my son has out grown his egg allergy for Easter :D but that wont stop me from asking about a blood test and if they will do it I'll just schedual it. I guess thats the only way I will get any real answers.

ODD! I had TWO big mugs of hot cocoa today using real cocoa, raw sugar, and lactaid fat free milk...

I do not feel any worse then before drinking it....

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions to it, so different for everyone.

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗

      I agree there I've tryed this myself to prove I can't eat gluten or lactose and it sets me back for about a month till I have to go back to being very strict to settle again

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
