Found Someone Else To Talk To About My 'issues'

I was gonna post this yesterday, just didnt have the time. Mom called me yesterday to remind me that on Saturday, her and dad went over to my uncles for supper/watch hockey (I was studying, only reason I didnt go)...um well I guess Uncle was asking about me, and mom was telling him that I'm still in such bad pain and docs cant figure it out..

So I guess he gave the phone number and email address of my Aunty (who happens to be a nurse!!) so that I can call her and talk to her about it :) That'll be so awesome! Obviously i'll trust the opinion of her more than any other doc right now (I dont know her very well--rarely even see her--but shes still technically family since shes the mother of my cousins :lol: )

I told mom give me the #/email this weekend--dont have time right now lol

I'll let you guys know when I talk to her!

      A lot of people erroneously think soy is a problem for people needing to be on a gluten-free diet. Trents' comment above speaks to some celiacs also having a sensitivity to soy, but this is just some of them.  However, soy sauce is something anyone following a gluten-free diet should be wary of. Many soy sauces contain wheat, which is where the soy/gluten confusion comes into play. There is gluten-free soy sauce available, just read labels to be sure. I use San-J Tamari, which is gluten-free but does contain soy, in place of regular soy sauce.

      I have many of those same CMP irregularities from time to time, with the exception that my potassium is always normal. What I can tell you is that it is normal for everything not to be normal when you get a CMP done. I used to get a CBC and CMP done annually and there were always some things out of spec. Docs don't get excited about it for the most part. It depends on the particular parameter (some are more important than others) and it depends on how far out of range it is. Docs also look for trends over time as opposed to isolated snapshots of this or that being out of spec at any given time. Our body chemistry is a dynamic entity.

      Not sure what you mean by "soy being like gluten". Soy does not cause a celiac reaction. However, soy is one of the foods that many celiacs don't tolerate well for other reasons. Eggs, corn and dairy are also on that list of foods that many of those with celiac disease seem to be sensitive to. But that doesn't mean that all celiacs are sensitive to any one of them or all of them. It just means it's common. You may not have a problem with soy at all. Celiac disease is not a food allergy. It is an autoimmune response to the ingestion of gluten that creates inflammation in the small bowel lining that, over time, damages that lining.
