Question About Blood Work


Generic

Recommended Posts

Generic Apprentice

My dad recently had some blood work done and my mom asked me to do some research for her. He has high folate, high MVC and high "Polys". I found the first 2 but can't find any thing about the POLYS.

I am 100% positive he has celiac and he refuses to admit it or even ask his dr about it. My great grandmother was diagnosed after I was when she was 82, his mom had stomach cancer (most likely celiac also) and he has chronic D.

Plus a whole slew of other problems that I am sure are related. He has diabetes, polymyalgia, a-typical myositis, neuropathy of the feet, a strange unexplained rash plus some other things I can't think of right now.

Any feed back or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
