I didn't know I was intolerant to soy until I received the Enterolab results saying I was. Going off the soy I noticed some symptoms clearing up. Still, I sometimes have problems, leading me to think there may be other things I cannot tolerate.

I noticed the soy-type symptoms after having a gluten-free pasta with lupin flour in it. Since that is another legume, I apparently react to more than one.

So, I cut out peanuts and I was feeling better. Yesterday I challenged. (Sounds better than I saw this spicy peanut butter in my fridge & I was hungry & really had no proof I can't tolerate peanuts.) Now I'm having soy-type symptoms.

I was just hoping to get a sense of how common it is to react to both foods.

Eating vegan, I have other legumes quite frequently but I haven't noticed the same problem.

I react to soy but not to peanuts (it wouldn't let me vote unless I answered the second question too, but I didn't really have an answer for that question...) I don't eat peanut butter very often though and I don't know if my reaction to soy is an allergy or an intolerance (I actually suspect both but I can't say for sure...)

I'm intolerant to all legumes--soy, peanuts, string beans, all of them.

My reactions are the same: cramping that starts under my ribs and squeezes it's way down. I also get reflux from legumes--I had terrible reflux before going legume free. Now, I very rarely get it.

My first poll -- I've fixed it (I think). Thanks for letting me know.

Daughter is allergic to both peanuts and soy. Not sure which one causes a stronger reaction in her. She ate part of a cracker with soy in it and was doubled over in pain before she had even finished the cracker. So that was a pretty strong reaction. Normally soybean oil and peanut oil cause her to have nosebleeds. She seems to be able to handle soy lecithin on occasion without problems.

I've got the same problems as Patti. I'm intolerant to all legumes, including soy and peanuts.

      Get tested for vitamin deficiencies.  Though neuropathy can be a symptom of celiac, it can also be caused by deficiencies due to poor digestion caused by celiac and could be easier to treat.

      Thank you so much for your response  Yes it seems as though things get very painful as time goes on.  I'm not eating gluten as far as I know.  However, I'm not sure of cross contamination.  My system seems to weaken to hidden spices and other possibilities. ???  if cross contamination is possible...I am in a super sensitive mode of celiac disease.. Neuropathy from head to toes

This could be malpratice siit but im not good at finding lawyers

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.
