I have been going to a new dr, who is an osteopath. Last week he ordered a bunch of blood work because I have been having a lot of pain in my hands and my heart rate is elevated. I got the results today. Everything was within normal range, except:

Liver:

Alkaline Phos. 120 (normal 30-115)

SGPT (ALT) 69 (normal 0-29)

Sed Rate 47 (normal 0-20); Less than a yr ago, it was around 27

Urine:

Appearance: Cloudy (normal clear)

Blood: 1+ (normal negative)

RBC 10-19 (normal 0-2)

WBC 3-9 (normal 0-2)

Mucous: Few (normal none)

Amorph Crystals: Mod (normal none)

He told me that I was fine, and there was nothing else he could do for me. He said I needed to eat better, and he recommended I go on a Mediterranean Diet <_< . He started to order some further heart testing, but decided not to because I had an ECHO done a few months ago and it was normal. He said my liver enzymes were probably off because I might have a "Fatty Liver."

My RA factor was negative, my cholesterol was great, Electrolytes and kidney were normal.

ANyone have any ideas?? I am goiong to call the rheumatoligist tomorrow that I saw a few months ago. I am just lost now. I think I will find a new dr, again. :angry:

      A Future Beyond the Gluten-Free Diet? Scientists Test a New Cell Therapy for Celiac Disease (+Video)

      I got Celiac disease in 2023 when I had covid. Within a week, food was bothering my stomach. I started eating non gluten food but had a journey learning. I know do not go to restaurants or fast food, I was told I cant eat red meat. I have an appointment in May to get a question on why no red meat. I eat ground turkey or chicken, frozen vegetables instead...

      Mallorca Guide

      You already got some great recommendations. Just want to second that Mallorca (and Spain in general) is one of the best and easiest places for celiacs to travel. I have been to Mallorca multiple times and have never experienced any cross contaminations and there are SO many easy to buy options in regular supermarkets. Hope you have a wonderful trip.

      Severe severe mouth pain

      I agree. If someone has Barrett's Esophagus, at least here in the UK, as I understand it under normal circumstances a PPI needs to be taken long term (or similar medication). I have two friends with this. The PPI it does have side effects but they still have to take it.

      Do talk to your doctor about making changes to your medication.    I'm not a medical doctor.   I'm a microbiologist.  I studied nutrition before switching to microbiology because I was curious what vitamins were doing inside the body. I would hate to give advice that jeopardizes your health, so do discuss things with your doctor.

      New issue

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Jmartes71, Sorry you've been feeling so poorly.   Are you taking any medication to treat the SIBO?   Are you taking any Benfotiamine?  Benfotiamine will help get control of the SIBO.  Thiamine deficiency has symptoms in common with MS. Have you had your gas appliances checked for gas leaks and exhaust fume leaks?  Carbon Monoxide poisoning can cause the same symptoms as the flu and glutening.  Doctors have to check venous blood (not arterial) for carbon monoxide.  Are other inhabitants sick, or just you?  Do they leave the house and get fresh air which relieves their symptoms?
