Confused More Than Ever - Enterolab Results


jasonhoutx

Recommended Posts

jasonhoutx Newbie

Hi everyone! Newbie to the forums & this new experience.

had stomach trouble most of my life (32 now). diarrhea and GERD. Had upper GI done and found hiatal hernia and barrett's esophagus (crazy dr didn't check for c. sprue). Been on nexium for 3 years and stopped a month ago due to new side effects (aches, very tired) and b12 defficiency.

Decided to be my own MD since my dr doesn't want to listen to me (They herd me out like I am cattle), so I got the full range of test from Enterolab

got my test back today from enterolab and it looks like I am allergic to everything. I am shocked. :o

I have been gluten free for a couple of months and saw great intestinal improvement (no more loose poo). I still had issues after some meals and started cutting out milk and it helped some more. Then i thought soy was a problem, so I cut my jiff penut butter and helmans mayo (both contained soy), that helped more. I am confused now because I tried a beer the other day at the baseball game (Go Astros) and I didn't get a reaction. I then tried whole milk with some rice chex and didn't have a reaction either. How come I was able to handle that? I am so confused!

Boils down to I seem to only be able to eat a few things now and life is bland and boring. I am pissed off now.

can anyone help me understand why I can't eat anything anymore? I am getting a bit depressed over my lack of flavor in eating anymore. Thanks for letting me vent!

You may just have a threshold level for these irritants. 1 beer fine. 3 beers not fine.

I have not eaten soy or dairy for YEARS. I cut out Gluten about 4 months ago. I dont eat yeast and rarely eat eggs and my diet is more exciting and colorful than it ever was. Anything but bland and boring.

Im also not eating grains.

Tonight I had Cumin/Cilantro chicken, mixed veggies and baked plantains for dinner. Delicious!

It is harder if you do not cook, but there are some great places online where you can order food free of all of your intolerant foods and they are delivered to your door. Just heat them up.

Thanks for the reply. I am sure that I can make this work. I love to cook, but guess I am going to learn to do it more often. Any chance you have the links to those internet sites for the delivered foods just in case?

Thanks

There are quite a few of them:

There are likely to be more, hopefully others will chime in. I dont use them. I enjoy cooking and what I make tastes better than anything I get anywhere else including restaurants.

But these could be helpful for "in a pinch".

To hijack for a second.... B)

Shay

How'd you cook the plantains??? Love them, but my African friends make l'aloco (their word for it) FRIED. And while I can eat my fair share, I just can't cook them at home.

Did you put anything on them? How long did you bake them?

Ok... you may resume to your thread again. :lol::lol:

And to the OP... I wish I had a website for you, but Shay pretty much summed it up. Veggies add LOTS of color, and spices add the flavor. I eat better now than I ever have, and I don't do dairy or gluten, and I'm allergic to eggs.

      From their website I see "organic barley leaf powder" as an ingredient. Keep in mind that the gluten is in the kernel, and not in the leaves. https://drinkag1.com/about-ag1/ingredients/ctr

      Before the rise of social media we were well known by a lot of doctors and were recommended by many, especially our Safe & Forbidden Lists, but as doctors get younger and younger this is probably not happening as much as before.

      Thanks Scott I will definitely check my vitamins and minerals to see what I am missing so then I can supplement. I was very concern about my Meniers syntoms and i tryed to find some alive. Now im just realizing that my celiac is provably the root cause of my Meniers none of the 12 doctors I saw told me anything about this.  This web site is so helpful, thanks to people like you we can get answers.

      Vitamin D deficiency can contribute to rib pain. Chest pain stemming from the ribs ccould be costochondritis, which involves inflammation of the cartilage connecting the ribs to the breastbone. This pain can range from mild to severe, potentially mimicking heart attack symptoms, and is often worsened by breathing or movement. Other potential causes include muscle strain, rib fractures, or even referred pain from other conditions.  It will also help to chose vegetables low in omega 6.
