  1. seriously how bout some of that feedback?
  2. Could be other foods too, not necessarily gluten. im finding that even w/o gluten i still have other food sensitivities
  3. I was diagnosed with mild leaky gut a year ago and have been gluten-free since and cut out other foods that I tested allergic to. Thing is i was only tested for 100 foods and am sure im probly allergic to stuff im eating on a routine basis & maybe even developed new allergies to stuff I tested negative for. anyway, i realize its impossible to eliminate...
  4. thank you for your advice...very much appreciated :-)
  5. So which carbs would i need to avoid...potatoes? yams? Can i still eat brown rice and quinoa? also from an IBS standpoint you need to balance each meal with insoluble fiber, which is present in rice and potatoes. i rely on this mostly since fiber supplements bloat me up as for eggs i tested severely allergic to them and only eat on occasion..they dont...
  6. my farmers market has a bunch of different grain flours...i was gonna buy some quinoa flour and corn flour but i wasnt sure if they were gluten free and no one could give me a straight answer there cause they dont speak english or just dont understand me. all the flours are packed in plastic containers. think they are ok?
  7. I can't eat nuts cause they constipate me and i try to not eat too much fish cause of heavy metals..usually limit myself to 1-2 servings per week. maybe ill try to reduce my carb intake, but i dont think i can eliminate them completely...i know my body....i will start loosing weight and i hate being thin
  8. Yeah I feel i might be deficient in vitamins, but any type of supplement really gives me problems...even in liquid form. right now i get my vitamins from my diet and since i am lactose intolerant i get my calcium and Vit D from fortified rice milk. As for the SCD diet, there is just no way I can cut out carbs...im already too think and lost weight after...
  9. How am I supposed to heal my insides if im sensitive to every single supplement/herb i take? certain foods give me pressure headaches, fatigue and heart palpitations...usually spices, fermented foods, preservatives, citrus and other things. the problems is that I get the same reaction when i take most supplements. i just started taking George's aloe juice...
  10. I was taking aloe whole leaf supplements on and off for a year, which really helped with my constipation but i discontinued since i discovered that the supplements contained the laxatives and irritants. i am still concerned that it may have caused damage and made my gut even more sensitive than it already is, but hopefully not.
  11. anyone use Georges Aloe juice? im reluctant to take aloe since i heard its unsafe but also heard a lot of good things as well
  12. Wasnt Georges..Its Lakewood which contains the gel..the latex I believe is from the skin. I'll try the Georges and see if it helps
  13. tried Aloe juice....doesnt agree with me
  14. I have a rather unfortunate predicament - not only do I have IBS, gluten-intolerance and multiple food sensitivities, but I also have urinary problems and if one ailment gets aggravated so does the other...and If I try to treat one ailment, the other one suffers. Its a vicious cycle and its seems like theres just no hope. I used to take supplements to...
  15. Can anyone suggest restaurants in Rockville, MD??
  16. Now we have a lunch lined up as well...at a "cheeseburger place"..all the customers love this place and its already set in stone so i cant change it. do i just not eat at lunch? will that make me look weird?
  17. My thyroid #'s were a bit low, however, when i tried to take thyroid med (a natural form) it made my constipation even worse.
  18. sorry i know this is graphic....After I went gluten-free and eliminated other foods I became regular again for a year. now for some reason im back to where I was. i thought eliminating the allergic foods would resolve everything..I was so hopeful everything was starting to get better. Am i developing new allergies? i just cant seem to have a normal BM...
  19. I have a business dinner with a group of clients next week. The area has a PF changs, outback and a few other places that have gluten-free options. PF changs is always a safe haven for me but since i am taking clients out i feel like i have to let them decide where to eat. i really dont wanna make a big deal out of my food restrictions so would it be ok...
  20. Thanks Jennifer! I had the Celiac test back in 02 right after I got sick and it was negative. This past year i got the genetic test and found out I have one of the genes. I don't plan on getting tested cause I dont wanna eat gluten for a month (or longer) and make myself sick again. I'm just gonna do the best I can to avoid gluten, but its tough cause...
  21. thanks- don't know if I have celiac for sure but the culmination of stress and everything else overburdened my system and caused the problems. its hard but im trying to get over her
  22. Everything that caused my problems today started with a bad relationship 6 yrs ago. Had a prostate infection and was on a 5 month course of antibiotics...then contracted Giardia..became lactose intolerant and developed IBS. Now i have multiple food allergies & chronic constipation. I spent a fortune on naturopathic doctors, acupuncture, supplements...
  23. A big problem is that things that should help me stay regular dont work at all. fiber, prune juice, sweet potatoes, increasing water, etc...they do nothing but bloat me up and make me constipated. its not like a situation with a healthy person who gets constipated..they just have some raisin bran or prunje juice and it cleans them out. Nothing works for...
  24. Good advice- unfortunately i'm programmed to stress out about everything and when i'm actually feeling happy I stress out cause i have nothing to stress out about - lol I am definitely considering therapy and maybe even meds just to normalize my emotions a bit
  25. I am so clueless. I had an extensive GI panel done but I dont think they measured fat, protein or carb residues in my stool. only thing noteworthy was that i had some minor bacterial overgrowth and a trace amount of candida, but everything else was in the normal range. my total stool IgA was normal and pancreatic function was normal. I must confess that...
