Apparently I can't add a web address but you may google the solanine foods to get the list.

Just found that solanine in the nightshade family is a HUGE contributor to inflammation/joint pain. I googled "solanine" and now know that we need to get rid of these items in our diet: the usual nightshades, but in addition, some of our favorites for our juices which are blueberries and apples, both contain solanine. Here is a site and there are...

Yes, Lyme was done recently for the second time. I heard from K's family doctor, she has now had each of the following tests twice with all results coming back negative: Sed Rate, Lyme, Strep, ANA, CRP, Arthritis. She also had a low count of "3" for Celiac, her thyroid was fine and Vitamin D which was only marginally low. To me, a food allergy...

Hi! We are three days into the Elimination Diet now. I have a question, our daughter is not feeling any better with her joint pain. However, she is not feeling any worse either. It was my belief that with the Elimination Diet, as your body rids itself of toxins, you would feel really crummy. Is this not always the case? All we are eating is organic...

Thank you, Janspell, (I actually fist pumped the air after reading what you wrote)! I will most certainly go as hard core elimination as we can. What have we got to lose? After three months with daily pain, last night was the first night I saw sadness and defeat in her. She cried many tears. But I had for her the responses and successes of all you...

I just found this information and see that there is a blog as well on sudden onset joint pain. Should anyone be wanting to check into migratory joint pain. Open Original Shared Link

You put a smile on my face, I feel like you lovely girls are holding my hand and helping me walk through this issue which has caused me such deep sadness. It has been so hard watching K suffer as she has. We have no answers yet from physicians and the three medicines tried thus far have helped her pain so very little. I now have so many avenues to...

Emilykay405, you are a sweetheart. I will look into all the bloodwork done so far on K. I will see where there are gaps and request that those tests be run on her. K's vitamin D was border-line low as well. She is taking a fish oil with 1000 mg Vitamin D once a day. We could recheck that level when we repeat blood labs too. It was wonderful to...

Oh janpell, you have brought me such joy! Hopefully this will be the same result for our daughter (K). I don't know what you mean by an elimination diet though. Is there somewhere I can research this? Did you too only have the joint pain or other troubles as well? After seeing the rheumatologist, because my mother and uncles have psoriasis, the...

emilykay405, thank you for the information. I have the results of two blood draws that were done on our daughter (K), on different dates. In addition to other tests, she has had: ANA w/Reflex (ANA Direct) with a "negative" result Yesterday Nicole gave me the full line-up for Celiac testing. Unfortunately, K, was only tested for Antibody, IGA tTG....

Thank you so much for your reply to my question. I had never heard of RSD and have spent hours and hours so far researching joint pains and swelling. You have shown me that there are things out there that I still need to check into. It is wonderful that your niece is out of the wheelchair, that is truly something worth celebrating! I am also going to...

Oh thank you, Nicole, I can't wait to share your story with our sweet girl. It may give her hope. She has an ice pack on her knee at this moment and a heating pad on her back. Three months is a long time to suffer with pain every single day and not know what is going on. I will check into all the tests she has had thus far. Your information was so specific...

Hi everyone, I am writing in hopes of getting some direction in regards to our daughter. Three months ago this week she began experiencing sudden onset joint pain in her shoulders and hips. The pain was so bad it would wake her up at night. Since then it has spread to other joints, . . . the knees (which also get warm and swollen), back, ankles, heels...
