I have been formally diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and possible Carbohydrate Intolerance. My issue is when I eat a load of carbs, it hits up to 3 days later and I can't hardly get out of bed and am weak most of the day. Everything I read about Carb Intolerance says that fatigue usually hits within the first few hours. Has anyone else experienced this? Carb crash, a day or days after the carbs are eaten?
It could also be gluten intolerance or carbohydrate intolerance or reduced stomach acid. Or possibly your gallbladder. A few more things to consider. Good luck finding answers.
I have also developed an intolerance to lactose and gluten these past two years. I have eliminated all lactose and gluten from my diet. Lactose intake makes my lymph nodes swell. My question is: Syntroid does contain lactose, and it seems that just that little amount prevents me from stopping the swelling, and feeling better. Could I switch to another thyroid medication? Should I continue on Syntroid, and take some digestive enzymes for lactose at the same time?
My partner has been trying to lose weight forever!. When I met him he was about 76 Kilos, 7 years later he is now 82. He is not very tall (5' 6'') so I guess he is about 2 stone over weight. He does not eat very much but unfortunately drinks too much. For a long time I have suspected he is 'glucose intolerant', in that even when he has carbohydrate available he goes shaky and experiences 'low' blood sugar symptoms.
Due to stomach problems, I have decided to try a Specific Carbohydrate Diet. Has anyone experienced relief on this diet?
So basically, this is what I got from it- fresh vegtables, fresh fruits, lean meats, most nuts, NO LACTOSE, NO SUGAR (except in fruits and honey), and NO STARCHES.
Is this about right? Also, what is the policy on yogurt and coconut milk?
Blood- protein levels off, low iron and b12, celiac test just a little off (but not true indicator that I have the disease, I am told).
Colonscopy / endoscopy- biospy for celiac (negative). Found mast cells- h2 allergy cells, which dr said was 'strange'. Said I must just have ibs, and told me to take pepcid for mast cells, but didn't address why I have them.
2nd opinnion- gastroenterolgist said he would have said celiac, but saw biopsy was negative.
m not sure if I need to see an Allergist, ENT, Gastroenterologist, Internist or who because about an hour after eating a carbohydrate I seem to get inflammation and swelling on my right side only...starting in my right sinuses, behind right eye, right ear, right throat, right lymph gland in neck, and going in a straight line down the right side of my chest and down to my right kidney. If I only eat meat, salads, and non starchy vegetables, water and plain tea, I don't have any symptoms.
Could this be an issue since oatmeal is a trigger of too much fiber? Something else to look into is carbohydrate intolerance. https://www.merckmanuals.com/professional/gastrointestinal-disorders/malabsorption-syndromes/carbohydrate-intolerance. However, that would most likely would only be the situation if you have a long standing history since childhood of gi issues. People also can develop an oat allergy as an adult. https://www.healthline.
You could also have some kind of carbohydrate intolerance to the sweeteners used in cola drinks. About quinine being present in colas, I am not sure. But yes, quinine if present can cause allergic reactions.You should consult an allergy specialist and get yourself tested for allergies to ingredients of colas so that you can avoid them in other food stuffs too.
Hope this helps. It is difficult to comment beyond this at this stage.
ve also read that PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome) can mimic high cortisol weight gain. PCOS is associated with carbohydrate intolerance. It's possible the South Beach diet isn't restrictive enough for her. She might need Atkins. But I wouldn't do that diet unless the doctor ok's it because of her type 1 diabetes. Gluten, which is in wheat, barley, rye and possibly oats, might be something for her to eliminate.
gluten, lactose, casein) and there are food allergies. Some people have carbohydrate intolerance. There is yeast overgrowth. Have you been checked for endometriosis? Ovarian cysts? Stress also sets off many people's intestines.
Hang in there! Something will help - medications, stress relief, food elimination. It just takes time waiting for appts and tests to be done. Good luck!
Any other ladies seem to have horrible heat intolerance while pregnant? Im 15wks and being out in the heat makes me feel sick and like I'll pass out, even in short intervals. Never had this before.
I am 37 weeks pregnant and have noticed the last couple weeks anytime I drink milk or eat yogurt ect. That I have horrible cramp like pains that go through tout my stomach and feel a lot of nausea... I have never had issues with dairy before, could this be from the pregnancy? Am I going to be able to go back to dairy when little man is born? Should I go see my Dr about this?
By any chance did you get a gastric bypass—if yes, then this could be due to Dumping’s syndrome. Other than this carbohydrate intolerance and insulin secreting tumors of the pancreas could be a problem. Secondary lactase enzyme deficiency due to celiac sprue, tropical sprue or other intestinal infections too could be a cause.
I would recommend that you check your blood sugar when you feel the tremor start. Additionally, if you are gluten free because of an intolerance or an allergy that is a diet change that you will have to incorporate into your lifestyle. Speaking with a dietician or nutritionist who specializes in gluten free could be helpful in finding alternatives. If you are gluten free as a choice, keep in mind that gluten free does not equal healthy.
When used in larger amounts, as in cooking and baking, these calories and carbohydrate should be accounted for by carbohydrate counting or by using starch/bread exchanges. As an example, one half cup of SPLENDA® Granulated contributes 12 grams of carbohydrates and 11 to 20 grams are counted as one starch exchange.
In SPLENDA® No Calorie Sweetener Packets, sucralose is combined with maltodextrin and dextrose. These ingredients contribute 1 gram of carbohydrate and four calories per packet.
And, it is true, in spite of what you see in the media and from what certain medical doctors will tell you, there are other things that can go wrong from gluten intolerance besides Celiac. Gluten intolerance is responsible for other auto-immune illnesses besides Celiac. The medical community is ill prepared to thoroughly investigate this however.
My own IBS definitely feels better going gluten free. I am not symptom free, but the severity of the symptoms is definitely reduced.
There was a few weeks in my second trimester where I had to switch to soy milk, because I would get an upset stomach if I drank whole milk. Now in my third trimester, my stomach can tolerate milk again. It's just weird, but I'm happy to be able to drink milk again. Dunking chocolate chip cookies in soy milk isn't the same!
