Avatar m tn Furthermore, as a side question and issue, since I was young I have experienced chronic water retention. I wake up in the morning and I look fine, but throughout the day I gradually get more bloated/flabby, and by the end of the evening I have ballooned out, on average 2.5-3" in the abdomen. It is all abdominal, nothing in my ankles, etc. Early on a doc associated it with carbohydrates (I was tested for food allergies and they all came back negative), but it does not look food related.

Avatar f tn Everytime I eat a food that contains any amount of soy, soybean oil, soy sauce, soy lecithin, or hydrogenated soybean oil I will have a seizure. I know that soy is estrogen. It takes about 45 minutes for my body to metablize the soy and cause me to have a seizure. I had a total hysterectomy in 1988 and I have no progesterone in my system. I also think that the soy causes my body to retain fluids, and excess fluids in my body will cause me to have seizures. Is my analysis correct?
10948614 tn?1414173719 I have no symptoms except for extreme fatigue and water retention and some slight swelling on my outer ankle bone. I found out I am gluten intolerant so that means damage and inflammation for the last 45 years but I am gluten-free and almost grain free now. I drink a lot and pee a lot so it is almost like my body is somehow intolerant to water or leaking it through my intestines? Diuretics have never worked and I have no signs of kidney disease.
