Hi Billye!

I had asked you if you eat foods that might have proteins from these foods:

corn (even corn syrup, etc. may have some stray residual corn proteins in it),

milk products (casein, whey & other milk proteins are found in cheese, ice cream, milk product substitutes, pizza cheese, cheesecake, etc.)

soy products

yeast-y foods

eggs,

and you wrote:

"I looked at the items you listed above and if I cut them out, it will pretty much eliminate most of what I can eat."

I know that it has to be frustrating to even consider possibly being sensitive to your favorite foods, especially when your diet is so limited as it is! So disregard the following questions (and hit me with an organic carrot), if it's too much of a hassle, at this time:

Are you a vegetarian? If not, can you eat any meats, fish, fowl?

Can you eat any beans (like lentils, etc.)?

Nuts of any kind?

Vegetables?

Fruits?

Seeds? (sesame, sunflower, pumpkin, etc.)

You might be interested in reading about the very basic cave person type diet that Dr. Kenneth Fine eats (he's a gluten-free, milk-free vegan), that is free of all grains, all milk products, etc. See his website, at http://www.finerhealth.com

I mention all this, just in case you may be sensitive to proteins in corn, soy, milk products, yeast, eggs, etc., which you are still eating.

EnteroLab does some stool sample testing, for possible sensitivities to proteins in some of those foods.
