Diet, B12 Injections = Feeling better
Hi Friends - It has been years since I have come to this site, and it is comforting and a bit sad at the same time to see so many of you suffering all these years. I am going on my 12th year with small fiber PN and for many years it was idiopathic - after DEMANDING a glucose tolerance test the doctors finally say "Oh, maybe we have something here". Being labeled pre-diabetic or more accurately having impaired glucose issues was my new cause. JUST because your A1c blood sugar test comes back in the NORMAL range - doesn't mean anything. So I went on and had food sensitivity testing done and found out lots of things. First - I was HIGHLY sensitive to eggs, and eliminating eggs alone caused one of my types of pain to leave!! Then the gluten, sugar and a few other things in wheat were pretty high in reactions too. When I eat NO SUGAR, my life changes. When I add no gluten, my elimination problems are better too. I know so many of you have found out these same things - and I would encourage anyone who has no "cause" for this horrible pain to have food sensitivity testing done. Also, the B12 issues -- the B12 blood test were always "in range" but not sure I was utilizing them so I had some other testing done at the cell level and found out that I was lacking absorption of vitamin D, and few other nutrients -- SO I am now on a injection each week of B12, B Complex, Calcium and Magnesium - and I feel SO MUCH better especially the first few days after the injection. Any other thoughts on what I can do for the Impaired Glucose? It is hard to figure out what to eat - so I don't eat a big variety of foods. Thanks for being here. Tina
