Vincent -- I did see your reply, a few years ago we had a child psychologist refer us to a psychiatrist after she had several sessions with Blake (DS) and they both decided it was what they called a mixed type ADHD with a bit of ODD thrown on top. We explored other avenues as well, but they did not think he was Autistic. (He is my step-son however, and Dr. decided to also reduce gluten intake as I was already on Celiac food intake) and see if it made a difference in his temper (as it does for me).

Donna,

What list are you following? All the lists I seen show plums as being high in histamine. :huh:

It was from one of the websites that Julie (I think) posted about 20-30 pages ago, lol. I'm sorry to say that I didn't check out any of the sites you mentioned (you did mention some didn't you...talk about brain farts, lol) when you mentioned them and then I couldn't find them in this novel sized thread. :ph34r::lol:

Hmmm....I'm just sitting here drinking my water for the test and all of a sudden for no apparant reason my head is swelling and not feeling too good. I've been drinking Aquafina after all the talk about water challenges and right now I didnt have enough so drank 2 bottles Aquafina and once I switched to Arrowhead for my 3rd bottle I'm noticeably reacting to the Arrowhead. It doesnt taste as good either. I think Arrowhead's water is "dirty". <_<

Oh NO!!! You haven't had the alien baby scan yet have you? Hopefully the alien baby won't notice the dirty water!

We bought arrowhead last time and I got a headache too, but I didn't put it totally together. I think my hubby wound up pouring it out and getting me our filtered water. We buy bottled water when we need a clean bottle.

We have military healthcare also and my DH and I were wondering how they can come up with a diagnosis based on two or three sessions with the kids. Our daughter was referred by her first grade teacher because she thought DD had ADD. The psychiatrist thought she was on the cusp of Asperger's and had ADHD and depression. I think that she might, but how do they know when they don't know her. Do you wonder this? They aren't treating the ADHD so to speak. They're trying to work on her behavior. We're thinking of getting a second opinion, but I don't know. Any thoughts ya'll?

Yea, Cissie! You just described my childhood summers :D We had a vine, too! It was on the hillside grounds of our school (that was just up the street). We would give a running start, and swing in a great big circle where we would be way out above the hill! We played jumprope, hopscotch and hide and go seek. Other than bikes, we had not much except our imaginations--but we always had something to do. (and knew what not to tell our mothers!) My favorite "alone time" thing to do was to climb up in our backyard tree and read. I was a bit of a daydreamer, so I did a lot of that, too. Good times :D

My boys grew up in the 80's--they were welcomed to play any sports/attend any clubs that they wanted. It was their decision--my oldest played league bowling (and still does to this day at 25) and baseball (which he loves). My youngest was not into sports at all, and that was fine, too. He has other interests. I did my best to let them be kids and not have every minute spoken for. They are now both hardworking young men who also have hobbies--a good, healthy mix, in my opinion!

Hooray for "alone time!" I climbed a wild cherry tree and swung onto the garage roof (flat with slight slope) for my private time. Sometimes I read, and sometimes I just daydreamed. I learned to swing on vines the summer I was twelve. We drove across the state to East Tennessee, and spent a couple of months with mother's fourth cousin thrice removed, Lula, and her husband. Daddy had to return to work in Memphis after two weeks, but it took two months for him to save enough gas coupons to come back for us. What a glorious summer that was! :D:D:D

My children grew up in the 50's and 60's, and had the same freedom to decide that you gave your sons. I confess that I started them on the road to independent thinking by refusing to allow them to have coloring books. Instead, they colored, drew, and painted on blank sheets of paper. (I was always a rebel.) My theory was that the world would soon enough make them "color in the lines," and I wanted to root them in the freedom to say, "Not if I don't want to!" They're middle-aged now, and I'm so proud of the choices they've made and the people they've become!

I got a headache trying out the spring water too, I guess that makes three of us...and I didn't think it tasted right. :blink:

Rachel, I figured you read labels but wanted to mention it just in case. I was shocked to see carageenan on some brands of milk and cream ingredient lists. Another shake my head moment, they don't have to put that crap in there.

The list Donna is referring to, I bet it is that guy/girls food plan for a low histamine/low salt diet that the nutrtionist made up for him/her. It has a lot of fruits listed that you and I were questioning.

Donna, I have eaten some fruits that were listed on some websites as fruits to avoid and then on other websites as fruits that are allowed (i.e. nectarines and peaches, and I did fine with them). I think there is some questions as to what is correct. For the most part all of the lists have several things that are the same, bananas, pineapple, citrus, avocados, wine, fermented products, deli meat, fish, cheese, chocolate, tomato products, etc. and I am staying away from those major offenders that contain naturally occuring histamine or that cause a release of histamine from the mast cells.

I have a new love, sprouted corn tortillas from Fodd For Life. Omg they are good. Ummmm! :lol:

That's the site. I still do eat some of those things you listed, but fortunately not everyday...I think I'll try without them all for a few weeks and see what difference that makes. I'll have to look for those tortillas. :)

ADHD/AS is a very serious issue, I ALWAYS recomend at least two independent opinions. And try not to tell the second opinion anything the first one said so not to predjuice the decsion.

Stephanie,

I love the picture of your kitty.

I haven't checked weather forecasts....any sign of a let up soon?

Thanks! I love my kitty (Benny)... we're having a sort of tragedy here in that the city is taking over the Humane Society - turning it over to the Police Department - and they are going to ship out or euthanize all the pets already there, then no longer have adoptions, only have strays which they'll keep 5 days, then put them down (unless claimed). This makes me very angry - my cat (in the pic) is from the Humane Society, so I see him now as a symbol of what the city is rejecting and I'm pissed.

Of course the heat isn't helping, but it is only 101 today which feels like winter, practically!

Wow, this is a monster thread. It was only in the 90's when I saw it about a week ago, now it's 235 or something???? Never seen the likes of it. :)

Gee, I'm sorry that you all are reacting badly to spring water. I was just the opposite! Since I started drinking it exclusively, I've been better. Is the Arrowhead water a spring water or a filtered water? I know that some bottled waters are filtered tap water--I trust the source of Poland Spring, so I stick with that. I guess we all have different tolerances in that department, too :)

Stephanie,

That is very irritating of the city. I frequently adopted cats, unfortunately had to take some back because my children weren't treating them very nice. They were too nice to ruin and I figured they'd find another good home. The shelter here is very proactive about adoptions.

We like to gab on this thread. :lol:

Darn....I wish I could try those!! I dont think they're organic though...I'm eating alot of corn tortillas but only organic. They probably arent as tasty as what you're eating. <_<

My ultrasound was uneventful...I feel like the alien baby was "awakened" before my appt. though. Well see what the report says. They are gonna compare to the ultrasound from a month or two ago and get back to me.

Julie, do you react to the high histamine foods? My worst reactions ever have been to foods on the really high list. Red wine (one of the worst I've ever had), yogurt, soy yogurt, saurkraut ( only one small bite...major reaction), cheese, pineapple, banana, soymilk, beer, citrus, avocados, those are some of the ones that really affect me. Fermented stuff gives me the worst reaction of all though.

I wonder if anyone knows the answer to this. I react very badly to ghee. I could never figure out why cuz it was organic and casein free yet it would get me really sick. Now I'm wondering how ghee is different from regular butters....is it fermented or anything like that? :unsure:

Rach, yea infact take the vanilla out, and make it all whipping cream and thats my unflavored icrecream base. Cep I will oftne use less sugar/no sugar when using fruits....

Camille'sBigSister Newbie

I'm really confused about the histamine diet. What to eat and what not to eat? :unsure: Y'all know a bit about my family's history with allergies. Doesn't that indicate that we're overloaded with histamine? And then there's the adrenal thing that was brought into the equation.

What is cortisol? Do you need a prescription for it? I want to try it out on myself, along with the histamine diet, so I can tell my sisters, et al, something positive to try.

I just know sugar is one of the keys for me, but I'm just so darned addicted! Fortunately I like fruit and honey (wonder if Agave is okay) and real maple syrup.

Hoping, hoping, hoping. :lol:

Donna: Thanks so much for your "book report", I printed that off. Lots of information I can use there and seems when I try to read a book or?? I find myself later waking up from a nap, as if that is what I intended or what I needed?? I am also glad for the 'sugar quote', have been using more maple syup & stevia even if having problem liking the stevia, leaves me with an aftertaste if use too much. It is very sweet!! What is agave?

Rachel: hope you get your ice cream recipe worked so you can eat it without being sick at all. Nothing like ice ceam to sooth the tongue !! :)

Has anyone heard from Megan since mid am? She was having a fever then, sounded to me like was un usual time for that. Fevers usually go up toward evening.

Good you are taking your dingo dogs for walks every day, they are big enuf am sure they need the exercise.

We had big dogs, small dogs and in between size dogs. For several years no DOGS. Our neighbors in all directions make up for that. Most have from 2 to 5 each household. Nothing like hound dogs to bay at the full moon or ?? or 00. Just keep the house shut up!! :angry: Our town coucil is far too wishy washy for me, but I am too lazy to go to monthly meetings & protest. :blink:

Of course in Rville we will have NO problems like that am sure. Been away from home much today, hi to all of you!! :):) evie

Julie and Donna -thank you so much for the information tonight. I was bummed to hear about sauerkraut-was going to try the fresh to get some of the healthy bacteria rinne had posted about yesterday. Are you bothered by it, rinne?

Rachel-are sweet potatoes still a problem for you? Are they high histamine? I had a bad time of it yesterday and thought it was iced tea, but maybe sweet potatoes? Probably both.

Today I was trying to get lunch together and was so frustrated because I am afraid to eat anything. I got so frustrated I had a little "moment" :( .

MEGAN UPDATE MEGAN UPDATE

Sorry that I haven't written more today, but I had more time to spend with Cole and did that instead. I'll try to do better.

Megan has had a good day. She got all 3 chest tubes out today. She's still very alert, but no smiles yet. She's on oxygen for now to keep her oxygen saturations up, but that shouldn't be for much longer. Her fever is staying between 99-102. We're keeping a close eye on it. Still no signs of infection. One doctor thinks it may just be a delayed response to being on the bypass machine. She's doing so well otherwise, but she's still going to be in PCCU for at least tonight.

She's tolerating her feeds well and at the same rate as before surgery. She is still gagging some, but maybe not quite as bad, which is good. At least we can address the GI issues once we get all of this behind us.

Her swelling is much better tonight and she's looking much more like herself. Her beautiful eyes are watching everything that goes on, even though she's lying quietly. She doesn't feel like moving much, but she's still a "Nosey Rosey".

Thanks again for all the prayers. It really is miraculous how good she looks after going through so much. Just keep praying for the fever to go down. God Bless!

jenyanderson Newbie

Thanks Vincent. When I gat a chance to sit down with my husband, I'll talk to him about getting a second opinion. We weren't sure on what to do because this is new ground for us. I found out I had AS when my DD got diagnosed and the Dr. said that it wasn't DX-able when I was young enough (?). I value your opinion on the subject. Thanks again.

Hi Cecilia ;)

Julie-

what is the website with the histamine lists?

Those tortillas are really good. I have some in my freezer right now but have been avoiding corn I am thinking to give them a try again though.I don't really think corn was a big problem for me as I have been avoinding it and still really sick.

Question - if your boiling water for cooking or something do you use bottled water or tapped?

Are you feeling better today. I wish I could say I was but I am still in a really bad place. I can;t believe what a strong reaction I am having - it had to have been the cucumber- Hoe is this possible?

Rachel, the tortillas are organic! I'm looking at my package right now. Made with Organic Grains, sprouted organic corn. They are so good :D I just steamed a couple and put some shredded chicken on them that I had cooked in the crock pit with sea salt, cumin, and garlic, and rolled them up.

I always use my filtered water to cook with.

So sorry to hear you are in a bad place. :( I hope you feel better soon.

oh, ghee is butter with the milk solids removed, so its the fat part that is left over. And I guess it is simmered to slowly release all of the moisture so it can be stored for a long time.

I don't think there is fermentation involved at all. Ghee never set well with me, not sure why.

This is the histamine list I am following: (scroll down past the chart to where it reads "Histamine Restricted Diet for Control of Urticaria/Angioedema )

Open Original Shared Link

Another one is: (this is the one Donna and I were discussing, click on the picture to see the list of foods on this diet, though we question some of the fruits, and also the breads aren't obviously allowed because of gluten)

Open Original Shared Link

There are many other histamine lists if you do a search for "histamine restricted diets", or "Low histamine diets"

I am trying out the first one since I have angioedema.

If I'm boiling something, I use tap water. For everything else, for instance mixing up my Vance's, I use the spring water. I never use the filtered water from the fridge anymore. That kept me low-level-sick for months, I can see now.

I am better today, thanks. I can't believe a cucumber made you so sick--and for this long. I'm at a loss there. Hope tomorrow is better :)

      Thanks for sharing, Karen. Certainly a needed reminder what we already knew (and I've posted many times on this forum) but sometimes forget, namely, autoimmune disorders tend to cluster. Where one is found, you can look for others to show up eventually. The thing that is unusual in your son's case is the onset of several of them at such a young age. My sister in law, who is in her early 60's has Crohn's and struggles with constipation so I don't think that is unusual with Crohn's. If nothing else, it's the outcome of not eating much because of the pain. Now that you know what is going on with your son and the Crohn's, we hope he is beginning to improve.
    • Nathan.
      Hi there. My son is turning 16 this month. He had an endoscopy and biopsy to confirm celiac. He went gluten-free and his pain never got any better. I think it got worse. Months went by. The pain started around 7th grade. He missed a lot of school in 8th grade, and a whole lot in 9th grade. He couldn't go to school in 10th grade. All along the gastroenterologist prescribed Hyoscyamine, didn't help at all. Cyproheptadine, no less pain. Peppermint oil, ginger, Miralax, Senna. Doc said he was constipated, but I couldn't get him to have Miralax daily. Eventually he went on Linzess and no senna or Miralax. Sorry this is long, there will be a point.  We gave his school not just a doctors not, but everything, and U of M makes a lot of notes. They still turned us in for Truancy.  I didn't get him enrolled in online school fast enough.  The school would not recommend an online school and i didn't know which one to choose.  Doc thought it was nerve pain and mental. He recommended the u of m my pain program.  Nathan did so good, 3 days a week supposed to be for 4 weeks.  Never missed, always on time.   After two weeks, they discharged him. Said it was not  benefitting him.  Pain went on. I had been asking if there were any other test they could do. Ultrasound, colonoscopy. Doc said we can do it, but I don't think we'll find anything.  Finally he had a colonoscopy and another endoscopy.  Guess what, they did find something. They found a ton of tiny ulcers everywhere, from the esophagus to his rectum. They think Crohn's. I understand they didn't check for that because he was more constipated, not much diarrhea. He is getting an MRI with contrast on Sunday. Also they want him to do a cal-protectin (give a poop sample). Then an appointment on the 16th to talk about treatment. Then the probation officer on the 17th. In the meantime he is taking Budesonide extended release.  $276.00 for 30 pills, and that's with insurance. Also he was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism, Graves disease a few months ago. If it is for sure Crohn's,  it will be three autoimmune diseases. If someone is gluten-free for a month or more, and the pain is no better, don't stop looking. I was beside myself. Did they think he was exaggerating, lying? I was considering taking him to a holistic doctor, who would probably recommend Peppermint oil and ginger.  He's such a good kid. Kind of an introvert. He was on the 9th grade soccer team. He would try to go to practice and kept having to stop, the pain was that bad. Every time he ate, it didn't matter what, gluten-free chicken tenders, mac and cheese, pizza, ice cream, all gluten-free, he would eat a normal amount but stop and say, I can't eat anymore, my stomach hurts.  If anyone reads all this, thank you. I had a gut feeling, no pun intended, that he had an additional problem. They found celiac and stopped looking. If you don't feel better, keep on your doctor to check further, keep looking.   Take care, Karen

      I think it takes different people different amounts of time, but in my own case I had pain,  bloating and loose stools for some time, exacerbated by a lactose intolerance, which eventually went.  I would say the really bad diarrhea got better quite quickly, but the bloating pain carried on for a few months, until I was told to give up lactose for a few weeks.  That helped enormously and once I realised milk and yoghurt was the cause, after a short break I went back to lactose very gradually and felt a lot better.  Now I can tolerate it well. From Coeliac UK "The enzyme lactase is found in the brush border of the small intestine. This is why people with coeliac disease can be deficient in lactase at diagnosis. Once established on a gluten free diet, the gut is able to heal and lactose digestion returns to normal. Lactose intolerance is therefore usually temporary." So if this helps your daughter, this doesn't mean you have to give up lactose forever, especially as dairy is such a good source of calcium for growing kids.   Bear in mind you should be able to reintroduce it. As for fatigue, this can be due to vitamin and mineral deficiencies,such as iron, vitamin D and B12.  Were these levels tested?  If not, I would suggest you get them done.  If your daughter is deficient in these, it is vital you address the deficiencies, and get the tests redone in a few months, particularly the iron, because too much can be dangerous.

      Hello,   The medication in these inhalers can cause a thiamine deficiency if used by someone already low in thiamine.  We don't absorb sufficient amounts of vitamins and minerals due to the inflammation and damage done to our villi in Celiac Disease.  Even a long term strict gluten free diet may not provide sufficient amounts of vitamins and minerals.  There are eight B vitamins that all work together.  Thiamine deficiency often shows up first because our bodies use so much of it and it can't be stored very long. Thiamine deficiency symptoms can appear in as little as three days.  Without thiamine, the other B vitamins may not be able to function properly.   Thiamine is needed to clear lactic acid accumulation caused by the inhalers: Shoshin beriberi provoked by the inhalation of salbutamol https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12951730/    Significant Lactic Acidosis from Albuterol https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5965110/ Albuterol-Induced Type B Lactic Acidosis: Not an Uncommon Finding https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7263006/ Lessons of the month 1: Salbutamol induced lactic acidosis: clinically recognised but often forgotten https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6964186/ An Overview of Type B Lactic Acidosis Due to Thiamine (B1) Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10731935/   Thiamine has antifungal and antibacterial properties.  Thiamine helps keep Candida in check.  Thiamine helps keep SIBO in check.  Thiamine helps with black mold, Aspergillis infection.  Riboflavin helps fight Candida infection in the mouth. Riboflavin Targets the Cellular Metabolic and Ribosomal Pathways of Candida albicans In Vitro and Exhibits Efficacy against Oropharyngeal Candidiasis https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36625571/   Thiamine deficiency can make ones voice hoarse and can cause localized edema.  Niacin deficiency can make ones voice hoarse.  (Niacin deficiency and Thiamine deficiency can each cause irritability, agitation, and lability.) Hoarseness in pellagra https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21507655/ Hidden Hunger: A Pellagra Case Report https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8152714/   Anesthesia can cause B12 deficiency.  B12 deficiency can show up as mouth sores and geographic tongue, diarrhea, and dementia. Vitamin deficiency, a neglected risk factor for post-anesthesia complications: a systematic review https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11823251/ Neurologic degeneration associated with nitrous oxide anesthesia in patients with vitamin B12 deficiency https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8250714/ Subacute combined degeneration of the spinal cord following nitrous oxide anesthesia: A systematic review of cases https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30144777/ The Effect of Vitamin B12 Infusion on Prevention of Nitrous Oxide-induced Homocysteine Increase: A Double-blind Randomized Controlled Trial https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4052402/     Eating a diet that is heavy in carbohydrates can precipitate a thiamine deficiency.  As the amount of carbohydrates consumed increases, additional thiamine is needed, otherwise the carbs will be stored as fat.   Thiamine deficiency disorders: a clinical perspective https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8451766/   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/   The deficiency symptoms of some of the B vitamins cause gastrointestinal symptoms that resemble the same symptoms as when being glutened.   Thiamine deficiency can present as vomiting, diarrhea and abdominal pain (Gastrointestinal Beriberi).  Niacin deficiency can present as diarrhea (Pellagra = diarrhea, dermatitis, dementia, then death ).  B12 deficiency can present as diarrhea or dementia.  Not everything is caused by hidden gluten.  Gluten free processed foods are not required to be enriched with vitamins lost in processing like gluten containing foods are. Blood tests are not accurate measurements of vitamin levels, but do talk to your doctor and nutritionist about supplementing with the eight B vitamins, Vitamin C, the four fat soluble vitamins and minerals like magnesium.  Your physician can give you a shot of B12 before anesthesia administration.   By the way, Celiac Disease genes have been traced back to having originated in Neanderthals.  I'm not a singing teacher on the net.  I earned a degree in Microbiology after studying nutrition because I wanted to know what vitamins are doing inside the body.  I've experienced nutritional deficiencies myself. Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your progress!
