You aren't weird (well, not that I've seen anyway - <G>).  My motto
has always been "WHY BE NORMAL"?  My dad is diabetic and his blood
sugars bottoms out when he is sick too, so...  If'n y'all is like my
pappy, then that's a good thing!

Smokie Darling (Annie)--hadn't noticed you nearly so opinionated as he
is though

<snipped for brevity>

You do just like you do.  The best you can.  There are people that their
body rejects nearly everything taken or eaten.   It can be a physical thing
with a persons immune system and it can also be the games we play within our
own mind.
   In both cases, it takes the best of help and a person that really wants
to control what is taking place.   You are doing the best you can to
understand and get better and that is all any of us can do.

thats terrible to not be able to eat anything. i thought I had it bad with
having sugar, but I can eat veggies and most anything without sugar.
thinking  of you!!!

Hi Daughter,

No you won't. People in this century eat way more than is needed to survive. You
just need to eat small quantities of what you can eat many times a day.

Is that organically grown veggies, fruits & meats?  If not do you wash the
veggies & fruits thoroughly?

You're probably sensitive to the high level of chemicals (mercury) that is in
most fish now. We get Polar Tuna for the cats & I do sushi while I'm feeding
them. ^_^ If they won't eat something I won't eat it. ^_^

Most fruit juices are just corn sweetener with a little fruit any way. I just
drink double filtered water with a swish of lemon juice for flavor. You need to
find a dairy that doesn't kill the milk when they pasteurize it. I drink 16 oz
of whole milk & eat 4 oz cottage cheese  & 8 oz of yogurt a day.

For breakfast I eat one slice of buttered whole grain bread (made with honey)
& 4 oz of yogurt.

Lunch is 2 oz of brown rice with 2 oz of ground turkey (made like a meat loaf).
16 oz milk warmed, with 1 tbs. instant coffee & 1 tbs. local honey.

Supper is 2 oz turkey, 2 oz of veggies, 2 oz cottage cheese with 2 oz canned
peaches or pears in fruit juice & a 16 oz cup of tea.

That sounds like Gall bladder problems in addition to MCS.

After 26 years of not being able to eat most 'normal' foods I've gotten used to
living on what I can eat & only eating small quantities at a time. Sarah did
find a whole grain vegie pizza I can eat. ^_^

Figure out why! Shop for organically grown foods & figure out what you can eat.
Learn self control & what your body will allow you to do.

But it could be milk or whey or any number of other things in the
cookie dough.  I found out the hard way that whey will cause a nasty,
nasty reaction in me.  And that casein, the protein in milk that makes
things creamy and makes cheese melt, causes an anaphyllactic reaction.
I now have an Epipen and know to use it and take 60mg of prednisone,
then get my butt to the ER if I have another reaction like that.  If
you have serious food allergies, or serious allergies of any sort, you
need to work out an emergency plan with your pulmonologist.  Among other
things, the ER docs usually are clueless.

Shhhh.  Everything else that used to be cheap that I liked has increased in
price to the point its crazy.  Flank Steak and Short Ribs.  Tri-Tip roasts.
Lamb Shanks.  If those who determine such things find out how good they are
the price will skyrocket.

SJ, I like beef liver cooked with onions & gravy also.  And I also like
chicken livers, but like the gizzards best.  So sorry about the cookies.
Gwen

SJ,

I agree with Alex.   Keep a journal of everything you eat and drink and
see if you can find a common thread in the ingredients that might be
causing you problems.

Also, have you ever considered doing an elimination diet to see if you
can find some of your food allergies and such?

Have you ever considered going to a homeopathic or natureopathic doctor
to try and get help with some of your allergy issues?   Sometimes they
can find things that traditional doctors can't find.   Talk and get to
know the people in your local health food stores to see if they can make
suggestions of things you might try.  Often time the people in your
local health food stores will also let you try a small sample of
something before buying which can be most helpful.  

Like Alex, mentioned, try yougurt every day.   Even with a bit of a milk
intolerance, you should be able to handle a small 4 oz carton of
yougurt, but be careful of the fruit flavored ones that may have dye
added in for coloring.

Instead of orange juice, chocolate chips or other candy for your low
blood sugar readings, try a saltine cracker or two and a tablespoon of
peanut butter.

try keeping around your house things small portion items like string
cheese, crackers, peanut butter, raisins, tuna, any kind of nuts that
you might be able to tolerate, any fruits that might be tolerated, even
with the IBS, you should be able to tolerate some fruits and veggies.
Hey, if you like chicken livers, then cook up a batch and put them in
small portion containers to have when you just need to eat a little
something.   If you can eat soups, then make lots of soups and freeze
them in small quantities.  Maybe look into a probiotic type supplement
to help your intestinal issues.

Go to ganedenbiotech.com and look at some of their free samples they
offer for IBS supplements and digestive aid  supplements.   Both of
these supplements have lactobacillus in them which can be helpful to
your entire intestinal tract.  

If your regular doctors aren't finding the problems, keep everything you
can written in a journal to try and help find the culprit as well as try
some other types of doctors like the homeopathic doctors.    Sooner or
later you will come upon a regimen of what will work for you and your
life should get a bit easier.  

Best of luck!

Yes indeed.  It is the REAL Kitty Kelly.  She was surprised to learn about
her funeral!
