Re: Think Im cured

Thanks for the hair test link, ill get on that soon

I'v been overwhelmed lately

Gluten handling was normal on the tests, however, oat and egg came up positive

I was hoping that this would have faded as my health improved so last weekend I tried eating some brownies(eggs needed to make them) and, to my horror, my intestines started burning like back in the day when the IBS was in full swing

Im thinking that there must still be some underlying issues if the allergies are still there

The only viable options I have include:

Figuring out if both Betain HCL and Digestive enzymes are needed. If I only need one then not only will I have a clearer idea of what my problem stems from (pancreas vs. stomach acid production) but I will also be able to save money by cutting the supplement out. Not that they really cost that much but Im not wealthy, beyond that I have been wanting to do a stool culture and these can show false positives/negatives if digestive enzymes are taken

The stool culture interests me greatly due to rectal itching and the fact that my bowels are heavily involved

Hair tests of course being a route I will walk one way or the other

perhaps Im missing something, what other options are there in designating and treating such a difficult illness? Tweet
