I;m going to have some allergy testing done tomorrow. After the talk I went to last night about endo i'm going to see if I have issues with wheat, dairy or gluten and that may be playing with my endo. Hopefully it goes ok as I will have to take both boys with me to the lab to get the tests done. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

I'll be getting them done as well, progesterone, estrogene, feritin, and thyroid are the ones I want done and then what ever other my dr wants to get done. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

I'll be watching this space! Do you think that a gluten intolerance due to endo would show up? I'm gonna try cutting gluten after last night's talk too - my grandma, 3 aunties and mum all reckon they are gluten intol. and are of Nordic/Danish stock! -------------  |

Not sure T, I spoke to my mum and she thinks that its probably dairy as my sister has dairy issues. But no harm in getting them all tested tomorrow. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

How did you get on Becks? Got any results yet? I went off for testing today cause I've been soo tired lately. Thyroid I think, iron, B12, folate?, glucose (I remember that one cause I had to do a 12hr fast!!).... and I get the results on Mon/Tues. I'm quite interested for the results.
In the meantime I've been cutting down my gluten intake cause my mum, all of her 3 sisters and their mum all reckon they are gluten intolerant (and not one has been to have it checked, go figure!!). I reckon they all have/had endo. But anyhow, cutting the gluten down surely won't hurt... I'm having fruit & yoghurt for breakfast (that was also to stop 'blockages'  ), salad and canned fish for lunch, and then whatever the family is having for dinner. ------------- |

Well everything came back normal But I have to wait for the gluten and intolerance tests to come back as they have been sent to Canterbury to be tested, and i've just had a few more done as well and they also have to go down to Canterbury to be tested. So hopefully in 2 weeks I have an answer or its back to thinking outside the square again. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |
