Have you been tested for celiacCeliac sprue - foods to avoid disease or other malabsorption syndromes? These can sometimes cause the symptoms you describe.

I agree with Wilson, about checking into CeliacCeliac sprue - foods to avoid Disease (a gluten intoleranceCeliac disease - sprue
Gestational diabetes
Lactose intolerance), which can cause "malabsorption" syndromes!

That website has many neurological forums, and can give you much info. Also, post your question there, AND on the neuro forum here at med help!



In case you might have CeliacCeliac sprue - foods to avoid Disease, try avoiding "gluten" containing foods for several months. This means avoiding WHEAT, RYE, OATS, BARLEY & BUCKWHEAT. Spelt is a form of wheat, and has gluten in it. Triticale has gluten.



Brown rice is gluten free, and nourishing. But some CeliacCeliac sprue - foods to avoid patientsKidney diet - dialysis patients do better, by firstFirst progesterone mc10
First progesterone mc5
First-progesterone vgs 200
First-progesterone vgs 400 avoiding ALL grains. CornCorns and calluses is gluten free, but is very "allergenic", so avoid it. Millet may or may not agree with CeliacCeliac sprue - foods to avoid patientsKidney diet - dialysis patients, so avoid it.



Also, avoid milkBreast milk

Thank you for your response.  I have been checked for celiacCeliac sprue - foods to avoid disease.  Tests show that I do not have the disease.  I also have been checked for B12 defeciency, and everything was normal.  I do have some autoimmuneAutoimmune disorders problems which some say it is LupusLupus - resources
