New development - any ideas?????

[Guest guest]

Hello everyone,

I usually only post these days when something new happens. Just wondering

whether there is a link between thyroid issues and SUCROSE malabsorption???

Does anyone out there have any ideas about this?????

Yesterday I was at the docs and received the results of my final sugar

malabsorption tests that were carried out at a major hospital. My results came

back positive for SUCROSE MALABSORPTION. I've had a look online, but there only

seems to be a link to some sort of inherited condition, but as I won't see a GP

until Wed ( I need a referral to a dietician), I am trying to work out what the

sucrose malabsorption means as far as my diet, etc.

In September, my earlier sugar test results came back positive for lactose

malabsorption, so now I have to deal with lactose AND sucrose malabsorption. I

am also gluten intolerant. I told my friend and she said that now all I can

have is bread and water.... without the bread. lol, but not really lol as I have

no idea what I should be doing now.

Just a quick background - I've been on the forum for a number of years now. I

was diagnosed with Hashimoto's and hypothyroidism in early 2007 and have never

felt well on thyroxine, yet I haven't been able to tolerate using T3. I have

ongoing chronic exhaustion, constant migraine aura, headaches and migraines that

usually go on for 7 + days, lipoedema, low vit D levels (controlled via

supplementation) , iron anaemia (controlled via supplementation), lactose

intolerance, gluten intolerance.

Any ideas or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
