Re: food allergies..coul this be reasons for auto immune diseases?

[Guest guest]

Hi all

Lynn s here from england dx with diffuse scleroderma severly in my skin and

fascittis in my legs but my organs spared, even though i do have the antiobody

for renal involvement,

I have just found put that i am gluten and cows milk sensitive, does anyone

out there think that maybe this is the cause of my scleroderma? On reflection I

moved to england from southern africa ( although i was born in england but spent

the good thirtyu years of my life in south africa and after a year of living in

London obviously there was a huge dietary change from back in southern africa

where most of our food is organic, no special imported exotic foods that have

been radiated etc to keep them fresh for months on end!!)

and KEN u in the same situation as me , in fact u lived down the road from me

He he) u also bought up in southern africa and now look at u , u developed RA

about 3 years after living in london, have u been food sensitive tested?

as they say 70% of our immune system is in our gut could this not be the

reason?

any thoughts on this any one?

Hi Lynn. I also have scleroderma and have huge stomach problems. Have to go

for an endoscopy to check the small bowel and the villi for gluten. Was

recently tested to see if I have an allergy to carbohydrates. Will know

shortly. Take care.
