Guest guest Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 Could the problems with possibly be a salicylate sensitivity? Even though he takes ibuprofen instead of aspirin, some individuals exhibit the same sensitivity symptoms. Also many of the foods that comes in contact with contain an extremely high content of naturally occuring salicylates....wine, olive oil, tomato sauce and paste, oregano...as well as...the feared yello cheese. I am probably way off base... Thanks! Kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 You advise to see a physician but he says, " I'll be OK. " Three months now pass and he sleeps very little, if at all, and has weight loss. It seems as though he has aged years in a few months and now he has some incontinence. _____ From: texasems-l [mailto:texasems-l ] On Behalf Of wegandy1938@...

While it is possible that his symptoms and signs are of psychological origin, I'm still looking for a neuropathy of some sort. So what are his catecholamine levels? What is his tyrosine level? If he has a problem with yellow cheese, does he have a problem with red wine or processed meats like the stuff he puts on his pizzas? There's got to be some cranial nerve involvement here, olfactory and whatever runs his lacrimal glands. I am thinking that I would want to have see a physician immediately for a workup for possible multiple sclerosis. Perhaps an MRI of his head? You said he had no Rx and only took Aleve. Does he take any vitamin or " health " supplements? Anybody else thinking along these lines? Gene G.
