Hi,
I've been diagnosed with hypothyroid and adrenal insufficient but I'm still having problems, which has lead me to wonder if I have this. Waiting to see gp.
If I eat foods that are high in fat I suffer from:
Distended bloated belly
Ache back
Exsessive wind, gas.
Nausea
Stools that are very mushy and stick to the toilet
I'm starting to feel better with hypo symptoms: not so cold etc and I'm starting cortef for cortisol.
But not on optimal dose of thyroid or cortisol yet.
I have low sodium, hypolglycemia aswell.
But
Symptoms not getting better are:
Spasm in muscle in my face muscle making me look like lopsided smile, fluctuates through out the day.
Skin very dehydrated, thin, lacking in moisture
Frequent eye infections
Lack of energy
Periods of anxiety
I have read that fat malaborbtion would lead to vitamin deficiency and wondered if that would also why I'm getting eye infections..
I also have to avoid: peanuts, yeast, sugar, gluten and do low carb diet. Symptoms are better when have very low fat aswell...
I just wondered if this sounds like Crohn's ..
Thank you for listening, so fed up with it all.
