May I ask what tests you had to confirm this? I have high uric acid too for some reason.
Unfortunately I only found a good nephrologist
after healing myself at home. But my symptoms matched the description of metabolic acidosis while my kidneys still work perfectly. Apparently one will only be diagnosed with it at the ER if the kidneys are shutting down. My signals at the ER were:
- low body temperature 34.6°C
- serum sodium in the top range
- serum potassium in the top range
- creatinine normal in the middle of the range
They sent me home and suggested I was having an anxiety attack. I have never been an anxious person.
The following day I saw my hematologist and was able to convince him to give me an order to test for serum and urine magnesium. Serum Mg was in the top of the range and urine Mg very low below range. Then I knew I needed Mg, but at this point I had already tried glycinate, sulfate, citrate and aspartate with no success. Sometime later I decided to give Mg oxide a go and then all my acidosis symptoms quickly subsided, along with sodium bicarb baths.
Then when I found a nephrologist who ordered all the proper tests (incl 24h urine) all my electrolytes were in mid-range, uric acid highish inside range, oxalate very low below range.
So these are the only tricks I know to keep uric acid low: MgO + Na bicarb. Other people who tried it had problems with candida overgrowth
So for now I put Mfolate in the back burner, because too much Mg lowered my Ca, and it is a snowball. I don't want to supplement with calcium. I have even restarted to eat dairy (yogurt, curd and cheese) to increase calcium input, since plant sources contain too much salicylates...
Adding DAO enzyme has been a real change for some people I know who had problems of unknown origin with foods.
The only foods I have been intolerant to are avocado and coconut oil, and by principle gluten, soy, nightshades (except for potatoes) and milk are out of my menu. So between taking another supplement or leaving avocados out, I leave avocados out. Unless if it could eliminate my constant bloating
Unfortunately I will have to live without imported supplements for now that my scholarship ended and currency conversion went crazy.
And I'm very sensitive to all kinds of little doses of things. Can be drugs, can be metals. (especially Al and Hg have a profound effect)
Just like me!
The upside is I can test substances out with a tiny little amount, to find if it works.
Just like me!
What nuggets have you discovered concerning these detox SNPs?
I haven't found out much about them
remember that time that we didn't know this and both took mB12 by the handfull?
Exactly like me
Maybe we shouldn´t hijack G-lands thread
Please do
his has been a special interest for me in the search for why some people get sick from amalgam and others don´t.
I am very interested in that!
Did you post your detox panel in any thread? If not, could you do that and I will try to answer your question.
Please tag me when you do that, ladies, as I don't want to miss this discussion
