Guest guest Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 Sorry Dawn, I was hoping that it might help you. I will pray for you as that must be so difficult. Thanks for the explanation.

I need to follow a very specific diet that is very low in a specific chemical that is absorbed by the breeaking down of fat in the small intestine. The chemical is only found in grown foods or animal products that eat grown foods. Becaue my liver does not correctly produce bile, I cannot break down fat correctly; therefore, I cannot excrete this chemical, Oxalate, which is posioning my kidneys. My lab work proved this when the normal oxalate level is 42 and mine came in at over 120. The link you sent me allow for berries to be eatten. I cannot eat most berries (cranberries are okay). In 6 months they will re-test my oxalate level and if the diet is working then I will be in good shape. If not they will have to take more drastic action. The problem I am having is common in people with kidney stones, short bowl syndrome, inflamatory bowl disease, and liver disease due to malabsorbtion problems. It can also have genetic causes. Thank you for the information though.

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 -----Original Message----- Low Oxalate DIet It is not easy and I would rather not be on it but I also don't want a kidney transplant. Yeah, we worry about kidneys too. Post-transplant meds aren’t fun, I’ve gotten to the point where I don’t read the side effects anymore. There’s lots of info and recipes on low Oxalate diets on the web, that should help some huh? Barb in Texas - Together in the Fight - Whatever it Takes!
