Re: [pecanbread Back soreness and flares/laura

Dear , so much in common with you guys on this list!

Wow....yes...don't know what the first part of message was......but my back pain

and muscle cramps (in back and legs) is related to calcium and mineral

deficiencies and possibly dairy proteins (thanks to malabsorption and a leaky

gut I might add)..... In particular if I take enough Calcium and Magnesium it

goes away. I had a bone scan and they diagnosed me with osteomalacia (adult

form of rickets...very painful)...I am on a strict regimen of calcium

supplementation and eating foods high in bone building things such as dark green

and dark leafy vegetables...I don't have the pain anymore....as long as I get

enough of these things in my diet ...don't eat much SCD dairy......and allow my

gut to heal! A few days not eating the right stuff or taking my

supplements.....pain again. Totally pain free otherwise.....motivates one to

eat their SPINACH salads and broccoli (one of the best for bones, high in

Calcium, Magnesium and Phosphorous)!...no joke...and still nursing...with

blessing from doctors! Feeling better than ever when it come to dealing with

this Old problem of the past. Beware...my husband's bone scan also cam back

with osteopenia...he has malabsorption/Celiac Disease too! Others claim that

the proteins in dairy/gluten (don't have to worry about this if you are SCD) can

cause people pain when they escape the gut and go into joints/back.....causing

pain.....but we don't do much SCD dairy....don't know if this helps.

Back soreness and flares

I am just starting up into a major flare, one thing I have noticed with

myself is that the day(s) before a major one gets started my lower back on

my right side will start to get very tight and spasm, so much so that it

soon spreads to my entire right side, almost paralyzing it, then right

before the flare starts and during, it becomes this major mass on my right

lower back, so protruding you can see it and it twists my body so when I

stand my torso is slightly pushed to a left diagonal. Does anyone else

experience this or notice it on their kids? ? what do you do to help it?

Thanks for any help,
