Thanks everyone. I don't have any metal or glass bowls. Doug, that bowl probably was the biggest issue, it is a bit slick inside. Thanks.

Hey girl...sorry you don't have any answers. That has been the story of my life...abnormal symptoms, great blood work. I am convinced that you and I both just aren't having the right tests being run. Hope you get some answers soon hun!

Still hunting for the canned stuff Tony...haven't found it yet. I need to get a metal bowl or glass...all of mine are plastic, and while they were chilled I'm sure it's not the same effect. It's not a priority right now, so I'm not overly concerned. I'm taking a stab at a protein drink today. Let's hope that goes better.

Yep Michelle...Umpa's right about those oxalates! Bad bad bad for kidneys. Homemade lemon aid is best if my memory serves me :) keep us updated! She's also right about iron def, I have that too :\

Hey hun...I replied to you on my "What I Ate Today" thread, so I won't repeat here...I too have lost so much I had a bald spot, then I got pregnant and grew it back...now it's falling out again :( I too swell on trips, and have headaches and feelings of fainting and heart palpitations. Sigh. Let us know what you find out :) add me on FB if you can when you see my PM. God bless you and keep us updated!

Hey Happy2bthin! My doctor didn't do anything except tell me to lose weight and recommend a diet that is nearly vegetarian (which I'm already vegetarian), drink a lot of water, watch out for tea because it can cause a build up of crystals and cause kidney stones, and to follow up with my doctor locally and lose fat. My grandmother has 10% kidney functioning, and she was given a few years to live, but she has surpassed that dramatically because she went vegetarian. I'm no doctor obviously, but I would recommend looking up extenuating research that shows vegetarian diets are easier on the kidneys because a kidney that is not functioning properly has a very, very hard time processing a lot of protein :) When I was a social worker at a nursing home, I dealt a lot with renal failure, so I know a good bit about it professionally as well. Watch out for tea except for real green tea and the tea you mentioned...but make sure it's 100% green tea, most green tea is only a fraction green tea...other tea can be deadly to your kidneys. Let us know what you find out! I sent you a message that I couldn't get you on FB. I have two friends my age with congestive heart failure, I know a good bit about that as well...I hope it's not that. I've got to see my doc soon, I just haven't had the money to see him yet :( will soon though. Hope to hear from you soon! God bless!

Thanks Tony...I think I gave up on it. I started at the slowest speed, but the slow speed is still pretty fast. I just may have to see if I can find a way that I like cream cheese with mixing in stuff and not use a lot of cream cheese so it doesn't make me sick. Blah.

Umpa...I'm going to give your cake a try soon...some questions, I don't have xylitol, I have erythritol and EZ-Sweetz...will either of those work? Also, what was the carb count for the cake and count for icing? And I HATE cream cheese...always makes me sick, but I'm going to try your recipe with the nuts and coconut added and hopefully that will work for me :) SO excited for this recipe soon ;)
