Has anyone had the LEAP-MRT Food Reaction Test?
ALLERGIES: LEAP-MRT Food Reaction Testing? Has anyone heard of this test? It tests for 130 food and 20 chemical and additives for reactivity.
I have had allergies and asthma practically since birth (40 years). I have IBS, non-celiac gluten intolerance, ADHD, have had Eczema, I'm lactose intolerant, my integrative medicine doc thinks I have "leaky gut syndrome", Im allergic to shellfish (not seafood thankfully), amoxicillin/penicillin/flexeril drug sensitivity, allergic to cinnamon gum, I have environmental allergies (grass, trees, dust, pollen, etc..), acidic pineapple sensitivity (must be thoroughly rinsed, baking soda & peroxide toothpaste, all scented laundry/bath/dish soaps/feminine products, and my newest is a possible sulfite sensitivity (shortness of breath). I have my reflux under control (I had both kinds).
I basically do a (as much as possible) Organic/Non-GMO, Gluten Free, Lactose Free, GERD-friendly, Gallbladder-friendly (mine was removed 2 years ago) diet. (HAHA!) I take a ton of supplements daily and just want to know once and for all everything I am allergic or intolerant to, so I dont have to keep finding out the hard way!

How did you get diagnosed with MCS? I've been sensitive to chemicals for many years and have never had a doctor offer any confirmation testing.
Sorry to hear about what you are going through. I understand you feel like you hit a wall and you can’t move.
I just found out recently a few things about over-the-counter medication’s
I was told take an allergy med. I told the doctor I can’t take it. The pharmacy said it’s safe two different pharmacy says it’s safe. I remember 20 some years ago it made me sick. I called the company. Got to speak with a very nice young person.
They told him they tell me it’s safe, but I remember getting sick on it. We talked for a minute, then he said hold on. I’ll be right back. Then he said you are right the main part of the drug you are safe to have but the process of making it into a pill form they add lactose. So yes, I understand. He then said to me just a minute came back on and he said you could have liquid only.
I did and it worked
The lactose was not on the label because it was part of making the pill not the medication
Just another thing that you may have to be aware of
I hope things get better for you
I had it about 3 years ago.. for leaky gut..it helped alot.. but was really hard to keep up with ..I thought there were only 5 phases..and then came phase 6 which lasted about 2 months and I just had to stop..I did find out that I was lactose intolerant and then the hospital gave me a lactulose enema for severe constipation.. almost killed me.. so many things have 'hidden ingredients..I am able to tolerate zofran..it has lactose in it (or milk..IDK exactly what to call it..I learned to really watch labels..my PC said "it's just dangerous to eat"..so true!! I do google alot of things before I take them.. and do interactions research.. prayers for you!! Life is not easy when you have these problems!!
