The last several days I've just been kind of down. Sad, unmotivated, irritable, blah. No idea why. Didn't think I had been glutened, because I wasn't having any of my other usual symptoms. It was getting to the point where I was starting to wonder, but not really. Like most people, the glutened feeling is pretty specific. So I was thinking it must be because of the holidays coming up (which can be hard for me). But it's not even Halloween yet. Maybe it's just going to be a long rough season for me this year...

Then it hit me, on the 2nd day of my cycle, and the 4th day of my pants not fitting...

PMS!!!

DUH! :rolleyes::ph34r:

Now that I know, I feel better. I thought I was slipping into the gloomy.

Phew!

Ugh. Frustratingly similar aren't they... :rolleyes:

So now to my explanation list to non-celiacs on how it feels to be glutened I can say it feels like having food poisoning, a hangover, the flu, whole body pain from an overdone workout, and PMS all at the same time.

Yep. That about covers it.

:o

      Anyone had endoscopy with a cold/cough???

      By awright24 · Posted

      I have my endoscopy on Thursday, has anyone had the procedure done with a cough? I don't have a continuous cough, but every now and then throughout the day I have sort of coughing episodes. They are a lot better than they were but I called endoscopy and they said to speak to my gp and my gp got back to me and said I need to ask endoscopy if its ok if I have it done still.  Help!

      Not Sure What to Think

      By MMH13 · Posted

      Thank you so much, everyone. For the moment my doctor just has me taking iron but hopefully we can reconnect soon. I'm going to look into genetic testing, too. Great advice all around and I appreciate it--and you can bet I'm going off the PPIs!

      Sore muscles

      By Eldene · Posted

      I walk fast for fitness, 4 to 6 km per day. I am also 74 years old. Apart from the Celiac challenge, my lifestyle is healthy. I had a sciatiac nerve pinching under my one foot, with inflamation in my whole shin. It was almost cured, when the other shin started paining and burning. I do stretches, use a natural cooling gel and rest my feet. Can Celiac cause muscle pains/inflamation, or is it just over-excercising?

      Trader Joe's grocery prodcuts

      By LovintheGFlife · Posted

      I recently started shopping at a nearby Trader Joe's store. I was surprised at the number and variety of (healthy) gluten-free options sold there. I must admit their low prices are also quite tempting. However, I am curious as to the labeling on all their packages. While none of their products are certified as gluten-free, many are identified as 'GLUTEN FREE' on the packaging. Are these items safe for celiacs? Has anyone tried Trader Joe's products and have there been any adverse reactions?

      Gluten challenge

      By Beverley Ann Johnson · Posted

      HI, my doctor suggested one week of consuming gluten before blood tests.  I have been gluten free for 3 years.  Has anyone been through this and will I get exact results after one week of consuming gluten?  I don't even know if I can do this, if I get sick I am not sure if I can continue, any suggestions??  Thanks in advance.
