Any One Else Have Issues With When They Wake Up As Apposed To How Much Sleep

ok so i got told i had celiac disease a year ago about. was trying to be fully gluten free since july/aug range but was accidently glutening my self with some ingredients (corn flake crumbs i had use malt in them and i was eating some steak sauce with malt vinegar in it that i didnt realize) so ive been gluten free to the best of my abilities for over a month now i think.

any way its always seemed for me that even with 9 hours of sleep waking up early (for me at least), pretty much before about 9 ish i seem really tired all day, yet i can sleep 6 hours and get up at 10 and not be tired. maybe its more so what im getting up for (i have classes but they are studio classes so i am physically working most of the time in them).

also my stomach bothers me more when i wake up early not sure whats up with it, if its really related or what ever

any one else have similar issues?

My sleep patterns where all messed up until I started taking B12. I use the sublingual methylcobalamin type. Things slowly got better month after month. I have much more energy too, but the main thing is that the supplements (not just B12) have resolved the severe nerve/muscle pains, twitching, numbness, etc.

B12 is vital for many things, including serotonin and melatonin production. And since there is no known level of overdose for B12, it can't hurt to try it! Just make sure to read the label!

thanks, i havent been taking my multi vitamin since i was taking one a day and while there wasnt gluten items in it they say they cannot guarantee what it gets in contact with and all, my parents picked up some multi vitamins for me from our applied kinesiologist so i will get them hopefully today if i can make it back home (the company that makes them guarantee all their stuff is gluten-free and our AK said this formula is the one i should take as apposed to the one my rents take (has some different iron and iodine levels))

so i got my multi vitamin and only have been taking them for 5-6 days and wow i feel much better. it says to take 6 a day but our alternative medicine guy told us to take 4/day. but the daily value of 6/day in the b12 category is 7500%. i already have been sleeping better and waking up more easily and the stomach issues i was having the last few weeks have calmed down (knock on wood). its made by Thorne Research (i take the basic nutrients II, my parents take a different one that has slightly different things in the metals and iodine levels) and when i called them the lady i talked to said everything they make is gluten-free. honestly dont know the cost of them but i got a bottle of 180 so it will last 45 days.

score one for the supplements

      Oh, okay. The lower case "b" in boots in your first post didn't lead me in the direction of a proper name. I thought maybe it was a specialty apothecary for people with pedal diseases or something.

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! There are other things that may cause elevated tTg-IgA levels, but in general a reaction to gluten is the culprit:

      Hi @trents Just seen this - Boot's is a chain of pharmacies in the UK, originally founded in the 19th Century by a chap with the surname, Boot.  It's a household name here in the UK and if you say you are going to Boot's everyone knows you are off to the pharmacist! Cristiana

      I am looking to find a Celiac Dietician who is affiliated with the Celiac Disease Foundation who I can set up an appointment with.  Can you possibly give some guidance on this?  Thank you!

      Nacina, Knitty Kitty has given you good advice. But I would say/add find a Fat Soluble B-1 like Benfotiamine for best results.  The kind found in most Multivitamins have a very low absorption rate. This article shows how taking a Fat Soluble B-1 can effectively help absorption by 6x to7x times. https://www.naturalmedicinejournal.com/journal/thiamine-deficiency-and-diabetic-polyneuropathy quoting from the article.... "The group ingesting benfotiamine had maximum plasma thiamine levels that were 6.7 times higher than the group ingesting thiamine mononitrate.32" Also, frequency is much more important than amount when it comes to B-Vitamin. These are best taken with meals because they provide the fat for better absorption. You will know your B-Vitamin is working properly when your urine becomes bright yellow all the time. This may take two or three months to achieve this.......maybe even longer depending on how low he/you are. The Yellow color is from excess Riboflavin bypassing the Kidneys....... Don't stop them until when 2x a day with meals they start producing a bright yellow urine with in 2 or 3 hours after the ingesting the B-Complex...... You will be able to see the color of your urine change as the hours go by and bounce back up after you take them in the evening. When this happens quickly......you are now bypassing all the Riboflavin that is in the supplement. The body won't absorb more than it needs! This can be taken as a "proxy" for your other B-Vitamin levels (if taken a B-Complex) ...... at least at a quick and dirty level......this will only be so for the B-1 Thiamine levels if you are taking the Fat Soluble forms with the Magnesium as Knitty Kitty mentioned. Magnesium is a Co-Factor is a Co-factor for both Thiamine and Vitamin D and your sons levels won't improve unless he also takes Magnesium with his Thiamine and B-Complex. You will notice his energy levels really pick up.  His sleeping will improve and his muscle cramps will get better from the Magnesium! Here is nice blog post that can help you Thiamine and it's many benefits. I hope this is helpful but it is not medical advice God speed on your son's continued journey I used to be him. There is hope! 2 Tim 2:7 “Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things” this included. Posterboy by the grace of God,
