- knitty kitty replied to Mihai's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease16Pain in the right side of abdomen
@Heatherisle, I'm so happy that your daughter had her B12 checked! B12 needs all the B vitamins to work properly. A B Complex should be taken to ensure there are plenty of B vitamins to allow B12 to function properly. It's very rare to have only one or two low vitamins in Celiac Disease. B vitamins are water soluble, so any excess is easily excreted... -

I'm so glad your daughter got her B12 level checked at last! -

Hi Daughter finally had her B12 checked and her level was 30, normal range 180-200 so GP has prescribed medication for 4 weeks then further blood test so that probably accounts for how awful she’s been feeling recently. Folate was 2.2 just below the range of 3.0 - 20 so will need folic acid. Think iron levels were borderline but don’t know the numbers. No... -

9 y/o Son Diagnosed with Celiac Disease; Persistent Symptoms: Does this Sound Familiar?

@Heatherisle, I'm so happy that your daughter had her B12 checked! B12 needs all the B vitamins to work properly. A B Complex should be taken to ensure there are plenty of B vitamins to allow B12 to function properly. It's very rare to have only one or two low vitamins in Celiac Disease. B vitamins are water soluble, so any excess is easily excreted in urine. Tingling in feet and hands is symptomatic of deficiencies in B vitamins like thiamine, Pyridoxine, and niacin. September 19 2025, "Your daughter needs to be checked for Vitamin B12 deficiency as soon as possible! The nitrogen compounds in anesthesia can precipitate a B12 deficiency resulting in severe depression. Please have her checked immediately! The nitrogen compounds in anesthesia (both gas and injected anesthesia) bind irrevocably with the Cobalt in Cobalamine Vitamin B12. This precipitates a B12 deficiency in people with a low B12 level. This can happen immediately, within days or weeks or months depending on B12 stores. I've had medical procedures that required anesthesia and been struck down by deep dark depression and uncontrollable crying immediately, and also within weeks of the exposure. My doctor put me on antidepressants which only made things worse. Antidepressants don't correct a vitamin deficiency. Please have her checked for B12 deficiency as soon as possible!" -

Hi Daughter finally had her B12 checked and her level was 30, normal range 180-200 so GP has prescribed medication for 4 weeks then further blood test so that probably accounts for how awful she’s been feeling recently. Folate was 2.2 just below the range of 3.0 - 20 so will need folic acid. Think iron levels were borderline but don’t know the numbers. Not sure if it was Ferritin levels they did. History of haemochromatosis in family , my husband has it and other daughter is a carrier. She still has a few more blood tests to be taken including Vit D levels. Has had deficiency in that last year and had 6 month course as had back pain and tingling in feet and hands. Anyway thank you everyone for all your previous replies and help!!!! -

Ijmartes71 I son't think you are crazy by any psycoligical s=defination but you are obsessive. you may have considerable brain fog , a problem that affects celiacs and many other people. . With this obsession you have abd being braun dogged you arw not abke to take any advice people are giving you to help you. To take advice you need to reduce your anxieties abd think more clearly. .Stop taking your herbs for at least one week because some of them will have side ellectsif you take them too long. You can add them back if you don't notice any good changes. Be more careful about being strictly gluten free.
