@Colleen H, I have had similar reactions and symptoms like yours. I started following the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet developed by a doctor with Celiac Disease herself, Dr. Sarah Ballantyne. Her book, The Paleo Approach, is very helpful in understanding what's going on in the body. Not only do you have antibodies attacking the body, there are mast cells spreading histamine which causes inflammation. Foods also contain histamine or act as histamine releasers. Our bodies have difficulty clearing histamine if there's too much. Following the low histamine AIP diet allows your body time to clear the excess histamine we're making as part of the autoimmune response, without adding in extra histamine from foods. High histamine foods include eggs, processed foods and some citrus fruits. The AIP diet allows meat and vegetables. No processed meats like sausage, luncheon meats, ham, chicken nuggets, etc. No night shades (potatoes, tomatoes, peppers, eggplant). No dairy. No grains. No rice. No eggs. No gluten-free processed foods like gluten free breads and cookies. No nuts. No expensive processed gluten-free foods. Meat and vegetables. Some fruit. Some fruit, like applesauce, contains high levels of fructose which can cause digestive upsets. Fructose gets fermented by yeasts in the gastrointestinal tract. This fermentation can cause gas, bloating and abdominal pain. The AIP diet changes your microbiome. Change what you eat and that changes which bacteria live in your gut. By cutting out carbohydrates from grains and starchy veggies like potatoes, SIBO bacteria get starved out. Fermenting yeasts get starved out, too. Healthy bacteria repopulate the gut. Thiamine Vitamin B 1 helps regulate gut bacteria. Low thiamine can lead to SIBO and yeast infestation. Mast cells release histamine more easily when they are low in Thiamine. Anxiety, depression, and irritability are early symptoms of thiamine insufficiency. A form of thiamine called Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing. Thiamine works with the seven other B vitamins. They all need each other to function properly. Other vitamins and minerals are needed, too. Vitamin D helps calm and regulate the immune system. Thiamine is needed to turn Vitamin D into an active form. Thiamine needs magnesium to make life sustaining enzymes. Taking a B Complex and additional Benfotiamine is beneficial. The B vitamins are water soluble, easily lost if we're not absorbing nutrients properly as with Celiac Disease. Since blood tests for B vitamins are notoriously inaccurate, taking a B Complex, Benfotiamine, and magnesium Threonate, and looking for health improvements is a better way to see if you're insufficient. I do hope you will give the low histamine AIP diet a try. It really works. -

Just wanted to add that checking B12 and Vitamin D only is not going to give an accurate picture of vitamin deficiencies. B12 Cobalamine needs the seven other B vitamins to work properly. You can have vitamin deficiency symptoms before the B12 blood level changes to show deficiency. You can have "normal" B12, but have deficiencies in other B vitamins like Thiamine and Niacin, for which there are no accurate tests. Take a B Complex supplement with all the B vitamins. Take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which has been shown to promote intestinal healing. Thiamine Mononitrate found in most vitamin supplements is not easy for the body to utilize. What makes thiamine mononitrate not break down on the shelf also makes it hard for the body to absorb and utilize. Thiamine and Niacin B 3 deficiency symptoms include anxiety, depression and irritability. The brain uses more Thiamine than other organs. Take the B Complex and Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and look for health improvements in the following weeks.
