Anyone else have trouble with work because of symptoms with celiac?  I have had a bad week of getting gluten by accident and I have been so tired all week.  I just started working full-time about 6 months ago and it seems like it is taking a lot out of me.  I was working 30 hours a week and went to 40 hours now.  I'm coming home at 6 pm and taking naps.  Anyone else having this to deal with?

I'm still a newbie (two months) and I"m struggling with anemia, perimenopause and a thyroid that's swinging from hyper to hypo, so I can relate.  I take lots of little mini-breaks.  I've also learned to say, "No!"

That's good that they work with you like that.  I guess I just need to work that out where I am at.

      Finally got in to doctor to get my referral and I lucked out and got into Gastro the same day - question about different transglutaminase results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It’s great that you were finally able to see a gastroenterologist—and even luckier to get in the same day as your referral! It sounds like your GI is taking a very thorough approach, which is reassuring given your complex symptoms and history. The confusion around your different tissue transglutaminase (tTG) antibody results is understandable. The variation between your December and June labs may be due to multiple factors, including differences in the lab performing the test (Quest vs. Mayo Clinic), the specific assay used, and the amount of gluten you had been consuming before each test. Antibody levels can drop significantly when gluten is reduced or eliminated from the...

      Gluten free thyroid medications

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I don't believe that site is updated regularly, and it may be unreliable.  You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/

      Gluten free thyroid medications

      By KimMS · Posted

      Hello! I did a brief search on this and couldn't find recent posts, but feel free to direct me to something if I missed it! I have had a difficult time confirming which thyroid medications (specifically generic forms of Levothyroxine) are gluten-free and safe for celiacs. I am pretty confident the generic manufacturer Mylan is safe, and I have been taking this for almost two years. Recently (I think b/c of a recall), Mylan has not been available at my local pharmacies. The list I typically use for gluten-free drugs (http://glutenfreedrugs.com/newlist.htm) does not list any of the other manufacturers offered by pharmacies in my area (Accord and Macleod). When I do a search, sites tend to say these...

      Newly diagnosed, struggling

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Hello @CeliacNew, If you are Vegan to help you feel better, reconsider returning to omnivore.  Actually, since you are already on a very restrictive diet, transitioning to gluten free might be easier for you.  Read the ingredient labels, Particularly vitamin D and Choline require supplements for vegan diet because our primary source is sun, eggs and beef.  B12 also.

      Multiple symptoms and mixed provider responses

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Once you've completed testing and still don't have improvement, start a trial gluten free diet.  Looking for imprvement that may indicate Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity, which is 10 times more prevalent than Celiac Disease. Deficiencies in vitamins B6, B12, D, and C can manifest as skin rashes.  Virtual guaranty you are deficient in vitamin D.
