Hands Shaking


Lisa

Recommended Posts

Lisa Mentor

With two months into gluten free.....

I am now feeling better, slowly. I have been keeping most of my meals where they should be. It still seems that every third day is not so good. After lunch for several hours are bathroom trips. It is slow, but progressive improvements.

It does seem that on those bad days, my hands shake and it is almost impossible to type on the computer. I tend to drop things and basically feel very spastic.

I am not sure whether this is a dehydration issue or not. I have a first cousin with MS and that really scares me.

Could this be a side effect of celiac disease? Anyone out there having the same experience?

Impute would be gratefully accepted.

I have the same sympton, but I have not yet be able to corlate it with any cuase. Theres no MS in my family that I know of. I am not yet gluten-free though... so might be completley unrelated to yours.

Ahh , yes, a very familiar symptom when I get contaminated. Let's see, blisters, dry mouth and the shakes, then you don't stray for more than two minutes away from the bathroom. Fog brain and no driving, can't concentrate long enough and we have a fast highway to contend with before we get anywhere. Hate those days! Very careful to avoid them as much as possible.

Glad to talk to you again. I am still not healed, so I don't know whether it is gluten or not. I guess that will take some time. I have only entered a few new things into my diet. Oscar Meyers bacon bits, Oil of Olay vit. (clearly say "gluten free" and Clinique lipstick that I have checked to be gluten-free, Annie Roasted Pepper dressing. Every third day is a not so good one...........but, better than every day. So I guess there is progress here. Mornings are good, I do my run-arounds before lunch, which I have to remind myself to eat, after that not so good. By dinner, I'm fine. I do think that I have to back down on the adult totties. I am sure that will help, but hard to do.

Getting Cold up there?

It has cooled down somewhat, and although we have had a frost or two, it's not yet freezing at night. We do have the beautiful fall colours, and the day time temp is hanging around 60F. :)

I've never seen the Annie Roasted Pepper dressing, but the rest sounds fine to me. Although there is quite often an ingredience difference between the U.S. and Canada. That's unfortunate, as it tends to be confusing, especially if one travels between the two countries often.

      Thanks very much for confirming my suspicion @Scott Adams! That helps a lot because I'm really trying to track down and get rid of these sources of cross-contact and so I'm going to just rule out the draft ciders and hope that helps. Also @Rogol72 its nice to hear you haven't had a problem on that side of the pond - draft cider lines being used for cider only certainly sounds like the right way to do it, but I think that must not always be practiced over here!

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.
