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.

      There is much helpful 'truth' posted on this forum. Truths about Celiac Disease are based on scientific research and people's experience. Celiac disease is inherited. There are 2 main Celiac 'genes' but they are variations of one gene called HLa - DQ What is inherited when a person inherits one or both of the DQ2 or the DQ8 is a predisposition to develop celiac disease after exposure to a environmental trigger. These 2 versions of the DQ gene are useful in diagnosing  celiac disease but there are about 25 other genes that are known to influence celiac disease so this food intolerance is a multigenic autoimmune disease. So with so many genes involved and each person inheriting a different array of these other genes one person's symptoms may be different than another's symptoms.  so many of these other genes.  I don't think that much research on these other genes as yet. So first I wrote something that seem to tie together celiac disease and migraines.  Then you posted that you had migraines and since you went gluten free they only come back when you are glutened. Then Scott showed an article that reported no connection between migraines and celiac disease, Then Trents wrote that it was possible that celiacs had more migraines  and some believed there was a causal effect. You are each telling the truth as you know it or experienced it.

      Another annoying thing about trying to figure this Celiac life out is reading all of the labels and considering every choice. I shop at Aldi every week and have been for years. I was just officially diagnosed Celiac a couple weeks ago this October after my endoscopy. I've been encouraged by my local Aldi in that they have a lot of gluten free products and clearly labeled foods. I usually buy Milagro corn tortillas because they are cheap and are certified. However, I bought a package of Aldi's Pueblo Lindo Yellow Corn Tortillas without looking too closely (I was assuming they were fine... assuming never gets us anywhere good lol) it doesn't list any wheat products and doesn't say it was processed in a facility with wheat. It has a label that it's lactose free (hello, what?? When has dairy ever been in a tortilla?) Just, ugh. If they can add that label then why can't they just say something is gluten free or not? I did eat some of the tortillas and didn't notice any symptoms but I'm just not sure if it's safe. So I'll probably have to let my family eat them and stick with Milagro. There is way too much uncertainty with this but I guess you just have to stick with the clearly labeled products? I am still learning!

      Thank you all for sharing your experiences! And I am very thankful for that Thanksgiving article, Scott! I will look into it more as I plan my little dinner to bring with on the Holiday I'm also glad a lot of research has been done for Celiac. There's still a lot to learn and discover. And everyone has different symptoms. For me, I get a bad headache right away after eating gluten. Reoccurring migraines and visual disturbances were actually what got my PCP to order a Celiac Panel. I'm glad he did! I feel like when the inflammation hits my body it targets my head, gut, and lower back. I'm still figuring things out but that's what I've noticed after eating gluten! I have been eating gluten-free for almost two months now and haven't had such severe symptoms. I ate a couple accidents along the way but I'm doing a lot better

      @Mari, did you read that second article that Scott linked? It is the most recently date one. "Researchers comparing rates of headaches, including migraines, among celiac patients and a healthy control group showed that celiac subjects experienced higher rates of headaches than control subjects, with the greatest rates of migraines found in celiac women.  Additionally, celiacs had higher rates of migraine than control subjects, especially in women. In fact, four out of five women with celiac disease suffered from migraines, and without aura nearly three-quarters of the time."

      As far as I know and I have made severalonline searches, celiac disease disease has not been recognized as a cause of migraines or any eye problems. What I wrote must have been confusing.
