Dry Heaves? Nausea? Help!

I am beyond tired of dealing with this. I finished lunch about 2 hours ago. I just had a nausea/dry heaving spell that is barely managed with some nausea pills.

 

Has anyone else done this?

I had Arby's (something that hasn't caused problems in the past...which is why I still eat it). I'm on gluten until at least Thursday. The nausea pills I have seem to work. This isn't the first time it's happened. The last time it happened was after I ate out but I don't remember where.

Did you ask your primary why they interpreted your test results as positive?  If they are correct and your interpretation is wrong than it is not surprising that you are having issues.  Also if you are actively refluxing than I would expect problems too.  You may be gluten intolerant which would also cause these issues.  If it were me I would try to eat more healthy to heal from the problems you are having.  Are you planning to have an endoscopic procedure?  Do you plan to go gluten free regardless of results?  

 

All the best!

Well, if you are gluten intolerant and still eating gluten, presumably for a biopsy? then you are probably having a reaction to it. I know I'd have more than dry heaves and nausea if I ate at Arby's.  :ph34r:

 

(or am I missing something.??).

I'm only eat gluten once a day and I'm only doing that until I know if the GI wants to do an endo. When I had the discussion with my Mom it was more of a "keep eating the same for lunch and the house will be gluten-free." After this...I'm thinking I just need to enjoy some toast and start making my lunches for work. I have a horrible, horrible fast food addiction...and I think it's better to work on that sooner rather than later.

 

I am actively refluxing, too. Not only do I have the hiatal hernia but I have some serious GERD. Like, I feel food in my throat an hour after I've eaten bad reflux. Today my body just said, "Nope, no way. I'm done with this nonsense."

but, I am confused. How long before the GI doctor makes up his mind about the biopsy? You can't keep being sick.

 

and yes, fast food is not good, celiac or not. :)

I have an appointment on Thursday to talk to him about my test results. I'm pretty sure they are negative (which means diddly squat).

 

I posted the results in another thread, here they are:

 

Immunoglobulin IGA 279 (I can't find a range for this...but it is listed under 'abnormal'

IGG 2 

IGA 5

tTG IGA 3

 

When I looked on the website for the interpretation it says: 

 

<20 units, negative

20-30 units, weak positive

>30 units moderate to strong positive

 

That looks negative to me. So I'll see what the doc says when we have a chat Thursday.

Well once you know. Then look on line and see what fast food places have Gluten free stuff. McDonalds has Gluten Free fries , So when I go out, if my friends want to stop at Mickey "D"s I get FF's and a soda. It doesn't seem like much but really I will never suffer on purpose. Or you can say, Nope I am done with Fast Food forever!! It is toxic to me and my body!! You can do it!! All that crap is not nourishing to your body. Take care of your self!! You are in control of you!! Sorry I tell my kids the same thing! Hope you feel better soon! Good luck!!

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
