Mood Swings And Things

Ok while I have only been gluten-free for  three weeks,  my moods have been very calm,but today has been different. Oddly seem to be a bit shorter tempered than normal, I have went over everything I have eaten past few days (food journaling) and can attest that everything in my kitchen is indeed gluten free. I know I am still going thru a withdrawl period but holy crap. Did anyone else here during their initial first few weeks have the bizare mood swings? I'd say it would be my time of the month(sorry if TMI) but that would be a bit impossible seeing I had a hysterectomy back in  2011. Does anyone know outside of deep breaths, mediation and such to help stop the cranky mood swings I am experiencing today? The news is not totaly bad, I recently have found I am starting to work on things I have needed to do like get my MCSE, and working on learning to code again.

If they left the ovaries - it could be hormonal. If you are taking any hormone replacement, the healing intestines might be taking in more than you need, now.

Getting a diagnosis of a disease that, while its treatable, is life long,  can be very emotionally draining.  You can be going along fine, and suddenly, BAM!  It kind of reaches the breaking point.

Everyone, Celiac or not, has grumpy days.  It may be the weather, it may be you didn't get enough vitamin XYZ, it might be you didn't sleep as well as usual, too  much caffeine, too little caffeine, too much sugar, too little sugar,  it could be you have been possessed by demons.  Who knows?

Thank you for the insight. I still have my overies as I had expressed my concerns for not wanting to go on hormone therapy after expressing those concerns to my obgyn. Who agreed since my overies was perfectly healthy.  Actually there was some recent changes going on  non health related but enviormental, that may kinda led into it.  I may have been reacting to others  emotions more than my own, sometimes I do tend to do that. I just felt it was more of a me thing.

yup, ovaries in all likely hood ="period" like hormone alterations....unless you have aged out after the fact, you are one of the sub group that losing your uterus has put you into menopause...don't know a lot about that, but have heard of it.

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Definitely worth speaking to your gastroenterologist about this. My own told me that by using Gaviscon a barrier forms over the contents of the stomach and stops gas and acid irritating the throat. In fact, he said to me that because I found relief using Gaviscon that was a very clear indicator that reflux was the cause of that particular issue. A wedge...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      I did get the pneumonia vaccine about 4 years ago. I had this amazing allergist who did all those vitamin deficiencies test and told to get that vaccine. Unfortunately she retired. I haven’t been to an allergist in a few years, I’m not sure what my levels are now. I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Yes I do have acid reflux. I’m not on anything for it at the moment. I sometimes wonder if that’s what it could be because I get heart burn every night. I may revisit my gastrointestinal doctor again. Thanks for the reply

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways. I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux. Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Since initially getting your D checked a few years ago, has it since rebounded to normal levels? Sounds like at some point you got it checked again.

I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young etc. But yes I think I should at the very least get a different opinion. Thank you for your reply

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways.  I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux.  Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following a holiday to France in 2019, where I had been exposed to gluten.    The reflux continued into the autumn and winter, my throat itched to begin with, particularly after meals, but it then that feeling of irritation seemed to spread to my lungs.  I even found it difficult to breathe on occasion. What stopped it in its tracks was using a wedge pillow at night, following a reflux diet (you can find them online), not eating 2-4 hours before bed and also having a dose of Gaviscon Advanced at night, which forms a barrier so that acid/food can't go back up your esophagus.  The throat irritation faded, and then I found it easier to breathe again. Just mentioning in case it could be a contributing factor.
