Kavinace For Glutening

My functional medicine doc suggested that Kavinace might help me when accidentally glutened. It actually does seem to help some with the raging anxiety I get following a glutening.

 

Anyone else have any experience with it good or bad, or know anything that might make it a bad idea to use?

Kavinace did almost nothing for me. BTW I trust you already know that anxiety can be caused by a drop in thyroid hormone.

Nope, didn't know that. I only have anxiety following a glutening (beginning within minutes of exposure), and it follows a predictable pattern, so I'm guessing it's that and not my thyroid.

 

The first time I took Kavinace it didn't do anything for me either. The next time I took two. Two seems to help blunt the edge of the anxiety some for me.

hmmm, I wonder if that was my problem today. I started cleaning my Kitchen aide, but I just broke down into a major panic/crying fit. I was going to have to get rid of it. It wasn't going to get clean. Wait what about dinner? How was I going to cook anything bla bla. I wonder if I wasn't careful enough and glutened myself while cleaning. 

 

I know nothing about that medicine, but if it works I may need to find something out about it.

      CT with contrast.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      Chances of being coeliac

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease.

      Chances of being coeliac

      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.

      I was told it was to see how much damage has been caused. But just told CT with contrast not any other name for it.
