Bloods are fine but still feeling horrific!

Hi,

I was diagnosed with Coeliac a month ago, and therefore had two weeks of B12 injections every other day, which did seem to help with my lethargy, concentration, mood etc, however the last few days I have been feeling terrible, my head pounds, I am so exhausted, agitated and restless. I thought I would just go and get my B12 tested they would say its deficient earlier than expected come in for a top up and you will feel right as rain... however the bloods were normal (I am due to have top ups on a two monthly basis) so why do I feel this way, I have completely avoided gluten, as far as I am aware I haven't been glutened. Is this normal? will I always feel this rubbish? is there a usual span of time that you feel rubbish after cutting out gluten! I can not concentrate at work and it obviously has an affect on my patience and home life due to my mood and irritability... please tell me this will pass!

thank yousad.gif

It will pass.  Really.  You are just starting out.  It can take some people weeks, months or years to feel well.  I improved at about six months.  At one year I was back on my bike riding.  At two years I was feeling pretty normal (am old and have to take that into consideration ?).  So, give it time and hang in there!

Everybody is different.  I felt tremendously better after three days.  Then after a couple of weeks, I felt worse.  That lasted for a few weeks, and now I feel great most of the time.  It just varies.  Stay the course.

I agree. Hang in there and it will get better.

      Gluten challenge and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      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.

      Natural remedies

      While it's always important to approach internal use of essential oils with caution and ideally under the guidance of a qualified professional, your experience highlights the potential of complementary approaches when traditional medicine falls short. Many in the community are also interested in the intersection of natural wellness and gluten-free living, particularly for managing systemic inflammation and its various symptoms, so sharing your story is valuable. Your observation that it may also be helping with bloating is fascinating, as that could point to an overall reduction in inflammation. Thank you for sharing what is working for you!
