Hi everyone, just wondering if anyone has experienced this: 

i have gotten off everything with gluten, rice, dairy and even sugar. (Raw food diet plus a little plain meat) I was doing great for about a month, and now all of my symptoms are starting to creep back: depression, foggy mind, anxiety,mood swings, racing thoughts, etc. no gastrointestinal probs but I never had much of that to begin with. It's really discouraging because I thought I had a good handle on it.  Any ideas or suggestions? I eat a lot of seeds and nuts, vegetables, fruits and a bit of meat.

You are six months into then diet, but had a month of feeling good, right?  Perhaps you are consuming a hidden source of gluten.  Maybe go back to you doctor for a celiac blood panel to check for compliance?  

I was glutened in July.  I can not tell you what glutened me.  It was probably one product or one prescription medication that my gluten-free husband did not consume, but I will never know because I am not going to test it out!  My symptoms were different that when I was diagnosed, so I went in for the blood panel.  Sure enough my antibodies were high!  Took me two months to feel better and another month to get dairy back.  I thought that I was very careful (have been at this gluten-free with my hubby for 14 years and over two years for me.)

Gluten happens. ?. At least rule it out.

      Healthy diet leading to terrible bloating

      For the Inguinal hernia I could definitely feel it, and it came with an obvious bulge that appeared soon after doing a project where I was drilling holes on concrete using a very old school regular hand drill with mason bit, instead of a hammer drill with mason bit--this left me squatting over the drill putting my weight on it for several hours (the hammer...

      Healthy diet leading to terrible bloating

      @Scott Adams Strange question but can you actually feel your hernia? I have so many abdominal lumps and bumps of longstanding (my GP said it's fat!) that I sometimes wonder if an inguinal hernia could be missed. I am quite sure some of my pain is from my umbilical hernia but that first came about courtesy of my second pregnancy.

      Traveling gluten-free in Ireland

      Thanks for sharing this! I've always wanted to go to Ireland, and we did include Ireland in a recent top travel destinations article, so it's nice to know that we got that right:

      Healthy diet leading to terrible bloating

      I had double hernia laparoscopic surgery two months go to repair both an Inguinal hernia (a recent home project injury) and an umbilical hernia (which I had for many years, but fixing it at the same time made sense), and am now more or less fully recovered. Recently on the forum someone mentioned the idea of hernia induced IBS, which I now believe was a real...

      Healthy diet leading to terrible bloating

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      For the Inguinal hernia I could definitely feel it, and it came with an obvious bulge that appeared soon after doing a project where I was drilling holes on concrete using a very old school regular hand drill with mason bit, instead of a hammer drill with mason bit--this left me squatting over the drill putting my weight on it for several hours (the hammer drill would not have required this level of stress, nor the time it took). Bad idea--learn from my mistake in being "lazy" and not renting (or buying) the proper tool for the job. My umbilical hernia was around for many years, and I didn't feel that one at all, so never worried about it. My doctor basically recommended doing both in one surgery, which seemed like wise move.  As far as the possible IBS connection to either, it was definitely apparent after getting the Inguinal hernia, which is why I asked my doctor about that, but after getting both fixed I realize that the umbilical hernia likely also had mild IBS effects over the years.

      I had double hernia laparoscopic surgery two months go to repair both an Inguinal hernia (a recent home project injury) and an umbilical hernia (which I had for many years, but fixing it at the same time made sense), and am now more or less fully recovered. Recently on the forum someone mentioned the idea of hernia induced IBS, which I now believe was a real for me, but was a fairly minor issue overall, which got worse after getting the more recent Inguinal hernia. My doctor never mentioned this as a possibility, even though I directly asked him about it during my office visit: Me "can my hernias cause any digestive issues?" My doctor: "No, I doubt that." I still need to learn more about hernia induced IBS, but I realize now that I might have been affected by this to some degree in for a while.
