Want To Stop Itching?

HI

I've learned so much from the forum and now I'll share a product you all have talked about.

I was itching so badly and have seen so many posts about this and esp today with the Dove soap thread.

I just know this product has WORKED LIKE A MIRACLE FOR ME.

I got the body lotion, shampoo and conditioner and stopped itching right away.

I got the small bottles to sample to see if it worked and then went back and ordered the large bottles.

The nice thing is you order on line and all shipping costs are $3.99 no matter how much you order.

It comes within 2-3 days of getting your order. I think i ordered it at 11:00 pm on a Tuesday nite and had it on Thurs or Fri that same week.

I know there have been other posts re: this product on line so if you want to do a 'search' using the name I'm sure you'll find alot of other people who have good things to say.

Last time they threw in a free bar of soap to try.

Love this company.

I hope it works for you! I also hope this is the correct web site. I'm afraid to minimize this to ck and risk losing it. Do a PM to me at judy@jl-studio.com and i'll send it to you if this doesn't work.

Can't remember if you said you'd tried them.

I sent you a note re- my test #'s but not sure where they went:) :)

when did you send it?

when did you send it?

about 1/2 hr ago.

It was a cut and paste from the post re: test results

My test results on on that thread.

I also sent one to the gal who you just wrote to re: colon test and prep and don't know where it went either.

Hope you had a great Turkey day.

Welcome to the board. Are you being strict with the gluten free diet and avoiding iodine? While DH doesn't need iodine to flare iodine will keep the antibodies in the skin and increase the intensitiy of a gluten reaction.

Go with as much whole food as you can and be really strict with food, preperation and toiletries and the DH will go away but it does take time.

I've head to toe itching from June this year. I messed around with mistakes, tempations and after month or so of grief I got serious about going gluten-free. I started healing but I would still be itching all day/night.

NOTE: This is extreme and certainly not necessary for most forum members.

But CindyLouWho26 you might like to hear what is finally working for me:

FOOD:

I have had to get super super strict with my diet. 90% or more is meat, veg, fruit. I eat rice or rice noodles some days. There is one gluten-free brand of cereal (and only rice or corn flakes, rice pasta. Any of the ones containing too many ingredients is a problem) that I can tolerate.

This has allowed me a lot of freedom to experiment. Added raisins one day and spent 24 hours itching like crazy. Baked gluten-free cupcakes and only ate a little bit and itched. I have been able to add a tiny little bit of gluten-free soysauce. And yesterday I tried a gluten-free satay/peanut sauce that I didn't react to. Yey! finally something with flavour and no crazy additives.

HOUSEHOLD CLEANING:

I wear gloves to do the dishes and clean the house. I found any detergents irritated lumps and bumps on my wrist/hands.

Double check your laundry detergent. I use liquid as the powdered ones gave me trouble for years.

BATHROOM:

I have been washing myself (hair included) with bicarb soda. I hadn't had much luck finding safe products that were affordable (I'm in Australia). I did this reluctantly and doubtfully but figured it was worth having a go! Ive been doing this for about four weeks and my skin is so good now!! I won't be rushing out to replace that bicarb soda ;)

I'm going to try something natural(such as avocado, for conditioner).

I've avoided makeup for years ((I now know why :blink: ))

I'm still use a nasty ingredient deoderant but only if I need it and hope to replace that with something natural.

In the last four weeks I have had a *massive* improvement in my itching. I had a rough night last night after too much seafood but all day today is probably the most itch-free day I've had since all this started. And I am saving a LOT of money.

      Get tested for vitamin deficiencies.  Though neuropathy can be a symptom of celiac, it can also be caused by deficiencies due to poor digestion caused by celiac and could be easier to treat.

      Thank you so much for your response  Yes it seems as though things get very painful as time goes on.  I'm not eating gluten as far as I know.  However, I'm not sure of cross contamination.  My system seems to weaken to hidden spices and other possibilities. ???  if cross contamination is possible...I am in a super sensitive mode of celiac disease.. Neuropathy from head to toes

      EXACTLY! I was asked yesterday on my LAST video call with Standford and I stated exactly yes absolutely this is why I need the name! One, get proper care, two, not get worse.Im falling apart, stressed out, in pain and just opened email from Stanford stating I was rude ect.I want that video reviewed by higher ups and see if that women still has a job or not.Im saying this because I've been medically screwed and asking for help because bills don't pay itself. This could be malpratice siit but im not good at finding lawyers

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.
