Anxiety and muscle pain

Well it's turned out to be one of those days where everything is setting off the anxiety, I will first say I strained my back and arms yesterday at work by lifting a very heavy garbage bag into the dumpster, came home and back and right arm and ribs were killing me, tried to work out the pain and thought i had done so, however this morning not so much shoulder and arm are going between ok and feeling numb, to top it off I get the fight or flight mode when needing to have a bowel movement so numbness and bowel stress kicked off the anxiety to the point where i thought i was going to be sick. I am newer here and have really only been gluten free for almost a month, any ideas that could help me out?? I know it can and will take time to get back to "normal" however still need some advice with this. I take a multi vitiam (cant spell today) everyday and I do not see the GI until July my family doc is at a loss for what to do for me.

Top suggestions for both issues. Magnesium and a B vitamin supplment

Two options I suggest for magnesium. Natural Vitality Calm, is very effective but can bit a bit harsh on your gut. Suggest starting off with 1/4tsp work working the dose up over a week or so to what works. OR Doctors best is much easier on the stomach version that will not cause gut issues. Take it as recommended.

B vitamins I swear by taking both Liquid Health Stress & Energy and Neurological Support 3 times a day. 1tbsp each.

There are some food suggestions I can give to help out also like if you can get a gluten-free certified hemp and pumpkin seed source either protein or the whole seeds. GERBS, Oil Seed Company, and Jarrow are sources I trust.

IF you need to know here to buy these things price around between, Lucky Vitamin, and Amazon

PS I use a CBD Oil Vape pen for emergency panic attacks seems to take the edge off.

Thank you I will look into  all of this and let you know.  I take b12 1200 time release right now but the Magnesium I have not done yet, My last blood test showed that it was good.

Magnesium really helped with my anxiety issues. I never get a full fledged panic attack since going gluten-free 7 months ago. I still get uneasy at times, and magnesium does wonders.

You Should look into a more multi b-vitamin like I suggested they work so much better together.

And another day of waking up to bs and anxiety this time my right arm is sore but numb, and I am getting a pulsing in my upper guts, I know there is nothing wrong with my heart. I started the b12 yesterday and know it's going to take time but well this is nuts, feel like I am losing my mind.

      Ibuprofen

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen  I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce.   Something is making my pain so much worse  I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs.  Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever would do. I'm fairly new to this. Whatever is going on seems to be worsening  Do people get a withdrawal effect from gluten?  It's extremely painful 😖  I'll post that question or research on the site  Thank you everyone for responding

      Oh my goodness medication causing pain !!!!

      By Colleen H · Posted

      I think I found a huge culprit for severe reactions to create worsening of my c symptoms. Do people with celiac have sensitivity and /or have opposite reaction to certain medications Where can I find a list ?  I'm new here I'm.wondering why I am getting worse when I take certain medicine...the burning feet.  Rebound muscle pain so intense  How many people get opposite effects or have a horrible attack after these meds

      Stomach burning and neuropathy

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Does anyone know if that includes scrambled eggs and healthy smart butter (,gluten free) I add a very tiny amount of margarine less than a teaspoon.  I did no't have any bread    It just seems like no matter what I eat my stomach and nerves over fire and here comes a host of horrible symptoms. My lower abdomen feels horrible, my right leg thigh muscle.. very odd. Jaw pain. Burning feet , joint pain , you name it  The anxiety just creeps up into brain fog. I don't think I could explain this to anyone who is unfamiliar.  Also,  I most likely will not remember posting this until I check it.  This is highly unusual for me because I have an excellent memory.  One weekend before I knew anything about celiac I lost an entire weekend from severe brain fog, confusion, pain, etc.  I honestly thought I was losing my mind. When I think back I recall eating a lot of PBJ sandwiches and turkey sandwiches.  Once again did not know about gluten.  I was just too sick to cook. Do people fast during attacks ?? It seems horrible to keep going through this. I hope I'm not causing my own problems... I wonder if I should fast because I'm not eating gluten .  Chicken ,  scrambled eggs no milk , canned carrots,  gluten free low sugar low fat Greek yogurt which I already posted about 😞 Any suggestions I am open... I am bedridden when this happens to me.  Thank you Celiac community. 🙏🏻❤️

      Stomach burning and neuropathy

      By Juliane · Posted

      Yeah, that sounds super familiar. When inflammation levels are high — especially at the start of changing your diet — the body often develops a fructose and lactose intolerance. Unfortunately, the only thing that really helps is cutting out anything that isn’t lactose-free or that contains sugar. So basically, stick to meat, veggies, fish…
