T7 Nerve damage


Ennis-TX

Recommended Posts

Ennis-TX Grand Master

So I was seeing my chiropractor for my monthly adjustment (can not see weekly due to funding so we spaced my appointments monthly) to fix some issues with my spine. They did a type of electrical nerve impulse reading using these sensors they placed along my spine. Anyway it showed heightened activity on most and normal on a few...but my T7 was showing like 15% what it should be reading wise. They said this could be nerve damage but went on to ask about my stomach and pancreas as these would be effected by it.......sort of dawned on me...I do not produce enough pancreas enzymes and my stomach randomly has dumping issues where it holds up, does not handle solids sometimes, and randomly needs stuff to regulate the acids.  I have done nothing to outwardly damage that nerve, nor have they noticed anything in the X-rays on that one. most my issues are lower back and neck. Anyway I am wondering of my gluten ataxia with my immune system attacking my nervous system might be responsible? Like a targeted response to gluten exposure? Trying to figure what what might have caused it.   Treatment wise it being a chiropractor they are sure they can fix me with more adjustments.....sort of makes me roll my eyes but at least I have some kind o indicator to a few issues.

Interested to find this out. Have seen many chiro for T issues. Granted had head on car accident but no nerve pain until Celiac. Also have dry stomach lackibg digestive enzymes. Not a coincidence when i read members issues. Nerve pain is more of an issue specifically upper body use of arms and shouldets. than malabsorption 10 years after gkuten free.

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.
