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.

      Welcome to the forum. Can we assume that you've been diagnosed with celiac disease and have been on a gluten-free diet for a while? If so, it sounds like you may be in the super sensitive group, as others here have reported similar issues when working in bakeries, pizzerias, etc. Until you find other work, and perhaps don't have roommates who cook gluten foods, you may need to consider wearing an N95 mask to avoid breathing in any particles.

      I used to work in a kitchen where gluten was very prevalent. Cookies, sandwiches, etc. I noticed I started having joint pain, and my hands would flared up in hives while working there. I would sometimes bake cookies during my shift and open the oven having the air from the oven go directly into my face.     Even at home my roommates sometimes fry things with regular flour and my joints start to hurt, brain fog, it was hard to move for a week, I just genuinely felt weak my legs like jelly and painful.  I never put two and two together before.   I’m not eating the food I feel like it’s causing issues.   My roommates don’t think there’s a correlation as I’m not eating any of the food they’re preparing. I’m trying to find another job now, I got one coming up at a restaurant that serves gluten food and I’ll be working in the kitchen. I’m thinking I should try to find a non food job. Anyone else worked food service and have flare ups?

      The ulcers are prepyloric ulcers. Not sure if that makes any difference.
