does anyone here have joint pain especially in the shoulder? I accidently got glutened tonight and my shoulder is SO painful right now! It happened a lot before going gluten-free but I never really connected it before. i was just wondering if anyone had these same symptoms.

I have the same problem. At one point both shoulders were frozen. I went to a chiropractor for 6 months then did water aerobics. I also did yoga for a while until the studio closed on me.

I have definitely seen joint pain as being a celiac symptom on lists before. Personally, my whole back area, from my neck, my shoulders, and my hips and all in between completely tighten up. I even get some stabbing pain in my hips especially that will actually make me gasp out loud; like a twinge or a spasm. I don't experience it as joint or bone pain, more muscles/connective tissues.

My stepmom was diagnosed with fibromyalgia a few years before going gluten-free. She ended up figuring out that she shouldn't eat wheat on an elimination diet, but neither her or her doctor knew anything about celiac, so that possibility was never explored. After she cut wheat out of her diet, her fibromyalgia flares went away. And one of the first signs that she's eaten something she shouldn't is that her fibromyalgia flares up on her. She also read book about fibromyalgia that swears by a no-carb diet.

So I really believe that there is something to gluten = pain.

I get it all the time and I don't even have to get glutened for it to flare up...... I also get neck pain and pain in my elbow and knee joints..... I just chalk it up to getting old though.......

The pain I had in my right shoulder and hip have inproved with being gluten-free. The joint in my thumb sometimes gets red, painful and inflamed. That has not happened at all since gluten-free. The neck pain, while not as bad is still with me. Some days better than others. Hard to know what causes what sometimes!

That's another place I get it, I forgot!!! My right thumb joint flares up and hurts to put any pressure on it at all......

When my elbows are sore, they "give out" on me when I go to lean on them.....

      Sciatica came to mind for me as well. You might want to get some imaging done on your C-spine.

      Maybe this is sciatica? When mine acts up a little, I switch my wallet from one back pocket to the other. this isn't a substitute for more serious medical help, but for me it's a bandaid.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      OK so I just learned something completely new about this for the first time in years, that is REALLY WEIRD. One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the...

      Zaalouk moroccan eggplant salad

      I've only made this a couple of times but it's really easy and I love the flavor. If you can, use all of the ingredients to get the full palette of flavors. I use fresh or canned tomatoes and I don't worry about peeling them. If you don't have harissa, there are replacement recipes online. If you don't have the greens, I suggest adding a little chopped...

One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the hell. I've never seen a direct trigger such as this before that I can recall. The pain was the usual type I get from this problem - I suspect somehow the head movement was interrupting descending inhibition processes, causing the pain to leak through somehow.

      I've only made this a couple of times but it's really easy and I love the flavor. If you can, use all of the ingredients to get the full palette of flavors. I use fresh or canned tomatoes and I don't worry about peeling them. If you don't have harissa, there are replacement recipes online. If you don't have the greens, I suggest adding a little chopped baby spinach or celery leaves to add a dash of green color to this red dish. Best eaten in first couple days because flavor tends to fade. Leftovers are still good, but not as vibrant. Ingredients 2 medium eggplants, partially peeled and cut into cubes (original recipe says 1 in, but I prefer 1/2 to 3/4 in) 2 tomatoes, peeled and crushed 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped or minced 1 tablespoon fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons spicy harissa (I use Mina brand) 1 teaspoon cumin 1 teaspoon paprika ½ teaspoon black pepper 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar or lemon juice 1 tablespoon tomato paste (optional) Salt to taste Preparation     • Heat olive oil in skillet or pot over medium heat. Add all ingredients and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cover and cook on low heat for an additional 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.       • Serve warm or cold as a side or with bread for dipping. Enjoy!

      I checked consumer labs that I'm a member of they independently check products for safely and claims the wolfs was rated great and bobs redmill buckwheat cereal. Ultra low gotten no dangerous levels of arsenic heavy metals, mold, yeast etc. plus they mention to refrigerate. I wonder if the raw buckwheat they rinse bc it's not toasted like kasha. Toasted removes the grassy taste I have to try the one you mentioned. I also bought Qia which is a quinoa mixed got great reviews.
