Foot Pain

I'm wondering if anyone else gets this. It may be completely random but just figured I'd ask and see if anyone else has this happen and maybe it is somehow related to celiac disease.

The last few weeks I suddenly get these intense, sharp shooting pains in my foot, almost like I twisted or sprained the bones in my foot. It only lasts for a few seconds and then its ok again.

like a charlie horse?

I get that sometimes... mostly when i stand up or step down from something like a chair. It is a sharp pain kinda like a charlie horse..on the bottom of my foot. It hurts like crazy for 15sec tops and then goes away. I dont kno if its connected or not...i've only recently noticed it in the last 2yrs.

Actually, yes, I have experienced shooting pains in my feet (left in particular) over the last few weeks...I'm a runner, so I was automatically attributing it to overuse and pounding. I never thought about it being related to my celiac (or anything else). Wow...anyone else?

I've had that, espeically when I've been sitting for some time and then got up. And it also happens a lot when I'm cold.....weird, right?

I actually have hairline fractures in my feet.

I get sharp and excruciating pains in my right foot. I have a broken bone in it that the doc said it would do no good to fix, and I have RA and OA, so I think that my pain is just a progression of the diseases combined with the break.

Yeah it's kinda like a charlie horse, but not really. It's that same concept of sharp shooting pain, but it not like a tightening of the muscle like you feel with a charlie horse. It feels more like someone is twisting my bones. And yeah it will be an intense pain for like 15 seconds or so and then back to normal.

It's not something I really plan on going to the doctor about or anything, but I was curious to see if anyone else gets this. Guess I'm not alone. ;)

      I'm sure it's chemically perfect. Most of them taste lousy!

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:

      Daura Damm (a sponsor here) uses AN-PEP enzymes and filtering in their brewing process to reduce/remove gluten, and it actually tests below 10ppm (I've see a document where they claim 5ppm).

      This topic has come up before on this forum and has been researched. No GMO wheat, barley and rye are commercially available in the USA. Any modifications are from hybridization, not laboratory genetic modification. Better toleration of wheat, barley and rye products in other countries is thought to be due to use of heirloom varieties of these cereal grains as opposed to the hybrids used in the USA which contain much larger amounts of gluten.
