I am a therapist with celiac disease. I see it all over my caseload with the children I work with, everything from ADD to bi-polar to Aspersgers and Autism. Some parents will pick up the idea of celiac or yeast infectin and run with it. Other's are very skeptical. I would love some testimonials from parents like you, who have found some successes, no matter how small in addressing your children's celiac and yeast infection problems through testing, gluten-free diets or whatever. Especially as related to behavior and learning problems. Of course, the medical and physical problems are just as important, but in my office we are working on behavior, emotional and learning problems. So connected with celiac! Parent testimonials can be so helpful to other struggling parents. Sometimes they can get through to others like no other information. I would love to have testimonials that I can hand out to clients. Any suggestions and information would be helpful. Thank you for helping the children on my caseload.

      Probably celiac but also confused

      Hi @terrymouse Generally, after a Celiac Seriology Blood Test, if something anomalous shows up, the follow-up will be a Gastroscope. Your Endocrinonogist will be looking to see if you still have (Villi). Villi are Tenticles/Hairs that are prevalent throughout the small intestine; their function is to extract nutrients, vitamins and water. The absense of Villi will typically result in watery bowl movements, other telltale signs being, lethargy, feeling cold, always hungry (valuable nutrients are being bypassed). I was diagnosed 12 years ago. One other thing associated with an AutoImmune Disease, they generally have a companion, in my case I have Hypothyroidism, other may have Hyperthyroidism (Hashimoto's). Others may get Eczema, or some other skin disorder, usually due to not getting the proper nutrition your body needs.   HTH Mark.

      Can Celiac flares affect my eyes?

      Thank you Knitty Kitty,   I have all the information for the nutritionist sitting in front of me, but I've procrastinated.   Between you and Scott - I'll contact him tomorrow and get started on a better me.   Thank you both for all the support and information.

      Can Celiac flares affect my eyes?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hi, @jeriM, I can attest to Celiac and eye problems being connected!  There's a higher rate of Sjogren's Syndrome in Celiac people than in those without celiac disease.  Sjogren's Syndrome causes dry eyes and can even lead to dry mouth which can alter taste and smell.  Have your doctor check for Sjogren's.  Correct low Vitamin D, which regulates the immune system.  Talk to your nutritionist about including in your diet plenty of Omega Three's. Omega Three's help keep our eyes moist and lubricated.  You know how oil floats on water, same thing with our eyes!  Fun fact:  Our eyes are derived from the same sort of tissues as our digestive tract in a developing fetus. Oh, check your thyroid function, too.  Hashimoto's thyroiditis frequently occurs with Sjogren's. Autoimmune diseases tend to cluster in celiac disease.  I also have Diabetes type two.   Discuss with your nutritionist the benefits of a low histamine diet.  A low histamine diet can help reduce inflammation and gets those inflammation markers down.  I like the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet that promotes intestinal health. Best wishes!  Keep us posted on your progress!

      Ah, Scott,    Ha ha!  Thats almost a reasonable assumption given the prices during the shortage.  However, our eggs?  We always gave them away to friends and seniors we know, so no mansion here.  Now we have to buy eggs like everyone else.   The house we found, we loved so much that it made it worth it for us to give up the chickens.  A hard decision.

      gluten-free self diagnosed journey so far as well as what triggers. Eye crying like peeling onions?

      Claritin is an allergy medication which can help with allergy symptoms, but may not be helpful with gluten exposure.
