Sure!  For me it is old age.  I noticed this area hurt, when I walked up a steep hill right at the start of my walk.  Told hubby we need to stay flat until we are warmed up.  😊

well that went away...  but I have some small muscle spasms mainly in my legs / calf area and feels like little ants pinching me sometimes...

I talked with Azure, another member here and he said he experienced the same pinching sensations when he was diagnosed but all over his body..

I've been dealing with awful muscle pain and joint pain for years, part of Celiacs. Someone suggesting taking Bromelian supplements for that and seems to work! I was taking Ibuprofen daily and I've been able to ween off that taking the Bromelian. Something to be aware of though, I had a terrible pain that ran the full length of my upper thigh, lasted weeks and just seemed to get worse. Then got a terrible UTI, went to the Instacare and told doc I also had this awful pain, and he said it was part of the overall body infection. So, to be on the safe side, maybe you should go see the doc and make sure you don't have an infection going on, this pain was different than the "regular" joint pain stuff I get. Hope you do better! ; )

High doses of really good turmeric can help with inflammation that may be causing your pain.  It's used for people with rhumatoid arthritis.  I take about 2000 mg a day for allergy issues, it really helps with the swelling in sinus tissues, but I find it also helps with aches and pains from aging.  I get it at procapslabs.com, who was into the turmeric way before it became more widely known.  Good Turmeric that is high in circumin is not cheap, but better than prescription drugs, and really works for me.  (I'm female, almost 64, and just shoveled 2 yards of gravel BY MYSELF for a bed for the new garden shed, was careful about twisting and not throwing too far, took some extra turmeric, and got only a few aches after....1 more yard to go!)

Ibuprofen is not gluten free..  and..

In fact, ibuprofen is well known for irritating the gut and can cause stomach ulcers. And now, research suggests ibuprofen could be linked to the development of coeliac disease. ... In people who have a predisposition to coeliac disease, the researchers believe this can lead to adverse reactions to gluten.

      is Kirkland Imported French Brie gluten free?

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      Agree with everything your wrote. Just to clarify my earlier comment, I was specifically focusing on cross-contamination risk, as opposed to identified, obfuscated, or occult ingredients. I've noticed that Costco does like many other manufacturers and errs on the side of caution by putting the major allergen exposure label on products that are actually safe. My first bump into this was buying their Kirkland quinoa online, where the website says it is gluten free but the package says it was/might have been/ made in a facility that processes wheat. They were able to tell me that the package I bought was certainly safe, but they explicitly stated that that could change at any time (so don't count on their answer today being relevant for next month's purchase).

      Elimination diet think I may be Gluten tolerant next steps to get tested? Questions

      By trents · Posted

      The reality is, returning to gluten consumption makes some people so ill that they cannot complete the gluten challenge. There is no shame in that. Nonetheless, they must live with the ambiguity of not knowing whether they have celiac disease or NCGS. Another reality is that at the end of the day, both conditions require complete abstinence from gluten and other "cross reactive" foods. One thing you can do is to get genetically tested to see if you have one or both of  the genes that have been linked to the development of celiac disease. This doesn't require a gluten challenge. However, the gene test cannot be used to diagnose celiac disease since 40% of the general population have one or both of the genes but only 1% of the general population ever develops celiac disease. But it can be used to rule out celiac disease. If you don't have either gene but you are certain that gluten causes distress then you know you have NCGS. And, to answer your previous question about the gluten challenge causing further damage to the SB villous lining, the answer is "yes" if you have celiac disease. However, a few more weeks of damage on top of months/years of existing damage is not likely to do irreparable harm.

      There are some other things that can cause elevated blood antibody numbers on the celiac tests. Some other diseases, some medications (olmesartan, NSAIDs) and even some other intolerances to non-gluten foods, especially dairy. But the odds are, the elevated numbers are caused by celiac disease.

      I just don't want to eat too much gluten and get sick for 6 weeks before the test. I would rather eat just enough for the test and not over gluten. I guess 2 slices of whole wheat which I was having and my regular oatmeal may work which was my previous routine and pasta but that's about of gluten daily lol I will have to see not sure about buying our gluten. Is it true after eating gluten it can stay in your body for a long time? If I eliminated gluten for 3 weeks does it mean it's really still in me and I can still have issues? Thanks

      Thanks for the info guys. I’ll follow up with my GP next week. So as it stands it’s looking like Celiac is likely? It’s come as a bit of a shock really, I know my symptoms have persisted a bit more over the past month or so compared to previous flares. I did have a bout of norovirus about 8 weeks ago and stomach never quite returned to it’s best since.
