P.S. I also suffer from Meniere's and Hashimoto's thyroid disease, osteopenia since 40 y.o. These all were diagnosed before the Celiac Disease! And I believe it is all interconnected. -

Inflammation and Menier’s disease link?
Hi Mags, I was diagnosed almost 4 years ago at 57y.o, also of Irish heritage, my mom's from Co. Galway. Have your doctors run an immune globulin panel. My IgA was undetectable & that is what the usual bloodwork for celiac relies on. For example, my tTG IgA was below 2 & deamidated Gliadin IgA was 5, both in normal range. In other words, you do not... -

Not sure of your diet but I also experienced this after being diagnosed and going gluten free. Turned out to be issue with both gluten free oats and dairy. I gave up the oats and all dairy except hard cheeses and it relieved both bloat and gas. Also if you have not recently have your iron and sodium levels checked, mine were both very low and per my doc contributed... -

Early guidelines from years ago concerning D3 supplementation was unduly conservative. There was fear of toxicity in over-supplementing because D3 is a fat soluble vitamin and not a water soluble vitamin. More recent studies have shown we can supplement safely at considerably higher levels for extended periods. But yes, 50,000 IU would not be safe over an... -

@knitty kitty I had an injury from assuming I could do work outs at the gym like I did in my 20s 😏. it didn’t work in my favor. My orthopedic doctor told me to go on 50,000IU /per week for 4-6 weeks for a boost and then do a maintenance. I took 2 and got nervous to take any more, it seemed so high to me. About 7 months later I had a blood test revealing that...

My IgA was undetectable & that is what the usual bloodwork for celiac relies on. For example, my tTG IgA was below 2 & deamidated Gliadin IgA was 5, both in normal range. In other words, you do not have celiac. I HAD TO ASK THE DOCTOR TO RETEST ME using IgG versions of both tests! When he did tTG IgG = >100 ( range 0-5) & the deamidated gliadin IgG = 219 (range 0-19). I also had 2 copies of the gene on 23&me. It is sad that you have to tell the doctors what to test for, but you have to do your research & be your own advocate...

That much is a kick start dose.

About 7 months later I had a blood test revealing that my Vit D levels are lower than normal. I started taking vit D supplements-4000IU./a day now. (the natural garden of life ones) I had a friend whose levels were low and she was having a mental breakdown. My B12 levels were right in the middle of the range.
