Nini,

Sorry to go off topic, I know you are having personal problems, but I'm wondering about Chiropractors. What exactly are they used for? Do you believe they get results?

Again, sorry you are having work problems.

yes I believe that Chiropractors get results, chiropractic is usually thought of as treatment for whiplash after car accidents. That is only one of the things they are good for, also for headaches, back pain, neck pain... I believe that they are also good for general well being, keeping the nervous system free from blockage, the nervous system can function better.

HI

MAYBE WE SHOULD START A THREAD ON --"HOW CHIROPRACTORS HAVE HELPED US"...THOSE THAT WANT TO CAN START THEIR OWN THREAD OF WHY THEY HATE THEM.

MINE IS THE ONLY EXPERT ON celiac disease THAT I HAVE SEEN. MY INTERNIST & GI TOLD ME TO CONSULT HER ON THE DIET AS SHE KNEW MORE ABOUT IT THAN THEY DID...GIVEN HOW SHE'D HELPED ME OVER THE 11 YEARS I'VE GONE TO HER.

IT TOOK 3 YEARS TO GET UP THE COURAGE TO SEE HER AS I DIDN'T BELIEVE IN THEM. THAT BEING SAID. ' THERE ARE GOOD ONES WHO ADJUST EACH PATIENT IN A DIFFERENT WAY BASED ON THEIR PARTICULAR NEED' JUST AS THERE ARE BAD DR.S THERE ARE ALSO BAD CHIRO'S.

MY SWIMMING TEACHER OF 5 YEARS BEGGED ME TO SEE HER.

SHE CAME TO MY HOUSE AFTER DX'D AND PERSONALLY 'DEGULTEN MY KITCHE'

I WOULDN'T BE WALKING TODAY WITHOUT HER.

JUDY IN PHILLY

PS NISILA--I THINK THE IDEA OF A REHAB PLACE MIGHT BE GOOD. BET YOUR CHIRO WOULD GIVE A GOOD REFERENCE...I FORGET --DO YOU HAVE A DEGREE OR CERTIFICATION..I HAVE A FRIEND WHO JUST WENT FOR MASSAGE THEARPIST AND IS SO BUSY SHE'S EXHAUSED..I KNOW THERE IS A PLACE FOR YOU SOME WHERE OUT THERE.

I hate that good people have bad things happen to them.

I hate that losing people hurts.

I hate that love is the biggest, most painful risk we can take.

But above all that, today, right this minute, after working out almost EVERY day this last two weeks...

Nini I don't know anything about your occupation so I can't offer any suggestions. There is a better job out there and this may be a sign to start looking. Good luck and hope all works out.

I hate Doctors who request your phone call and don't get back with you for four days, and then it's their nurse. So, anything new that may have happened in those 4 days I have to leave a new message for, which won't be returned for 4 days by his nurse again...

I HATE THE CITY....my country doctors were back with me in 2 hours and they knew my name, my history, and gave me great advice even though I'm seeing someone else...these doctors here I'm just a number or something, obviously not someone they really care about...AAGGHH!!!

I just want to feel good!! or really I want someone to tell me it's not gluten it's something entirely different because I could only afford a day and a half worth of gluten free food....ughhh, I hate this!

I HATE MY JOB!

Okay -- here goes (deep breath) :

I hate the fact that my boyfriend of 5 1/2 years and I were about to get engaged in January and, were it not for the sudden revelation about all this Celiac stuff for me and his dissertation defense would still be about to get engaged, or, in fact, engaged, but NO -- he had to go and freak out and actually move out of our shared house and now I need a roommate to cover the last few months of the lease -- not to mention the fact that I'm writing a dissertation as well AND my boyfriend is on the job market looking for an academic job which will take him far away and possibly even make it impossible to heal the rifts in our relationship -- even though we were both ready to take the jump towards marriage together -- because now I'm having second thoughts about writing my dissertation long-distance just so I can move to be with him RIGHT NOW and am thinking that -- if we get back together I'll need at least six months in town here to write before I can move -- (and he's just now said he wants us to date each other again -- last night after three and a half weeks of hellish moving out frenzy and his total refusal to own any of his anger about this. I hate that we've created another rift in the trust between us.

Despite all of this, I'm feeling fabulous and getting a lot of work done and spending time with friends -- which is the ironic other result of finally figuring out what was wrong with my health.

I hate.....

- not being able to have a whopper w/ cheese and fries at burker king!

- not having an appetite

- the feeling of being full after eating 2 bites of something

- being nauseous 24/7!!!!!!!

- this overall sick feeling i feel like i have ALL the time

- how depressed i always get

- how i feel like an outcast when im around everyone else eating normal foods

- that no one around me understands the frustration with this disease

- that i dont feel like myself anymore

- weighing 88lbs. i really really hate it!

- when people say "i wish i had that disease so i could be skinny'

- paying $6 for a loaf of bread that tastes like cardboard

- that i cant take some miracle pill

- having NO energy

- feeling sick

- feeling sick

- and feeling sick. i hate it!! :(

I'm finally feeling pretty good again, so I can take most of these things with a grain of salt, but it doesn't hurt to vent a litlle here:

I hate when my department head tells me he understands my restricted diet because he's a vegetarian and I can't bless him out because he's my department head.

I hate that immediately after this he tells me we're ordering pizza for a departmental dinner.

I hate being reduced to eating a salad so often when eating out.

I hate being so skinny and feeling guilty for hating that I am so skinny because all my other friends are trying to lose weight. I really hate that I have a friend who is trying to lose a substantial amount of weight and we often go to the gym together, and I just have that feeling that I make her feel bad.

I hate that my 'disease' becomes the topic of conversation at nearly dinner/party/bar when I meet someone new. That whole Now why can't you eat grains -what a freakish body you have-tell me more syndrome. Particularly when my other friends could probably recite my lines for me.

I hate the stinking inconvenience of a gluten free diet.

I hate most of all that my mother almost assuredly have Celiac but won't get tested. It worries me all the time.

I hate nausea. Really. I hate it. Three straight years of it constantly, and somehow I think that should be exempt from ever vomiting again.

Well, I guess now that I've purged myself here, I should count my blessings on the love,love,love page...

      Self Diagnosed avoiding gluten 7 months later (Not tested due to eating gluten to test) update and question on soy

      I know I haven't been tested but self diagnosed that by avoiding gluten the past 7 months I feel so much better. I have followed how to eat and avoid gluten and have been good about hidden gluten in products, how to prep gluten-free and flours to use to bake gluten-free and have been very successful. It has been a learning curve but once you get the hang...

      Feel like I’m starting over

      Check your multivitamin to see if it contains Thiamine Mononitrate, which is a "shelf-stable" form of thiamine that doesn't break down with exposure to light, heat, and time sitting on a shelf waiting to be sold. Our bodies have difficulty absorbing and utilizing it. Only 30% is absorbed and less can be utilized. There's some question as to how well multivitamins...

      I am taking a multivitamin which is pretty bolstered with B’s. Additional Calcium, D3, Magnesium, Vit C, and Ubiquinol.

      @Scatterbrain, What supplements are you taking? I agree that the problem may be nutritional deficiencies. It's worth talking to a dietician or nutritionist about. Did you get a Marsh score at your diagnosis? Was your tTg IgA level very high? These can indicate more intestinal damage and poorer absorption of nutrients. Are you eating...

      Has anyone had terrible TMJ/ Jaw Pain from undiagnosed Celiac?

      Vitamin and mineral deficiencies can make TMJ worse. Vitamins like B12 , Thiamine B1, and Pyridoxine B6 help relieve pain. Half of the patients in one study were deficient in these three vitamins in one study below. Malabsorption of vitamins and minerals is common in celiac disease. It's important to eat healthy nutrient dense diets like the Autoimmune...

I have followed how to eat and avoid gluten and have been good about hidden gluten in products, how to prep gluten-free and flours to use to bake gluten-free and have been very successful. It has been a learning curve but once you get the hang of it and more aware you realize how many places are gluten-free and contamination free practices etc. One thing I have read is how soy is like gluten. How would one know if soy affects you? I have eaten gluten free hershey reeses that say gluten free etc some other snacks say gluten free but contain soy and I dont get sick or soy yogurt no issues. Is there adifference in soys?

      Check your multivitamin to see if it contains Thiamine Mononitrate, which is a "shelf-stable" form of thiamine that doesn't break down with exposure to light, heat, and time sitting on a shelf waiting to be sold.  Our bodies have difficulty absorbing and utilizing it.  Only 30% is absorbed and less can be utilized.   There's some question as to how well multivitamins dissolve in the digestive tract.  You can test this at home.  YouTube has instructional videos.   Talk to your nutritionist about adding a B Complex.  The B vitamins are water soluble, so any excess is easily excreted if not needed.  Consider adding additional Thiamine in the forms Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) or thiamine hydrochloride.   Thiamine is needed to help control electrolytes.  Without sufficient thiamine, the kidneys loose electrolytes easily resulting in low sodium and chloride.   We need extra thiamine when we're emotionally stressed, physically ill, and when we exercise regularly, are an athlete, or do physical labor outdoors, and in hot weather.  Your return to activities and athletics may have depleted your thiamine and other B vitamins to a point symptoms are appearing.   The deficiency symptoms of B vitamins overlap, and can be pretty vague, or easily written off as due to something else like being tired after a busy day.  The symptoms you listed are the same as early B vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially Thiamine.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms can appear in as little as three days.  I recognize the symptoms as those I had when I was deficient.  It can get much worse. "My symptoms are as follows: Dizziness, lightheaded, headaches (mostly sinus), jaw/neck pain, severe tinnitus, joint stiffness, fatigue, irregular heart rate, post exercise muscle fatigue and soreness, brain fog, insomnia.  Generally feeling unwell." I took a B 50 Complex twice a day and extra thiamine in the forms Benfotiamine and TTFD.  I currently take the Ex Plus supplement used in this study which shows B vitamins, especially Thiamine B 1, Riboflavin B2, Pyridoxine B 6, and B12 Cobalamine are very helpful.   A functional evaluation of anti-fatigue and exercise performance improvement following vitamin B complex supplementation in healthy humans, a randomized double-blind trial https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10542023/

Malabsorption of vitamins and minerals is common in celiac disease.  It's important to eat healthy nutrient dense diets like the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet that has similarities to the Mediterranean diet mentioned in one of the studies.   Is there a link between diet and painful temporomandibular disorders?
