Ears pressure…

Hi. Some update on me. I do feel better since started Lexapro,no issues with BM and less GI problems. I’m taking the lowest dose of Lexapro which is 5mg every night. I do have this weird feeling of pressure in my ears on and off. When I was diagnosed with celiac disease I had ringing in my ears because of anemia and low ferritin but now it’s different it’s more like pressure. I do follow gluten-free diet and overall feel better. Can’t understand if it’s Lexapro side effects or something else. It’s like deep In my both ears sometimes like mild pain. And what I also noticed my blood pressure dropped after gluten-free diet. It used to be 115-80 now it’s constantly 99/80.Did anyone else experience that with ear pressure and blood pressure?

thank you 

Saba

My ear pressure was due to dairy products.  I had to give up dairy.

hi, saba, i'm glad you're doing better!  i have ear pressure if the wind blows, lolz, if i am in the car, a change in elevation will make my ears go crazy.   also, change in barometric pressure (weather changes) and airplanes.  try chewing gum?  might help with pressure - that's what they tell you to do on the airplane.  i know double bubble is gluten-free for sure.  plus, i love bubble gum lolz

Hi Arlene,how are you ?:) it’s something new,I feel like pressure in my head and ears on and off. Maybe it’s because of the Lexapro. It’s been more than a month. You know it says that SSRI medication start to work after 4-6 weeks,maybe I’ve just started to develop side effects also feel fatigue

      EGD with flatten mucosa

      This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests...

      Young celiac person looking for advice

      Hello, I’m only 20 and recently got diagnosed with celiac disease. I’ve been gluten free for around 2-3 months now but still feel miserable with bouts of gi symptoms that can come and go. I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong since I’ve cut back on a lot of food and eat more Whole Foods alongside using my own plates and such to avoid possible sites of cross ...

      Refractory Coeliac Disease research to reduce anxiety

      Does this require proof of having refractory celiac? I’ve been gluten free for a couple months but still feel miserable but I’m not sure if its refractory celiac disease.

      EGD with flatten mucosa

      Welcome to the forum, @HeloIP! There are some other diseases, some medications (NSAIDs, olmesartan) and even some other food protein intolerances (the dairy protein casein) that can cause flattened villi in the duodenum but the most likely cause is celiac disease. Your GI doc may want to run some blood work to check for antibodies that are specific...

One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong since I’ve cut back on a lot of food and eat more Whole Foods alongside using my own plates and such to  avoid possible sites of cross continuation. Recently my gi symptoms seemed to have gotten better but now I’m having a tension headache and some bouts of anxiety which were characteristic of my state when I first started out in the gluten free diet. Am I doing something wrong for these symptoms to come and go randomly??? Or is this normal for the healing process...

Your GI doc may want to run some blood work to check for antibodies that are specific to celiac disease as a follow-up so, in case he/she does, don't start a gluten-free diet until that blood draw is done.
