Nausea and fatigue almost all day

@itarachiu,

We are supposed to have beneficial bacteria in our intestines.  

Rifaximin has been shown in early studies to promote the growth of beneficial intestinal bacteria.  You may want to consider taking a probiotic and continue taking B Complex vitamins as Rifaximin can cause vitamin deficiencies.  

So glad you are seeing improvement!

@itarachiu, Have you been checked for diabetes?  Your reactions after eating are similar to my reaction of high blood glucose.  Panic attacks can occur if blood glucose levels stay high for too l

@itarachiu, That brand of vitamins uses thiamine mononitrate, a form of thiamine that is not as well used by the body.   Other forms like Benfotiamine or Thiamax (thiamine tetrahydrofurfuryl

The microbial density increases from the stomach to the rectum (Figure 1), with low densities in the small intestine.

Not really sterile, my mistake. I think I heard that to Dr. Mark Pimentel on YouTube, he is researching SIBO and all that stuff.

@knitty kitty

I tried probiotics(powder) before antibiotics, they pretty much did nothing however before probiotics(powder) I tried for a month to drink kefir(milk) and it really improved my digestion, specially better digestion for the first meal in the morning but nothing more. Now my plan is to use rounds of 10 days on antibiotics + herbs and then 5 days of probiotics(as powder) and kefir(milk) but without anbiotics. Taking antibiotics and probiotics in the same time I think is useless. I will do this for a few months at least, what I do know is the fact that is working.

Yes, @itarachiu, taking antibiotics and probiotics together is rather useless.  However, since Rifaximin promotes the good bacteria naturally in the intestines, boosting those with a probiotic containing good bacteria like Lactobacillis should still be beneficial. 

Finishing the antibiotics first, then follow up with probiotics is a good plan, too.

Hey @itarachiu, Have you investigated any other Biofilm disruptor other than NAC?

Not yet, I'm pretty happy with for the moment with this one. I guess it's working because I do feel better.

      gluten-free British Virgin Islands Travel

      By Joel K · Posted

      A year later, I can say (1) I've sailed around in the BVIs now twice since my original posting on this subject and found several restaurants that were safe for me.  I was happy to see most of the larger restaurants had at least someone who could answer questions if no mention was made in the menus.  And (2) I was sad to see that none of the bars or restaurants in Cane Garden Bay, Tortola, were safe for folks with celiac disease, especially since I used to live there quite a while back but had not yet been diagnosed. For the record, Road Town in Tortola had two places I could eat relatively safely in public: The Village Inn Marina restaurant, because the kitchen is outside and I could speak directly with the chef (servers aren't much help in knowing, but are helpful if you ask them to ask the chef), and Capriccio di Mare, which is a short hike from Village Cay.  Again, servers, not so much.  But the owner/manager is very visible and accessible and she's got celiac down to a tee.  She even makes sure there are gluten-free desserts available! As for the other British Virgins: Virgin Gorda: There's a place in Leverick Bay and another at Saba Rock resorts where we can eat safely.  I didn't make it down to Spanishtown on either trip due to weather.  Above The Baths was another place supposed to be another place, but I have that on hearsay from one of my non-celiac disease shipmates. Marina Cay: Lots of gluten-free options and I felt quite safe eating there. Jost Van Dyke: Foxy's had someone who knew what I could have safely, and they included most everything on the menu.  Some weren't, but the lady could tell me which. Norman Island: The Pirate's Bight restaurant is about as safe as it gets down there.  Servers are clued in, food was marked on the menu and plates when they came out.  Leave it to BVI to have the safest gluten-free restaurant on an unhabited island! No problem, mon. Anegada: We ate at the Lobster Trap and at Potter's.  Good stuff, Maynard! I have to say, most of the restaurants make real food rather than processed, out-of-the-packet/box food down there.  So as long as you stick to whole foods, you're more than likely fine.  I did use my GliadinX product the first time I went down there last November in all the places I ate ashore.  But not the second time in April.  Especially in the places where the locals remembered me.  I actually felt safer in most places down in the BVIs than most restaurants in my own hometown in New Hampshire.

      To kiss or not to kiss: Can gluten pass through a smooch?

      By Beverage · Posted

      My college aged step grand daughter, diagnosed with Celiacs 2 years ago, did get a reaction after kissing her new boyfriend. It was driving her nuts trying to figure it out until I asked her if she'd been kissing anybody. She went beet red. They did some testing of the situation, and thought that was the source.  For her, having him drink something and rinse out his mouth didn't do enough.  He started carrying a little toothbrush and toothpaste around with him.  I noticed he started kissing the back of her hand instead of her face from time to time, so dang cute.  She hasn't had the problem since, and still with that nice young man that was so considerate and willing to do a little change for her.

      Caribbean Sailing with Celiac

      By Joel K · Posted

      Thanks, and I'm excited about it.  I just hope I get some interest in it here and quickly.  I'm planning on trying to go to contract soon with BVI Yacht Charters in Tortola, whom I've contracted with before.

      nuts.com -- no longer Celiac safe?

      By Beverage · Posted

      I contacted nuts.com and they responded with: They are not shared on processed lines or contaminants. They are on an exclusively gluten free line.

      Rigorous exercise + inflammation/fatigue?

      By Parkrunner · Posted

      I am following the COMB study as documented in the NIH PubMed web site. This involves calcium, magnesium, strontium,  DHA, vitamin D, and vitamin K2-MK7. If I don't consume the nutrients in my diet I take supplements.  My second bone density test showed significant improvement without taking drugs as my GI doc predicted. My case is several standard deviations from normal, so common medical advice for osteoporosis doesn't apply.
