Numb burning thigh, constant night sweats and very angry most of the time. Am i going nuts?

Ive was diognosed celiac disease 9 months ago. Ive had 5 or 6 bouts of CC exposure in that time. Each time it happens i get violent vomiting, sweat buckets, no real stomach pain just nausea and vomiting for 24 hours, im also feezing cold and cant get warm. Im then left confused, fatigued and ussually lose half a stone each time. 

My question is, in between bouts im still sweating nightly and struggling with anger issues and my right thigh is constantly numb and burns and tingles and is much worse in the morning.

Welcome to the forum, Mathew!

I suspect you have something else going on in addition to your celiac disease but it will be hard to tell unless you can eliminate the regular CC. If I do the math you are getting CC'd about every 6 weeks and your body may not be recovering fully in between episodes of CC. At any rate, I would involve a physician in this matter. The numbness only in one thigh sounds like it could be a spinal issue, maybe a pinched nerve or something. We have had other forum members reporting night sweats but I'm not sure if this is tied to celiac disease or something else.

Thanks pal appreciate that. Docs dont know why im sweating at night all bloods were fine although my thyroid was slightly over active. I have more blood tests next week but i assume they will come back as fine as the ussually do.

I think the only way for you to eliminate gluten as the culprit for all of the issues you're having would be to be 100% gluten-free for several months or longer. Only then will you know for sure how it might be affecting you.

You might look up meralgia paresthetica to see if it describes your thigh symptoms. I used to have it, due to a nerve being compressed, and it was worse at night when I was lying flat on my back.

I found that sleeping with a pillow under my knee helped a lot.

      I would hesitate to recommend tetracycline or any antibiotic as a long term therapy option because of the negative impact it has on the gut biome. I took it for years as a teenager for acne and I'm convinced it was a contributing factor in my having developed celiac disease.

      Welcome to the forum, @Pamp8, I stopped foods high in iodine, like dairy and eggs, kelp and iodized salt.   I take Niacinamide also called Nicotinamide or Vitamin B3.  I haven't taken the tetracycline with it.   It seems to make the blisters disappear quicker. I also use tallow balm, a cream made from beef fat, which has been used for thousands of years.  It is absorbed into the skin better than creams made from plants.  It helps prevent or lesson scarring.  See the study below. Two Cases of Dermatitis Herpetiformis Successfully Treated with Tetracycline and Niacinamide "The combination of tetracycline and nicotinamide can be recommended as a useful therapy for patients where dapsone is not available or for patients who do not tolerate dapsone." https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30390734/

      First off, I’m so sorry you’ve been dealing with this for so long—being sick for half your life is unimaginably tough, and it’s huge that you’ve finally gotten some answers. A celiac diagnosis can feel overwhelming (especially on top of being vegan!), but it’s also a turning point. Your body is about to start healing, and that’s hopeful! This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):    
    • Scott Adams
      Yes, it is likely your villi healed, but if you are exposed to gluten regularly again the damage will likely come back and cause some potentially serious health issues.

      Hey yall! I am dealing with a new diagnosis. I have been sick in some sort of way for 10 years. I am 22. I can’t remember a time in the last decade I have not had some strange symptom. This last year it got way worse. I lost 40 pounds and had to drop out of school. I ended up getting and endo and blood tests and got positive results for celiac. I am looking for advice of ANY type. I am vegan so this is a big adjustment to add this to my diet. Thansk fro the help.
