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 thought I had osteoprosis but did not find it on my record.  I know I have stenosisof the spine.  I also have Sarcoidosis and diabetes.

      I am 64.   I have struggled with a combination of diarrhea and constipation most of my life. Yes I have osteoporosis.  I have been taken magnesium citrate with calcium and d 3 and zinc.  I take b12 and my latest blood work showed it to be high 2000. My other blood work showed low rbc, hemacrit, hemoglobin and Ferrin.  My gastroentologist didn’t say anything just told me to go gluten free and check blood in 3 months. I have had 2 lumbar disc surgeries and 2 cervical spine surgeries

      Welcome to the forum @Tarp! Some more information would be helpful. What is your age? What led you to investigate celiac diagnosis 11 years ago? What were your symptoms then? Do you have osteoporosis/osteopenia? What areas of the spine have been involved with your four surgeries?  As you probably know, celiac disease damages the lining of the small bowel which typically results in malabsorption of vitamins and minerals. This, in turn, can result in bone demineralization and as well as neurological disorders. Because of your spinal surgeries, it might be difficult to sort out what is causing what. Are there nutrient deficiency related neurological problems going on? Are there nerve impingement problems going on from the surgeries? Both? Having said that, it's a pretty safe bet that you would do well to invest in some high potency vitamin and mineral supplementation to address the malabsorption problem. We routinely recommend a high potency B-complex, magnesium glycinate or magnesium citrate (not magnesium oxide), D3 (5000 IU daily) and zinc. Most of these in this list are vital to neurological health. Make sure all are gluten free. Costco's Nature Made and Kirkland Signature products are a good choice and reasonably priced.

      I am at a loss with spine issues. I have had 4 spine surgeries.  These were=all before my celiac diagnosis.  Currently I am dealing with chest pain arm pain and burning with increased weakness in my legs.  I have had bowel incontinence for 6 months.  I had a nuclear stress test and heart issues were ruled out.  I can not get a doctor to listen to me and diagnose me.  I am afraid I will end paralyzed. I had a question of celiac 11 years ago and then was told I did not have it.  Last month it was finally confirmed by biopsy.
