I was diagnosed a number of years ago but recently I've started to get dehydrated often and alot of dry skin especially around eyes and ears. Also when I overheat I get a tingling feeling all over my body, sometimes quite painful.

Has anybody had similar problems and what remedies do you suggest 

Cheers Rich

Hi @Richard1973 and welcome to the forum.

I did go through a period of feeling thirsty all the time and my first thoughts went to asking my GP to test me for diabetes.   Have you had a test for this condition as if not I think that would be the first thing to rule out?  

If you were suffering from diabetes, either Type I or Type 2, I've read that can cause dry skin and paresthesia.

@Richard1973, welcome to the forum! 

@cristiana is on the right track, stay hydrated. 

Also have your potassium level checked.  Low potassium causes dry skin and dehydration.  

We need Thiamine B1 to keep our potassium level correct.  Without sufficient thiamine, we lose potassium and our skin loses moisture.  

Ask your doctor about supplementing with vitamins and minerals.  The Gluten free diet can be lacking in the eight essential B vitamins, Omega Threes and minerals.

      If you have hemorrhoids 1x weekly I don't see how you have time to heal from one episode before you experience another one, unless each one is a very minor event. Have you consulted a physician about your hemorrhoid issue? It's not normal to be having an episode every week unless it is really one episode that is not completely healing between weekly...

      No I haven't had one since 2021. I rarely have more than 1 per week.

      Sorry, I see that now as I reread your original post. You say you have hemorrhoids "only once a week" now. When I develop hemorrhoids, which is once every few years now, it generally takes 3-4 days for healing to take place. So, it doesn't seem like you could have much relief time between episodes if you have them weekly. Have you had a lower GI scoping done...

      Celiac disease symptoms

      Everyday I eat a medium to large apple in the morning and a large banana at night. I eat a cup of oatmeal in the evening. The ezekiel wheat bread I eat has a good amount of fiber. I haven't dealt with constipation for at least a year. Most of the time my feces are soft.

      It's not uncommon to experience some bleeding with hemorrhoids but I doubt enough to materially effect your iron levels. About your constipation. Are you getting enough fiber in your diet? 25-30 grams per day is the adult recommendation. Eggs and chicken have zero fiber. One medium apple or one average banana will have about 3 g. of fiber.

A serving of oatmeal will have 3-4 g. Just to give you an idea. It's harder than you think to get 25-30 g of fiber. You have to plan for it and work at it. Getting plenty of hydration is important as well.
