DHC — Mystery Diagnosis

Lethal Diet

Parents Ed and Jane try to figure out why their son, Alex, is so unsteady on his feet, and why he has recurring sinus infections. A 31-year-old woman begins gaining weight and complaining of oily skin, hair loss, body cramps, and irritable bowel syndrome.

Sounds like it! To bad I dont have cable...

They will be airing "Like Mother Like Son" on April 9, at 1PM--this was the Celiac episode that has been on before. The "Lethal Diet" sounds good--I wonder if it will also involve Celiac?

It was ok--it was the story of a little boy, who would go into a trance-like state. The gluten was affecting him that way, and even though his mom is a Celiac, he was not tested for quite a while. Once off gluten, he thrived, and is fine today. His story is very atypical--I didn't even realize they were talking about Celiac at the beginning. On the same episode, there is a story of a woman who had a heart problem--her symptoms, and personal problems leading up to her diagnosis looked more like my Celiac experience! :blink:

HI PATTY--IF YOU'VE CK'D THE 'RADMAN' THREAD OF SYMPTOMS..DIDN'T SOME PEOPLE TAKE ABOUT BEING (SPACED OUT AS KIDS)??? WONDER IF THIS WOULD BE GOOD FOR SOME OF THEM TO SEE.

THIS ONE ON SUNDAY NITE LOOKS LIKE IT MIGHT ADDRESS THE ISSUE OF celiac disease AND OBESITY???THAT WOULD BE GOOD FOR A CHANGE..I'LL TAPE IT IF VINCENT WANT'S ME TOO.

Yea--it definately focuses on the neurologic symptom--although they do have doctors talking more about Celiac towards the end of the segment. I think it would be interesting for anyone here--each individual story is only 20 min. long--they did 3, if I remember correctly, on this episode. I plan on tivo-ing the "Fatal Diet" episode--it sounds good!

I know--no yard work today :D

did anyone watch it tonight?

I'm taping at 12:30 now and still not sure this is it???

well, with the camel hump, maybe cushings..?

another comercial..do i sound bored here :angry: ah well..took me 15 years to get dx'd so maybe this long show isn't too bad. :)

Yep, it's cushings, I was tested for that but during the 7 days 24/7 urine collection (fun to do at work) they LOST ONE OF THE JUGS, so said, heck with it...Interesting.

Have to see what my cordisol levels are Hummm???

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By Aussienae · Posted

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By ButWhatCanIEat · Posted

      Good morning,   I got an email about replies to this post. Some of my doctors had blamed a slipped disc for the pain I had and that contributes, but after meeting with a gastroenterologist AGAIN and trying some lifestyle modifications, I found out I have IBS and can't tolerate corn or excessive fructose to any degree. Cutting out corn AFTER having cut out all gluten containing products was a real pain but I feel much better now!

      Isolated DPG-Iga

      By trents · Posted

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.

      Lymph nodes

      By Soleihey · Posted

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.
