I have not been posting much, this flu has completely wiped me out. So I haven't been to the store or able to cook, but I had to go to work (huge project) so I went and bought lunch.

Long story short... I got a veggie burger (w/out bun) instead of a plain hamburger, even after going through the order twice with the waitress.

I consumed one forkful before realizing it. The burger contained bulgar and breadcrumbs.

This was a 1pm

I was more upset than sad. I couldn't even eat anything else. Got my money back and left. Now in the middle of having the flu I am now freaking out that my digestive issues are about to go to the n power.

In a way I guess this will be a "test" as to whether or not I have celiac disease.

Any advice or time line for bodily response? (I have been gluten free for 6 months, some blood work indicative of celiac, some not, and biopsies that are "normal")

cursing like a truck driver,

Kristina

I'm sorry that happened. I have no idea what to expect. I usually get severly nauseated after being glutened...like within 25 minutes or so.

I also got a Yahoo messenger thing...chatting with Andrea right now, but I can't see the messages at all! Wierd! If anyone wants my name...PM me.

Thanks Kassandra.

I tried to puke it up, but I just couldn't.

I feel like a messed-up Mr. Wizard experimental body.

Aw Kristina, I'm so sorry that happened to you! I don't know of much to do except drink lots of water, and not even sure that would really help.

Lol Donna! Does it allow Yahoo messenger? My dad's work used to have all kinds of firewalls but he was allowed to use Yahoo for some reason.

I am pretty fast, but I have friends who type like freakin' speedsters! :D

Here's something I found about parasites and insomnia:

"Parasites produce a great deal of ammonia as their waste product. Ammonia is their equivalent of urine and it is set free in our bodies by parasites in large amounts. Ammonia is very toxic, especially to the brain. I believe this causes insomnia and other sleep problems at night and anxiety by day."

Also I found out that wormwood (humaworm ingredient) can cause insomnia.

That's interesting Sherry.

I had thought wormwood had a narcotic effect in the body. When I was taking wormwood/black walnut complex I always felt really fatigued.

Ok since we are talking about worms i have an question, i was just talking to my mom earlier today and she said when she was a kid she had worms and they made her sit over an bucket of hot water, but that is all she remembers, would that be pin worms or something else, and she remembers she was so sick as a child and so skinny and ill and everyone felt sorry for her. This would not be sent down to me would it?

I haven't talked much about my laser, but I use it pretty regularly. You're not supposed to do the detox stuff for 8 weeks, so I have been using the other "laser balancing" stuff.

This herx was the worst I've had in a long time. I don't know why .... but the Tindamax doesn't help! It was also my first month on Rifampin, so that could have contributed, too.

Anyway, this morning I decided to do the detox one for drugs. I feel better this afternoon and still have tomorrow to go on my Tindamax. I don't know that the drug compilation helped at all, but it didn't make me feel bad.

This laser, from what I understand, works the same as LED, but there aren't as many vials to choose from.

Well, I just thought I'd give you a laser update.

Here's info about the laser

Open Original Shared Link

Some here have used LED for detoxing .... I thought I'd try this laser, which is similar and something I can do at home. I thought that if I wanted to do more serious detoxing with lasers, then I could go to someone for the LED.

Hum, I don't know, lol. I've tried a few different chat rooms, but not Yahoo or MSN. Typing...I'm extra slow because I don't know all the shortcuts...I don't text, so I'd be typing out whole words, lol.

You must be close to my good friend (the one that I always travel with, lol). I am 6 months older than she is and she never lets me forget it. :lol:

And, Donna, you should have one. :)

Honestly, it's hard to tell whether I've had benefit from it or not. I know our parakeet has, LOL. That's why I wanted to start detoxing with it.

Kassandra, I take one every day.

Hey everyone, hi everyone hi.

Well it's been 3 days, no ice cream. :D

Went for laser therapy and acupuncture yesterday. It went well.

Dr. M. says I'm going to live. That's good news huh. :)

I hate acupunture. I don't like needles at all. Some don't hurt, some do. The one he put in my labia and in my gums hurt though. Is someone else going to start to see Dr. M.? Dee was mentioning it but he says we can't talk about other patients so the

conversation ceased. I bought some dried organic apricots from him, about 3 pounds worth for constipation, some unbuffered vitamin c. Man that stuff cleaned me out today which is good I suppose.

I'm at the library. It smells sooo perfumy in herer that I can taste it yuck.

Dee was getting dizzy after the laser therapy yesterday. She had to leave the room because of all the toxins coming off my body. SHe held my hand during acupunture. Like I was having a baby or something, and my hand was sweating, she could taste my toxins. She said they taste like iron. :blink:

I will be doing ecoffees now 2 to 3 times a week. Doc wants me doing them.

Well times almost up.

Take care guys

your friend

      Covid caused reoccurrence of DH without eating gluten

      By Jacki Espo · Posted

      This happened to me as well. What’s weirder is that within a couple hours of taking paxlovid it subsided. I thought maybe I got glutened but after reading your post not so sure.

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      By Mari · Posted

      Hi Tiffany. Thank you for writing your dituation and  circumstancesin such detail and so well writte, too. I particularly noticed what you wrote about brain for and feeling like your brain is swelling and I know from my own experiences that's how it feel and your brain really does swell and you get migraines.    Way back when I was in my 20s I read a book by 2 MD allergist and they described their patient who came in complaining that her brain, inside her cranium, was swelling  and it happened when she smelled a certain chemical she used in her home. She kept coming back and insisting her brain actually swelled in her head. The Drs couldn't explain this problem so they, with her permission, performed an operation where they made a small opening through her cranium, exposed her to the chemical then watched as she brain did swell into the opening. The DRs were amazed but then were able to advise her to avoid chemicals that made her brain swell. I remember that because I occasionally had brain fog then but it was not a serious problem. I also realized that I was becoming more sensitive to chemicals I used in my work in medical laboratories. By my mid forties the brain fog and chemicals forced me to leave my  profession and move to a rural area with little pollution. I did not have migraines. I was told a little later that I had a more porous blood brain barrier than other people. Chemicals in the air would go up into my sinused and leak through the blood brain barrier into my brain. We have 2 arteries  in our neck that carry blood with the nutrients and oxygen into the brain. To remove the fluids and used blood from the brain there are only capillaries and no large veins to carry it away so all those fluids ooze out much more slowly than they came in and since the small capillaries can't take care of extra fluid it results in swelling in the face, especially around the eyes. My blood flow into my brain is different from most other people as I have an arterial ischema, adefectiveartery on one side.   I have to go forward about 20 or more years when I learned that I had glaucoma, an eye problem that causes blindness and more years until I learned I had celiac disease.  The eye Dr described my glaucoma as a very slow loss of vision that I wouldn't  notice until had noticeable loss of sight.  I could have my eye pressure checked regularly or it would be best to have the cataracts removed from both eyes. I kept putting off the surgery then just overnight lost most of the vision in my left eye. I thought at the I had been exposed to some chemical and found out a little later the person who livedbehind me was using some chemicals to build kayaks in a shed behind my house. I did not realize the signifance  of this until I started having appointments with a Dr. in a new building. New buildings give me brain fog, loss of balance and other problems I know about this time I experienced visual disturbances very similar to those experienced by people with migraines. I looked further online and read that people with glaucoma can suffer rapid loss of sight if they have silent migraines (no headache). The remedy for migraines is to identify and avoid the triggers. I already know most of my triggers - aromatic chemicals, some cleaning materials, gasoline and exhaust and mold toxins. I am very careful about using cleaning agents using mostly borax and baking powder. Anything that has any fragrance or smell I avoid. There is one brand of dishwashing detergent that I can use and several brands of  scouring powder. I hope you find some of this helpful and useful. I have not seen any evidence that Celiac Disease is involved with migraines or glaucoma. Please come back if you have questions or if what I wrote doesn't make senseto you. We sometimes haveto learn by experience and finding out why we have some problems. Take care.       The report did not mention migraines.

      My only proof

      By Mari · Posted

      Hi Jmartes71 That is so much like my story! You probably know where Laytonville is and that's where I was living just before my 60th birthday when the new Dr. suggested I could have Celiacs. I didn't go on a gluten challange diet before having the Celiac panel blood test drawn. The results came back as equivical as one antibody level was very high but another, tissue transaminasewas normal. Itdid show I was  allergic to cows milk and I think hot peppers. I immediately went gluten free but did not go in for an endoscopy. I found an online lab online that would do the test to show if I had a main celiac gene (enterolab.com). The report came back that I had inherited a main celiac gene, DQ8, from one parent and a D!6 from the other parent. That combination is knows to sym[tons of celiac worse than just inheriting one main celiac gene. With my version of celiac disease I was mostly constipated but after going gluten-free I would have diarrhea the few times I was glutened either by cross contamination or eating some food containing gluten. I have stayed gluten-free for almost 20 years now and knew within a few days that it was right for me although my recovery has been slow.   When I go to see a  medical provide and tell them I have celiacs they don't believe me. The same when I tell them that I carry a main celiac gene, the DQ8. It is only when I tell them that I get diarrhea after eating gluten that they realize that I might have celiac disease. Then they will order th Vitamin B12 and D3 that I need to monitor as my B12 levels can go down very fast if I'm not taking enough of it. Medical providers haven't been much help in my recovery. They are not well trained in this problem. I really hope this helps ypu. Take care.
