I have been feeling icky the past 4 days. My joints and body ache, neuropathy is back in my fingers, brain fog, migraine or nasty headache every day and indegstion! I have been gluten-free for 5 months now and have been feeling great!! I am sure I did not get gluten as I have not gotten any tummy issues. But I am not sure what it is!! I hope it is not another food intolerance! Any thoughts?

Becky,

Have you added anything new to your diet recently? Even supplements or vitamins? I started feeling a bit better after eliminating gluten but found that I had problems with other foods as well (all grains/beans etc). A number of us have reacted to things in nutritional supplements that are supposedly 'allergen free.' It seems as though brain fog, migraines and aches can be caused by MSG and other additives too.

The thread "OMG...I Think I'm on to Something" on the board has a discussion that's helped me a lot. It's concerning MSG and the names it is hidden under...there are at least a few of us who have been gluten free but are still having problems, and are wondering if hidden MSG has been making us sick.

Hopefully you'll find something helpful there. I'll keep my fingers crossed that you figure out what's been making you feel bad, and that you start to get some relief. :)

Maybe you have the flu.

maybe just a virus... if you are being really careful about cc, and you haven't added anything new, maybe double check your products to make sure an ingredient hasn't changed, but more likely a virus... hope you are feeling better!

I thought I got glutened the other day because the brain fog was starting to set in. The next day I woke up with a head cold and never got the stomach symptoms. Fortunately, the cold went away in a day or two, unlike the week to ten days I used to get them before going gluten-free.

So, you could just have a virus like someone mentioned. It's easy to always blame it on gluten especially when brian fog is involved!

      Fighting for a name

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!
