Anxiety Through The Roof

Oh man- I had my second panic attack in a week today after a gazillion years of not having ONE. :angry: I got glutened and re-glutened (toothpaste- Sensodyne) and my hubby had a stroke 2 weeks ago. He's doing fine now, but had some testing today (which came back great). I tried to nap this afternoon because my body was exhausted but my heart and brain wouldn't stop moving for a second. I'm pretty sure it's the gluten, but I feel so depressed and anxious right now.

I meditated as I lay in bed for about half hour- that didn't help. I'm having one of those "I want to escape my body" days. :(

It's my Viking pose. :P

I never mentioned them because I haven't had one in so long and the last one was clearly gluten. I'm just tired and Kurt is still "happy" from the sedatives so I don't want to harsh his mellow. :D

You know Bev, it might just be that you're trying to "come down" from the events of the past 2 weeks. Add the gluten in, and and the anxiety gets the upper hand so to speak. I would think as the gluten effects fade, the anxiety will go back where it came from--and hopefully stay put! I know that when I get CC, the anxiety always comes back. Feel better soon :)

Bev, I'm sorry about the gluten, your panic attack and your husband's stroke. I get panic attacks, and know how horrible they are. You have more than one reason to have one, the glutening just being the last straw, I am sure. I hope that both you and hubby will be better soon.

I went through a period of time, after being in the hospital, of having multiple panic attacks. It is a miserable state. Biofeedback was a huge help to me...but I had to learn to control my anxiety with breathing, learning to calm myself. Also--going out, taking a walk, turning on a tv show to get your mind off of it all can help temporarily. Thoughts for you today....

I'm so glad you're feeling better -- I had one of those after my birthday two weeks ago (cross contamination at a picnic) -- wasn't fun and was combined with a very weird encounter with my ex -- I had two nights of total insomnia and I also unsuccessfully tried to meditate my way through them.

Just wanted to send you a hug. Hope you feel better soon. I get the anxiety and irritability to go with it. I'm just lovely when glutened! :P

Thanks for asking- it's up and down. Anxiety seems to have died down. Now I'm just weepy and sad. I'm sure it's everything catching up with me. Just need some rest. And a big hug.

      FDA Moves to Improve Gluten Labeling—What It Means for People With Celiac Disease

      My question I have proposed to the FDA through their website is why Prescription and OTC drug manufacturers are not required to list what binding ingredients were used to bine the drug? They list this on Capsules which are made of cellulose but not on pills? As it stands I or my pharmacist must contact the manufacturer to find out and my list is long from...

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
