I was flipping through chanals just now since I didn't wish to listen to the president to come accros a Montel show. They told a lady thats what she had (some psycic lady was on there). They said Montel's daughter has celiac. He was infasizing how many things have gluten in it including things most people wouldn't think of.

That's really interesting because I know he was diagnosed with MS several years ago. Wonder if he's been tested for celiac.

I Tivo'd it, too! We get it at 2PM here, so it's probably about over.

I emailed his show last year, and never got a response. :(

I just saw it! Cool!

The only thing is that they didn't really say that gluten is more than just wheat - and Montel kept saying to look for the word "gluten" on wrapper. Siigh, if only it were that easy!

Hey, I'm just happy to get a mention out there.

They have suggested that all with MS should be tested for celiac.

"They have suggested that all with MS should be tested for celiac.

I was dx with Celiac in 2002. I continued having some of the same symptons as before. Such as unsteady gait, fatigue, memory problems and shaking. I was also dx with Ms in 2004. I am blessed with both.

I heard him say his daughter cannot have gluten and then Sylvia Browne said people need to be tested to an intolerance to gluten, that's close to what was said anyway

This is interesting...on this past Wednesday I was looking at his "Predictions for 2007" show. I don't usually watch during the times when he has Sylvia Brown on, but I was flipping through T.V. shows looking for something to watch when I heard her mention that next year it will be proven that food (allergies/intolerances) is a/the major cause of depression . DUH!!! The first thing that popped into my mind was that a lot of people with Celiac already know that! I missed the show where it was mentioned that one of his daughters has Celiac - he really needs to do a show on the topic!!! I wonder why he hasn't...

      Definitely worth speaking to your gastroenterologist about this.

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      I did get the pneumonia vaccine about 4 years ago. I had this amazing allergist who did all those vitamin deficiencies test and told to get that vaccine. Unfortunately she retired. I haven’t been to an allergist in a few years, I’m not sure what my levels are now. I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Yes I do have acid reflux. I’m not on anything for it at the moment. I sometimes wonder if that’s what it could be because I get heart burn every night. I may revisit my gastrointestinal doctor again. Thanks for the reply

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways. I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux. Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Since initially getting your D checked a few years ago, has it since rebounded to normal levels? Sounds like at some point you got it checked again.

I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young etc. But yes I think I should at the very least get a different opinion. Thank you for your reply

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways.  I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux.  Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following a holiday to France in 2019, where I had been exposed to gluten.    The reflux continued into the autumn and winter, my throat itched to begin with, particularly after meals, but it then that feeling of irritation seemed to spread to my lungs.  I even found it difficult to breathe on occasion. What stopped it in its tracks was using a wedge pillow at night, following a reflux diet (you can find them online), not eating 2-4 hours before bed and also having a dose of Gaviscon Advanced at night, which forms a barrier so that acid/food can't go back up your esophagus.  The throat irritation faded, and then I found it easier to breathe again. Just mentioning in case it could be a contributing factor.
