Actually I accidentally came upon this sight while looking up websites on Johnny Rivers. When I clicked on google search for him, just a few sites down was this the mention of gluten free web site and his name within that post. I found that rather unusual so I clicked on it. I clicked on it, to see where someone named, Dingogirl made a post about him.

Johnny Rivers is a WONDERFUL singer, and I have seen him and had the pleasure of meeting him! He has the bluest eyes, and he sounds even better now than ever. What a handsome man! The few times that I have spoken to him, he has been so generous, soft spoken and his concerts (the couple that I have attended are never a let down.) It would be great to talk to any fans that he might have here! I have enjoyed his 60's music since for a long time. So anyway, I was looking at this site, and became intrigued by this forum on gluten free diet. I plan on reading a lot to see what this diet is all about and see if it could help me. I have had some digestive problems, as well as thyroid problems, and wonder if this could help me. First I need to get educated. So maybe I have come to a place where not only can I find out if this site could help me physically, but might meet a few people who enjoy Johnny Rivers music! Ok, I'm back to seeing if I can find any websites about Johnny Rivers to read about, that is how I got here as I said. Looking forward to hearing from anyone here. Looking forward to reading more on this Gluten Free Diet!! :)

Welcome, with hopes you can learn a little from us, but I expect more from DingoGirl :P

Oh, my, the world wide web. I, too, once googled a medical inquiry and found my OWN post.

DingoGirl, there is someone at the door for you. :P

Excuse the double post. When I tried to reply it said I couldn't reply, so I tried again, and oops.....then there were two. It might take me awhile to get used to posting, so meanwhile bear with me, please. From what I have read so far, it seems that there are a lot of very caring and understanding people here, and you have a lot of fun thrown into it all!

Hi Jackie & welcome to our celiac world.

Yes, you probably will learn more here than you probably want to know.Celiac disease is a complex mix of symptoms, everyone feeling just a tad different.....

I would suggest that some testing be done because if this is your problem you would want to get a handle on it asap.

And I agree Johnny Rivers is great........

hope you enjoy this site full of educational & some uneducational info.......

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Fighting for a name

      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.

      Celiac getting dentures

      @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.
