A Thank You For Nancy And Rachel


Lisa

I wanted to thank Nancy and Rachel for their research and their willingness to share with all of us.

I have been feeling very poorly this past month. While reading some of the research that Nancy made available, I came across a possible reason for this.

"Long term use of antacids effects and hinders the absorption of B-12".

I have been taking 2,500mcg of B-12 (sublingual) for three days and the fog is lifting, I feel more alert and the shaking has stopped. It has also saved me significant money for further testing. Currently, additional B-12 appears to be the "cure".

So, I just wanted them to know how much the research presented here for us to learn is truly appreciated. Rachel has never failed to give be a very detailed answer to my questions. I recall her saying, "that if it makes one person feel better, it's worth it". Thank you both.

I am very happy to be the the recipient of their work.

Thank you.

Lisa

:o I didn't know that! That is certainly something to remember.

Thank you Nancy, Rachel and Lisa ... I'm going to send that info to my daughter too, who does take more antacids than I do.

Wow! That terrific. :) I've been taking lots of extra B vitamins too and my brain is feeling very perky. Not sure if it is the B vitamins or just more time on the gluten-free/CF diet. But I was having pin prick feelings, a weird vibration in my intestines and other weird neurological effects. Plus I read that folic acid helps alzhemiers patients... not that I'm ready for that label yet but some days I felt I wasn't far from it!

Also, I found a medication I'm taking blocks folic acid so I just KNEW I should get more of it.

The research on Vit. D. is really interesting too: Open Original Shared Link

I can't go into the sun because my skin is very sensitive so I'm taking oily D3. Hopefully it is doing good stuff in there. :D

Thank you Lisa!!! I'm an information addict. I'm always glad to know when people benefit from the research I like to do.

I agree with you about Rachel. Rachel was one of the people here who welcomed me and made it so much easier for me when I first found out about celiac.

:D

      Hi Scott, yes I have had symptoms for years and this is the second GI I have seen and he could not believe I have never been tested. He called later today and I am scheduled for an endoscopy. Is there a way to tell how severe my potential celiac is from the results above? What are the chances I will have the biopsy and come back negative and we have to keep searching for a cause?

      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.

      What kind of stool test was done? Can you be more specific? 
    • mishyj
      Perhaps I should also have said that in addition to showing a very high response to gluten, her stool study showed that she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that.
