Dizziness

Just wondering if anyone has experienced true spinning veritgo in relationship to Celiacs disease?

I was sick this weekend my stomach had been bothering me for a week. I felt vertigo was coming from my stomach. I have only been eating a little of this and that for now. I looked up gastric vertigo but it got into ulcers and cancer nothing about celiacs disease. Anyway just trying to figure this one out.

Well, I can't say the whole room spun or anything, but I was finding it somewhat difficult to maintain good balance before taking a sublingual methylcobalamin (vitamin B12).

That aside, I had rooms spinning, beds flipping, and all that stuff from intestinal yeast overgrowth (it was likely candida). For that, staying off all yeasts and sugars did wonders, as did the caprylic acid I took for the first month or two.

Hope you get the answers you need soon!

Oh my YES! In fact, it was a very scary bout with vertigo that made me finally starting looking into the possibility of a connection with celiac disease. I have no proof the two were connected, but when this happened I had eaten a ton of gluten foods the day before it happened, and it came on suddenly, and it hasn't happened since (that was 16 months ago) , so I have my suspicions! :P

I used to get vertigo a lot. SInce going gluten-free, it has just about disappeared. I'm currently treating myself for Candida, and I'm having a pretty intense die off period. Last night before bed I had vertigo for the first time in a while. It kind of feels like the back of my head vibrates and then the room spins. I also get it before bad migraines. Emerging research suggests that Candida can cause celiac disease, which is what I believe happened to me. So I know that for myself, the cause of the vertigo has to be either celiac disease or Candida. But since Candida is so prevalent with celiac disease, it's hard to truly distinguish between the two when it comes to symptoms.

Thanks everyone for your replies. I was doing better eating just a little and then today ate more normal and back to getting the spins. It seems to happen though at the computer when my chair swivels. I have inner ear problems anyway so maybe thats it. Just seems like I have alot of throwing up and D. I also have perinious anemia so maybe that is involved also. Your thoughts are greatly appreciated.

      10 years later, my celiac is progressing

      By GardeningForHealth · Posted

      As a side note, it seems that medical science has evolved in the past 5-6 years regarding Celiac Disease, and I am now catching up. It seems that anything that disrupts the microbiome sufficiently enough can--in genetically susceptible individuals--lead to Celiac Disease. I have been reading now that antibiotics, excessive simple carbohydrates such as refined sugars and starches, the manner of birth such as C-section vs vaginal delivery, the diversity of one's diet, the presence of certain bacteria or viruses, can all contribute to microbiome dysbiosis, which can lead to Celiac. This is fascinating research.

      10 years later, my celiac is progressing

      By GardeningForHealth · Posted

      I mostly eat healthy. My diet has varied over the past 10 years but mostly consisted of meals I cooked at home made from scratch. Ingredients I used over the years include (not in order): non-wheat grains such as teff, sorghum, millet, and eggs, butter, cheese, some milk, meat (poultry, red meat, but very little processed meat), gluten-free baked bread (mostly Canyon Bakehouse brand), vegetables, fruits, nuts, legumes, peanuts, chocolate (not in the past 6 months). However, the mistakes I made in my diet are that I consumed too much sugar and carbohydrates from gluten-free baked goods that I baked myself at home such as gluten-free dessert items, and also I ate pretty much the same exact meals over and over, so a great lack of diversity in what I ate. I got lazy. I think this messed up my microbiome. The meals I ate were mostly healthy though. I always made sure to eat vegetables and fruits on a daily basis.  I have checked for nutrient deficiencies over the years and I am sometimes low in Vitamin D. I started supplementing it after that. What concerns me is the progressive nature of the food intolerances, which indicates the gut is not healing and has been leaking all along.

      It sounds like you're dealing with a complex situation, and I can understand how frustrating it must be not to have a clear answer. Gut health can indeed play a significant role in various aspects of our well-being, including hair health.

      Thiamine supplementation

      By Celiac16 · Posted

      I have found similar benefits from thiamine. I was diagnosed with celiac at 16 and never really recovered despite strict gluten and dairy free diet and no detectable antibodies on checkup bloodworks. I’ve tried stopping the b1 but start to feel bad again- I wanted my doctors to do more extensive testing for the different thiamine transporters and enzymes which would be a better indication if I was deficient or dependent on it but everyone dismisses it (there are know genetic mutations where you need to take it daily for life). I have looked into Thiamine Responsive Megablast Anemia and I have a lot of the more mild symptoms of the disease that manifest when thiamine isn’t given to the patient such as optic neuritis… I just find the parallels interesting. i think that celiacs could be a side issue of inflammation that resulted from vitamin deficiencies. I was eating a lot of sugar leading up to my diagnosis and since eating gluten free didn’t make me feel much better, I’m wondering if this was more the underlying issue (sugar heavily depletes b1). I usually take 1.5g thiamine a day.

      Waiting for urgent referral.

      Thank you for your welcome and reply.  Yes I've been carefully reading labels looking for everything in bold and have been amazed by what I have seen. However Heinz tomato and basil soup is wheat free so I m thinking I already have ulcers?  The acid could be causing the pain . My pain always starts in one place then follows the same route through me . GP confirmed that is the route of our digestive system.  So much pain from stabbing to tearing. If I throw in milk with lactose it's horrific.  Many years of it now, won't go into details but been seeing a consultant for a supposedly different problem . Wondering what damage has been done over the years. Many thanks for your reply. Wishing you the very best.
