Hello everyone..

My names mandy ..

After a long 14 month sof illness ..misery giving up my home etc..I THINK and hope I am on the right track..

I am doing challenge ready for biopsy as been so ill it all started after I had surgery and loads of antibiotics ..oh and also got made redundant after reporting sexual harrassement..so could be any one of these things that have triggered it..

My main symptoms are gi symptoms when it all started 14 months ago I had massive distention, constipation, diarreah, seizures, really bad deppression, anxiety, low self esteem, heart burn, pains in stomach, thick rash thing at base of my bum crack excuse my explanation!!!! I do suffer from herpes and thought it was that but I dont think it was now I am looking into this whole celiac thing..

Also, today my lip looks like I ve had btox and I have what I thought was a cold sore but does anyone get lots of little blisters on thier lips? I have 4 on my lip and one on my skin below my lip and you dont normally get them there do you??

May be its the stress of the challenge as I feel so ruff all the time and I am going out of my mind stuck in here as never feel up to go anywhere and I ve been signed off work til test got another 2 1/2 weeks yet ..

Oh well at least the sun is shinning ahey ...hope your all getting better..better..or recovering well

Take care everyone

:)Mand

just spreading some thoughts to people:

anyway, anyone who sees this should attempt a "no table salt or iodized salty food diet" for a few weeks. if you have the same lip/mouth area dh/acne then its worth doing. i have also changed my soap from the dial gel which you need the sponge thingy to a bar of white ivory.

if you do this lmk how it works out for you, also kosher salt is okay, so if you do and want to go out to eat bring a little w/ you.

only the best,

thanks about that tip about no salt. I have Dh and my son gets the mouth and lip blisters. So I hope this will make it better for both of us.

I only use dove, is that close enough to white ivory, or shouild i change to that.

not sure about dove, but i was told that as long as its not colored soap then it should be okay and that is what im going by. not exactly the most scientific approach, but it seems to be fine.

anyways, w/ the salt though i do recommend that you avoid iodized salt and anything salty for a few weeks and see how it goes. it can difficult, but just eat more fruit and you'll be fine!

lmk how it goes,

Stick with your Dove. They are safe. It is not the coloring in the soaps and shampoos and such we need to be careful of as 'Vitamin E', may be from wheat or soy, oats, wheat germ oil, and some of the vehicles for fragrances. Most products have a phone number or web site the safest thing to do with everything is to call the number. As a bonus many times the company will offer to send coupons or samples. Makes it doubly worth the call.

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen1Nc7EtAlJyJbU8EhB89ElCGFPRavEQkTFHv9V2Zh1EMAPRno7UajBpLCQ-1JfC5jKUyzfgsf7jN5L6yfZSgjhnwEbg6KKwWrKeghga8W_CAhEEw9N0.eDBrhYWsjgEFud6ZE03iun0-AEaGfNS1q4ILLjZz7Fs&dib_tag=se&keywords=buckwheat%2Bgroats&qid=1769980587&s=grocery&sprefix=buchwheat%2Bgroats%2Cgrocery%2C249&sr=1-4&th=1 Takes about 10 minutes to cook. Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
