Hi ya all..

I did the gluten challenge back in May and was negatove on biopsy so dietian at work (hospital said right your malnourised lets get some food in you. so carried on eating gluten felt ill but thought may be its just malnourished???

Then my skin on my face changed big time when I smile it has fine lines all over some one has told me its massive dehydration since...

any way my family have been very nasty as whilst eating it all I was very depressed again..mum said go on antidepressants tried them felt wierd (maize starch in them)??? any way on the second night on tablets my mum woke me at 3 am said your sisters covered in blood police are bringing her in...I jumped up out of bed was alseep..anhd when looked in mirror my face was lop sided and my neck taught my heart was pounding and couldnt stop going to the loo..number 2s..

I lost about 3/4 a stone..white as a gost..i went doctors next day he said may be bels palsy..but since then Ive noticed I am weaker on right side and my neck really hurts..he said get of tablets as they have maize starch in them you could be cleiac..??? I said dont you start thought I wasnt ..

My hair has been like straw, my skin is so badly dehydrated cant put make up on as it sits in the creases...and my face is slightly lopsided...please if any one can help Id appreciate it..

I had endocrine appointment and thyroid slightly low..so not done any thing about that..

I got back on diet 3 days ago started feeling a bit better hair felt better..but today I feel very fatigued ..heart burn, constipated, dry hair again and skin..big black circles and down..

The only thing I have done different is:

I had fry light oilve oil spray which has E number, litchen, alchahol, olive oile, emplusifier..but says gluten free????

I had gluten free fafel patties which contain yellow peas, garlic, tumeric, salt, herbs and spices but is made by gluten free brand??

Been drinking nescafe fine blend mild coffee???

Sweenters

Brought some vitamins and minerals but the vit c is a liquid made from pure vit c acid ( I do have agressive candida to)????

Ive done something wrong to make me feel like this today and I dont know what ..

Doctors arent helping as they are sick of me and I am sure my face is a stroke mild one as it shouldnt affect your arm and neck!!!....

Ive got dermotology next week so hoping they will help me as parents are trying to throw me out as sick of me being ill..

does any one else suffer dehydrated facial skin really getting me down and the drop in my face...

hope your all okay xxx

Hi sweetie pie! I don't know if you really have Celiac or not, but you sound *very* ill and malnourished. :o I suspect you may have WAY more than simple food intolerances here. Please call your doctor and ask him to admit you to the hospital (again?) to get parental nutritional support and rehydration. You sound like you need to be on a IV. Tell them that you will not leave until you get a Dx. and proper treatment. You need full blood work, and it sounds like you are not taking in nearly enough calories. You need to be careful, because if you are cutting out foods you don't need to cut out (besides gluten), you can be hurting yourself more than helping. You may have simple dehydration/malnourishment and/or Celiac, multiple "common" conditions, or a rare illness that needs a specialist.

PLEASE call your doctor today.

You'll be in my thoughts and prayers.

I agree with Doll. Also want to add that if you are malnourished and dehydrated, you should NOT be drinking coffee. I know, you'll end up with caffeine withdrawal, but caffeine dehydrates you. There is also evidence that it contributes to bipolar disorder, and a diabetic friend of mine told me that her endocrinologist says it messes up blood sugar levels as well.

People don't have face strokes. A stroke affects the brain, which then can affect one side, including neck and arm, and even legs. Did they rule out stroke in your case?

I hope you feel better soon.

Hi,

thank you...

They wont listen anymore to me and parents only listening to doctor. Doctor said bells palsy another said its not bels palsy..but my face is paralisised one side still not like it was but hollow one side and still bit wonky but my eye didnt doop like bels palsy which is why I really think its a stroke. I aslo read that you cant wrinkle forehead with bels palsy and I can. When I went to A&E they wouldnt listen they said bels palsy but head felt like it was exploding and my heart was pounding..I couldnt stop opening my bowels either lost so much weight and my skin has gone very strange. I tried to go gym to help circulation but even with very light weight felt like Id put my right arm out of joint.

Ive got no support and I am scared as I know I have something really wrong with me ..Ive just been to see accupuncture lady going back this afternoon she thinks Ive had a stroke and is going to treat me she said she will take case history and will write to my doctor if she thinks its a stroke. Hopefully this will help as I am worried I will get another one.

I still cant eat all the foods but may be its not celiac maybe I have yeast infection due to another illness..I am very worried about my skin I look so illand feel like no one is helping me as been dotors so much they just dont listen any more..

thanks for your support so you dont think celiac has cause dehydration in my skin ??

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions to it, so different for everyone.

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗

      I agree there I've tryed this myself to prove I can't eat gluten or lactose and it sets me back for about a month till I have to go back to being very strict to settle again
