I feel like I can't spit the words out of my mouth!!! Things come out all jumbled. I feel like I'm walking around in a haze and very forgetfull.

Also when I'm concentrating on something I feel like 6 million thoughts are running through my head all at once!!

This happened all the time before I went gluten-free and only when I get cc'd now!

It is like an out of body experience. I can see and hear everything that is going on around me but am completely unable to connect with reality.

I have found myself in my car, stopped at a stop light waiting for the light to turn RED. Scary!

i don't retain information. i can't stay focused. i feel like i'm walking around half-asleep. i find it hard to get excited about things. it's like a very mild depression-type mood.

I have all of those things. But sometimes I can't think straight either. I have run a red light then when I realized what I did, I sped up instead of stopping.

I too have gotten the lights mixed up.

Yep, that all describes how I feel. How long must I be gluten-free before it goes away? I'm at 3.5 months now.

It only took about 2 months or so for my brain fog to go away. I know that everyone is different though depending on the level of damage done initially. Maybe you are being glutened somehow? Just by small trace amounts? I found out the gluten free cereal I was eating wasn't gluten free and also that my lipstick had gluten in it. After I cut that out I started feeling better. I still haven't gone longer then 2 weeks without getting glutened though. I know this is frustrating. I wish I had the answer.

      Is AG1 safe for Celiacs??

      From their website I see "organic barley leaf powder" as an ingredient. Keep in mind that the gluten is in the kernel, and not in the leaves. https://drinkag1.com/about-ag1/ingredients/ctr

      Before the rise of social media we were well known by a lot of doctors and were recommended by many, especially our Safe & Forbidden Lists, but as doctors get younger and younger this is probably not happening as much as before.

      Vitamin D deficiency can contribute to rib pain. Chest pain stemming from the ribs ccould be costochondritis, which involves inflammation of the cartilage connecting the ribs to the breastbone. This pain can range from mild to severe, potentially mimicking heart attack symptoms, and is often worsened by breathing or movement. Other potential causes include muscle strain, rib fractures, or even referred pain from other conditions.  It will also help to chose vegetables low in omega 6.
