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.

      Gluten related ??

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Is this celiac?

      By Beverage · Posted

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?
