Tmi Question Sorry :(


Glutenfreefamily

Recommended Posts

I cant call it sciatica since its literally everywhere on my body. Its a horrid feeling. When I have diarrhea from gluten or any other intolerance my arms, legs, back, butt all the way down to my fingers feels like Im having an emg and my nerves are on high alert and being highly stimulated while I am on the pot. It hurts alot. I literally shake because it hurts so much for that few minutes. Does anyone know what this is or have this? I have had this for years and havent mentioned it to my dr but its starting to make me wonder if this is something I should mention.

I have had recent mri's with contrast for another problem and my mri showed no abnormalities.

Thanks :)

I think doctors have a wonderful way of not getting you to tell them all of your problems, sometimes, perhaps subconsciously. Not mentioning everything with me that isn't going exactly right is one of my pet peeves about myself and I don't even mind when they look at me like I'm crazy. We seem more able to talk about the ears, nose and throat than other parts of our bodies and when you think about it, that's kind of ridiculous, unless you're actually having an upper respiratory ailment. It takes a lot of courage to tell a doc about all your ailments, sometimes, but hella, who's going to benefit from it?

Thanks I see him in January right after the new year for my regular appt. I do have an appt with my ob/gyn so I may mention it to her. I guess I just hate all these medical issues that just pile up it seems they are popping out everywhere and Im just sick of being diagnosed. I know its not a very smart way of going about it but its my little protest ;).

I tried googling it since I self diagnose usually before I go to the dr. but I couldnt find a thing on the net.

      Most recent gluten challenge guidelines call for the consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in about 4-6 slices of wheat-based bread) for at least 2 weeks.  When celiacs have been on gluten free diets for long periods of time, they often find that when they consume a good amount of gluten, they react much more strongly than they did before going gluten free. They have lost all tolerance to the poison they had when consuming wheat products regularly. That is certainly the case with me. A couple of years ago I accidentally consumed a wheat biscuit my wife had made thinking it was a gluten free one and it made me violently ill. So, I mention that as I don't know if your son has started the gluten challenge yet.

      Will definitely keep you posted. We live in Japan and will fly to Australia for the endoscopy end of April so until then, for the next ten weeks, we will just start adding gluten daily. 2 slices of white bread a day is what the guidelines seem to say.    But I welcome advice from members here who have done successful gluten challenges. I know they are not always successful.    I have also read I should monitor his growth. Is that really a concern for 10 weeks of gluten consumption? He is growing and has always followed his curve but he’s no basketball player at 20-25th centile.

      @melthebell, keep us posted. We are learning more and more about gluten disorders as time goes on. One of the things that has become apparent to me is that gluten disorders don't always like to fit into the neat little pigeon hole symptomatic and diagnostic paradigms we have created for them. There seems to be a lot more atypical stuff going on than we once realized.
