Tmi Question Sorry :(

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.

      A friend of mine is in the bar trade most of his life and has never heard of lines being mixed for different type of beers and ciders. Better to stick with cans.

      Thanks very much for confirming my suspicion @Scott Adams! That helps a lot because I'm really trying to track down and get rid of these sources of cross-contact and so I'm going to just rule out the draft ciders and hope that helps. Also @Rogol72 its nice to hear you haven't had a problem on that side of the pond - draft cider lines being used for cider only certainly sounds like the right way to do it, but I think that must not always be practiced over here!

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.
