Yep, I did prior to diagnoses. When they ran some hormone checks they found I had no testosterone left and 2 other hormones that I forget.

Two injections and a patch for a month helped but after they figured out celiac ( took 6 months), I was back to normal in no time.

Might be a good idea to get your hormone levels checked. good luck

Ken,

Thanks for the insight! So your testicles did not return to normal until you adopted a strict gluten free diet? Also, have you been able to eat dairy products since developing Celiac? I don't believe I'm lactose intolerant, just seems many people on this site have more than just Celiac issues? Thanks for your time!

Right, I didnt have any trouble after the hormone injections and going totally gluten free. The injections came about 2 months before diagnoses and in themselves helped a lot and I have no more testicular pain. I still have some problems, but was tested for lactose and a variety of other things which dont seem to be a problem. I eat way more cheese than I should as it does not cause me trouble.

Did have some trouble today from breathing flour etc at our friends Christmas party. I didnt eat a thing but being in proximity to breading things at my friends must have set it off so I came home and left my wife to have a good time.

The lst time I got glutened it was from cross contamination.

I think it just takes time to sort things out. I used to eat a lot of salads which are gluten free but cant do it without getting cramping. I'm told this is due to virtually no vili left in the small intestine.

good luck

      Insomnia help

      Yes, @hjayne19, This is what I was saying in my post on January 15th and suggested the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol Diet which eliminates high histamine foods and histamine releasing foods.

      Hi @knitty kitty just covering back to this topic. I appreciate everyone’s help. Dairy was definitely adding to some of my issues but I wanted to ask about histamine. When I was working with my dietician I mentioned I got a stuffy nose when I was eating strawberries which I had just noticed one day in particular. Once I looked more into this I realized that histamine peaks at night and can cause insomnia exactly as I had been describing before. Working with her I realized while I wasn’t eating a lot of high histamine foods, I was eating a lot of histamine triggering or releasing like bananas (I was having several a day) and strawberries. Also some nights are worse than others but I also discovered meat sitting out even for a day can increase in histamines especially salmon which I eat quite a lot of even though I thought I was getting it fresh. Just wanted to know your thoughts and I’m just curious how this ties into celiac and leaky gut.

      Healthy Gluten Free Foods low sugar that you found?

      By xxnonamexx · Posted

      I noticed eating gluten-free or CGF foods have higher sugar and sodium some. No added sugar protein bars I found better with plant fiber. I wanted to know what are you go to besides whole fruits/veggies that you find are healthy for you where you can feel eating normal without hurting yourself or health. I was looking into subscription based like Thrift to see if there is something that is healthier CGF that can make me feel normal. Thanks
