has any idea who I am...and all seem so caring here, I'd like to let you all know, I've been diagnosed Celiac through the blood test, the gastro, who was in anyway to do a bile duct snip, didn't bother to do the exam I asked for...so I just tried the diet, only to find that when I was exposed, those old joint pains and swellings, and constipation returned ten fold!

A year later, I had my daughter tested, from 6 up she took Ballet classes, and had such an extended tummy, thin hair, nails...I asked the HMO Doc. for a blood test. Negative...she decided to try the Gluten Free Diet and found her intestinal system to work much better, and the bloating of her stomach to go down significantly.

So we both have been on a Gluten Free diet for years now. I was just reading about co-enzyme B vitimans..I've taken my B100's for years, gluten-free just by chance (for so long I'd see that on the bottle and wonder) I think I may switch myself and get my daughter, who I've recently been working with her to take B complex..she has anxiety problems and such that I thought it may help..from what I've read here, all of you have confirmed my concerns...Thank You...Wish I'd known how to use a live stream before, I'd been here years ago...been going it alone for so long. Thanks To All for All your Wonderful Information!!! Dawnw007

I Thank each and everyone, So Much, for all the kind replys! This is the definition of what community truly can be!!! If all the world were so accepting and kind, it would be a better place, yet this sort of kindness starts in the the most surprising places, like here. I feel it is hard to find true community of any kind on line, here I see it every day! It is important to acknowledge the kindnesses we receive and give in life. They are a lot of what keeps us going day to day, knowing we have our sometimes few, yet every one makes a difference, True Communities in this fast changing society!

      Protein or fat?

      By Jsingh · Posted

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      High Cost of Gluten-Free Foods

      By Chanda Richard · Posted

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!
