Hi there. Well, I've been a "lurker" for about 3 yrs. now and I have just decided to finally log into and join.

I am 8 wks. preggie with my 3rd. This is my first preg. since diagnosed with celiac disease. I am due Aug. 20th. I am in the very tired stage and for the last week and a half, I had felt queezy all day. I thought to try something. I haven't taken my pre natal vits. for 2 days now and all the nausea is gone. They were GNC gluten-free vits. Does anyone have another they reccomend? I don't want to buy any off the internet, so is there one in a store or pharmacy? How about walmart brand? I hate being off them, but I feel much better.

Also, what kinds of menues or dishes do you eat now that your preg? Before, I would not be so gluten-free consious. But now, I'm paranoid that I will have something with gluten in it. Can anyone give me some ideas. Right now I can't get enough salt!!!! I love freetos!!!

Thanks for any advise that comes my way. Good luck to all and bye for now!

I craved salt also when I was pregnant. The OBGYN told me that as long as my blood pressure was okay not to worry about it. Check with yours and hopefully he will say the same.

Try some b-complex for the nausea and fatigue. They worked wonders for me with my four pregancies (3 live births).

I know that Perrigo labs are gluten free. They are distributed as store brands through Kroger, Wal-mart, and Target that I know of. Their logo looks like a rounded rectangle with a comma hook off the right side. Since I know that their lab is gluten-free, those are the only OTC meds that we use around here.

Hi deener

Glad to have you here.

I do know that when my daughter was pg, the prenatal vit made her sick all the time. So the doc told her to try flintstones. ;)

Check and make sure they are gluten-free first of course :)

Thank you ladies :D I will definately be on the lookout. I am also waiting for my GI DR. to call me back with a list of perscription. But it would be great if I could get some that aren't so exspensive!!

Bye for now :P

      You might try Heallix.  It's a silver solution with fulvic acid. I just put the solution on with a cotton ball.  It seemed to stop the nerve pain. Again,  not in your eyes or ears.   Go to heallix.com to read more about it and decide for yourself Also,  I do think nerve and celiac combined have a lot to do with your susceptibility to shingles breaking out.

      Celiac disease requires both genetic potential and a triggering stress event to activate the genes. Otherwise it remains dormant and only a potential problem. So having the genetic potential is not deterministic for celiac disease. Many more people have the genes than actually develop the disease. But if you don't have the genes, the symptoms are likely being caused by something else.

      Yes, i pulled raw ancetry data and saw i have 2/3 markers for DQ2.2 but have heard from friends in genetics that this raw data can be wildly innacurate

      Thanks, I’m still dealing with the pain and tingling and itching and feeling like bugs or something crawling around on my face and scalp. It’s been a miserable experience. I saw my eye doc last week, the eye itself was okay, so they didn’t do anything. I did take a 7 day course of an antiviral. I’m hoping for a turnaround soon! My life is full of stress but I have been on / off the gluten free diet for the last year , after being talked into going back on gluten to have a biopsy, that looked okay. But I do have positive antibody levels that have been responsive  to a gluten free diet. I can’t help but wonder if the last year has caused all this.

      I don't think any apps are up to date, which is exactly why this happened to you. Most of the data in such apps is years old, and it doesn't get updated in real time. Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.
