Weight Loss Among Other Symptoms

hello,

brand new here so I thought I would introduce myself and ask what the group thinks. First off, 41 yr old male, always been in good health until the last 6 months or so. My symptoms at first were a general feeling of blahhh, nothing remarkable, just blah. I alwyas have thought I had gall bladder trouble so I normally stay away from a lot of red meat and fat, 7 yrs ago had a bout with acid and stomach cramps and gi trouble, had all the normal tests for gall bladder, results came back slow normal. Right after the first of this year, I began experiencing extreme heart burn, constipation for 3 days the the big D for 1 day, in a continuing cycle. I have been admitted into the hospital twice for chest pains, have had subsequent cardio-stress test with ultrasound, all blood, ekg, and stress test came back negative for any cardio problems. I had an endoscopy this past Thursday where the doc. found a small hiatal hernia, he also took a biopsy of my small intestine to check for celliac's. I realize my biopsy will tell all, but I am getting impatient and worried. Gall bladder tests all negative as well. here is a list of any and all symptoms.

tired

blah feeling

occasional tingling in feet and hands

sinus infection x2 in past 5 months

constipation for 3 days followed by 1 day of D in a cycle

chest pains, non cardiac

terrible acid every day with or without eating

muscle aches in neck and back

teeth hurt at times

low energy levels

hoarse voice

I am sure others I have forgotten.

Thanks for any and all advice

Delta

Sorry, forgot to mention the bad, bad belching and gas I have all the time, the gas is embarassing at best as it is almost uncontroled.

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.
