I thought maybe you could help me figure ot what is wrong with me......you all are very knowledgeable and your insight might be very helpful.

When i wake up i feel hungover and really tired. I have had upper abdominal tenderness on my right side along my ribcage. have burning eyes a lot of the time and nausea usually just right when i wake up. When my stomach feels real sore i have a really dry mouth. My legs feel weak and stiff off and on, stiff neck and if i overexert myself, my stomach will get really tender (in the area of the liver). My thyroid has gone from 1.3 to 2.16 and i have an elevated liver enzyme of 52 (ALT) and all of the other enzymes are on the upper normal. I do have an H.Pylori infection (Biohealth) and abundant E. Coli. I am worrried if my liver is in danger. My ALT went from 26 to 52 in about 6 months and my liver is always really tender. I eat extremely simple and clean, so gluten is most likely not the problem. Before all of these problems started, even celiac disease, I got really sick where i was vomitting and pooping blood. I went to the hhospital and the bleeding stopped and they said i had the stomach flu. I have never been the same since. My brainfog has improved, but my body feels beat down. Im only 27. The best way i can describe how i feel is toxic. My eyes are always red and irritated, dry mouth, nausea, weak, upper abdominal tenderness (worse on empty stomach), moody. And my adrenals are out of whack. High cortisol in the morning and night, but normal in the day. Cortisol/Dhea ratio 9:1. Please help

Hello Wayne,

I have been reading your posts for a while now, and I feel so bad for you. Alot of what you said, is the way that I feel. Have the Drs ever checked to see if your gallbladder is still functioning? I know that when I was at my sickest, my liver functions were abnormal, and within the following months, it was removed, but....I still didn't feel better. I recently started seeing a ND, who I think has helped me to some degree. I am still loaded with fungal overgrowth and it is doing a number on my entire system.

Have you ever been tested for that? It seems like something toxic is pouring into your system and making you feel like crap...And I know, you're scared and fustrated. I get the weakness in my legs at times, muscles pains, tenderness in my abdomen. Do you have any Dr at this point that you think might be able to test you for foods that you might be allergic to? I hope you get some answers soon, and that you'll be on your way to feeling better. :)

H pylori can do a number to you along with ecoli. Also, when your body is overun by something it gives other things that may have been held in check the opportunity to proliferate.

I really recommend coming over to the OMG I Might Be On To Something thread and posting your story there. Some there have had h pylori and can see if their symtpoms match with yours or not. There are so many variables it could be or it might just be these two things you're dealing with.

Sounds like you need liver support. A good naturopath/holistic doctor or LLMD will be able to suggest what would be best.

I would also recommend muscle testing if you aren't against alternative treatment......in particular one called ART (autonomic response testing). If you are in the west it would be pretty easy to track down someone who does that, I'm guessing your in the SW or south midwest by an earlier picture you had. ART will tell you what your stressors are at this time and also what will be most effective in dealing with and supporting the body while treating it.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!
