I can only say sorry you are feeling this way. I know the dizzies are the worst. I dont slur, but I fumble a lot. Hope you feel better soon.

I used to slur before going gluten free. I didn't actually realize it until my son told me he was having a hard time understanding me on the phone. Now I don't slur, ( I think that went away when the brain fog lifted) but I sometimes have trouble getting my words out---almost like a stutter, but that happens very rarely.

I slur with dairy. I've been accused of being drunk when it was only a slice of cheese or a little milk.

With my ataxia/vertigo feelings, I often feel like I am drunk but without all of the good feelings. :(

Yeah, I get retarded too. I'll try to think of a word like 'repeat' and just get a major brain fart. People get used to guessing what I mean, like with a deaf person almost.

I do this all the time. It's been worse since I had my hysterectomy last summer. Weird thing is, when you talk to other people who have had surgery, they say the same thing has happened to them, especially women who have had hysterectomies! :o I work with a friend who had a hysterectomy about 2 1/2 months before me, and we often laugh this off, because we do it at the same time!!! What can you do but laugh!!!! Words just will not come to me, or I can't spell them, when I know I know how to spell the word--it's very frustrating!!!

I'm still having it :( I go see my nwe GI doc in a week so I'm trying to stay on gluten. I've been eating it at night so the sluring and brain farts aren't as bad, but I can't wake up in the morning though :-(

I'm reading a very good book written by a pediatric neurosurgeon, Dr. McCleary, called "The Brain Trust Program". He writes about how he has helped people recover brain function after traumatic illnesses or injury and recommends a variety of supplements and activities for restoring brain function. His major focus is age related memory loss but he deals with other issues as well. I wonder if his book might help the brain recover from gluten related issues? He has a blog too: Open Original Shared Link

The brain is amazing. As are our bodies. I never believe if a doctor/research/person says "it will never heal", "you will be this way for life", "it's irreversible", etc. Amazing things happen all of the time!!! And brains can regenerate. And new pathways can be formed to take over defective ones.

I read a book about vertigo issues and this researcher came up with a device that you put in your mouth. It stimulates nerves in your mouth which somehow retrain your brain and you get a whole new balance system. The old one fades to the back and the new one takes over. I cried as I read a story of a woman who had such severe vertigo that she spun non-stop for years and this device fixed her. It didnt happen over night, but it fixed her.

I forget the name of the device, but it is in clinical trials right now. According to the book, it has helped people with parkinson's, MS, Mineier's, etc.

Yes, I had problems with speech before going gluten-free. It was one of the worst and most debilitating symptoms, besides the excruciating pain and D that I was experiencing on a daily basis. I would have trouble with memory and thinking of simple words, stutter or stumble on the pronunciation of words that I knew, and jumble phrases. It was humiliating. I stopped eating gluten, but just as significant for me, I introduced flax seeds, walnuts, gluten-free vitamin B tablets, and fish on a daily and regular basis. I went back to "normal".

I don't slur, but I do stutter when I get glutened. Never happened before going gluten-free, but does happen now when I get glutened.

      CT with contrast.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      Chances of being coeliac

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease.

      By JettaGirl · Posted

      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.

      I was told it was to see how much damage has been caused. But just told CT with contrast not any other name for it.
