Joint Pain On Prednisone

I've have horrible joint and body pain for several weeks. My ESR, CBC, RF, ANA, and thyroid tests all came back negative. My MD did a lab send out for more specific tests, but they aren't back yet. I was seen in the emergency room today for unbearable pain, and was started back on prednisone. Three weeks ago was the first time I was placed on prednisone. I tried to taper off twice in the last three weeks and had my pain come back 2-3 days after stopping. Has anyone else ever had these symtoms despite the negative tests mentioned?

I just switched to Tom's of Maine Toothpaste. I was using Colgate maximum strength Sensitive for my last two tubes. I'm not sure of the timeline, but I think some of my issues started after using Colgate. If Sensodyne is unsafe wouldn't Colgate Sensitive be unsafe?

I'm new to a celiac forum and will probably have many questions over the next several weeks. I need to start going through old posts and reviewing the vast knowledge of information already present.

I've not been feeling well for quite a while now and hope it's my celiac and not some undiagnosed problem.

hi,

I noticed this because right now my mom is on prednisone for joint and muscle pain. I wish I was there. They have tested her for things. Today she got more blood drawn. It upsets me that this is the 3rd time in a few weeks and she has not even mentioned that her daughter is gluten intolerant. She promised me that if nothing turns up with this round and they test her again that she will ask for the celiac test and Lyme test. My mom had Epstein Barr in the past and they forgot to retest for that.

Have you been tested for Lyme or Epstein Barr? Good luck, I know it is terrible to hurt.

Are you also taking ibuprofen?

A close relative of mine read the testimony of an internet poster. The poster said his/her joint pain was caused by ibuprophen. My relative had been taking ibuprofen for joint pain. It was getting progressively worse .......debilitatingly so.

This relative stopped taking ibuprofen, and the pain went away. The treatment turned out to be the cause.

.......seriously. Try it.

      This was one I tried w/o issues using gluten-free flour. It gets confusing the 121 cup for cup. Especially the price of it. But I love using the make your own mixes of gluten-free flours potato starch such as this to make it go further https://theloopywhisk.com/2021/09/23/homemade-gluten-free-flour-blend/ Heres a recipe stating 1:1 https://chefalina.com/gluten...

      Flour 1to1 Mixes never ending lol

      That's an idea. I have found good chocolate chip recipes that mimic tates cookies or other chocolate chip cookies with gluten-free for without an issue. I have seen recipes from chef Alina looping whisk etc that have gluten-free flour but they are trial and error. I guess I will have to mix and match. I made my own flour using flax meal corn flour potato...

      Gluten free flours can be very different, even from one manufacturer. For example, King Arthur has two certified gluten free flours that act quite differently in some recipes. I find that it is best to use the recipes on the website of the manufacturer of the flour, although I often bake for a shorter time than listed. I like this recipe for chocolate...

      Are you supplementing any vitamins?  Recently added medications? the ones that helped me the most noticibly was increasing vitamin D blood level to 80 ng/ml and Iodine to 500 mcg once or twice a day, Thiamine, Choline, and Iodine, B6 speeds up gastric motility, gastric motility, which is the movement of food through the stomach, is primarily achieved through peristalsis. Moving food faster helps bloating. 10,000 IU vitamin D 500 mg Thiamine or more Choline  brain fog, fat digestion.  Since the recommended reduction in red meat and eggs, experts estimate that only 10% of the population eats the minimum RDA., 500 mg.  Choline is a large percentage of bile.  Many Celiacs are first diagnosed as Gall Bladder surgery candidates.  It works for a while, fut the the symptoms come back. Iodine – 600 to 1200 mcg of Liquid Iodine Vitamin B2 helps break down proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. It plays a vital role in maintaining the body's energy supply.  500 mg Pantothenic Acid vitamin B5 Low fat yogurt.  My favorite brand is Stonyfield.  Pasture fed means an omega 6:3 ratio of 1:1.  Comercial dairies feed grains and have omega 6:3 ratio  of 5:1.  Omega 3 is healing, omega 6 is inflammatory. No fat yogurts, including greek style has various gums added to replicate the fatty mouth feel, and these gums like guar gum can have several side effects, especially if low vitamin B6 causes poor gastric emptying. Omega-3 and Omega-6 Fatty Acids in Vegetables  Eating more of the vegetables low in omega six and high omega 3 can reduce inflammation. The American diet is fortified.  Gluten free foods are not.

I have found good sandwich bread at Whole Foods called 365 which is under $4 for a regular loaf you won't realize its gluten-free or the Promise bread brand. Making your own sandwich bread seems like a bunch that break apart etc. Eventually I will have to try one.
