I am afraid now of what else i can or have become allergic too, because I see that it seems that alot of people are allergic to more than one of those plus gluten, and want to find out if the symptoms are the same. With gluten i have gas constipation pain in sides and abdominal areas,weakness,fatigue,missed periods,pale poo,headaches and nerve problems. I stoppped eating dairy but still eat eggs peanutbutter and soymilk. I have not recovered because i am new to all this and making mistakes all the time with the gluten. I just found out today that some ketchups are bad like hunts which unfortunately I had been using.Now I'm wondering and afraid if those other items are going to affect my healing,i feel so awful all the time,i just want to get better,i have a wonderful life besides all this family friends husband and child, pets. Because of this though i have become very depressed and I hardly can enjoy anything else,it's very debilitating,I just have to cry sometimes to release my frustration. My dr doesn't seem to know much about all this and I actually was the one who went on the internet and diagnosed myself,after months and months of drs visits and an ultrasound and cat scan came out fine. Also Can anyone tell me if there is medicines to help flush the gluten out faster? or natural herbal remedies? Thanks so much

I know it is hard. And I am sure you really want to get well.

So the easiest thing to do...well the best thing....is to eat very simply foods that are easiest to digest: plain meats, veggies, fruits, eggs, pure spices, squashes, root veggies for starches. Stay away from grains, dairy and legumes for a little while (soy and peanuts). Then after you feel better...you can reintroduce them one at a time.

Hi thanks for your rseponse.I had to cry a couple of tears wheni saw I had a response. I just found this site today and am so relieved and grateful there is a website specifcally for people with our condition. I have come to realize drs are not as smart as I thought they were, I always thought when you go to the dr and tell them what's wrong they will know what it is, man i was wrong.I was curious about your statements in the pink lettering?Are you allergic to all those ingredients you are "free" of now? If i don't hear back thanks again for your reply,Marlena

Marlena, all of my intolerances have different symptoms, with the only overlap being fatigue. Shay's approach is perhaps, the most difficult, but it really is the best. Once you remember what "well" feels like, it becomes easier to identify what's making you sick.

Hi Marlena,

No I do not believe I am "allergic" to all of these foods. I think my body just isnt digesting them well at the moment. I am working on healing my gut and my deficiencies. Vitamin D is already back in the normal range. :) And I am working on Iron right now.

I will never eat GLUTEN again. I think it is very damaging to the body even in small amounts.

My plan is to heal and then re-introduce those foods in but in very limited amounts. For instance the nightshades give me stiff hands in the morning. So my hope is someday I can eat them once in awhile and feel just fine. I dont plan on eating tons of starches again ever. I feel better on this more natural diet. :)

      Just a gluten free diet is not enough.  Now you have to identify and replenish your malnutrition.  Celiac disease is co-morbid with malabsorption syndrome.  Low vitamin D, Low Thiamine caused Gastointeston Beriberi, low choline, low iodine are common the general population, and in newly diagnosed Celiacs in the western culture its is more likely.  It takes time to heal and you need to focus on vitamins and minerals.  Gluten free foods are not fortified like regular processed foods.

      Dear Kitty Since March I have been following your recommendations regarding vitamins to assist with various issues that I have been experiencing.  To recap, I am aged 68 and was late diagnosed with Celiac about 12 years ago.  I had been experiencing terrible early morning headaches which I had self diagnosed as hypoglycaemia.  I also mentioned that I had issues with insomnia, vertigo and brain fog.   It's now one year since I started on the Benfotiamine 600 mg/day.  I am still experiencing the hypoglycaemia and it's not really possible to say for sure whether the Benfotiamine is helpful.  In March this year, I added B-Complex Thiamine Hydrochloride and Magnesium L-Threonate on a daily basis, and I am now confident to report that the insomnia and vertigo and brain fog have all improved!!  So, very many thanks for your very helpful advice. I am now less confident that the early morning headaches are caused by hypoglycaemia, as even foods with a zero a GI rating (cheese, nuts, etc) can cause really server headaches, which sometimes require migraine medication in order to get rid off.  If you are able to suggest any other treatment I would definitely give it a try, as these headaches are a terrible burden.  Doctors in the UK have very limited knowledge concerning dietary issues, and I do not know how to get reliable advice from them. Best regards,

      @rei.b,  I understand how frustrating starting a new way of eating can be.  I tried all sorts of gluten-free processed foods and just kept feeling worse.  My health didn't improve until I started the low histamine AIP diet.  It makes a big difference.   Gluten fits into opioid receptors in our bodies.  So, removing gluten can cause withdrawal symptoms and reveals the underlying discomfort.  SIBO can cause digestive symptoms.  SIBO can prevent vitamins from being absorbed by the intestines.  Thiamine insufficiency causes Gastrointestinal Beriberi (bloating, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea or constipation).  Thiamine is the B vitamin that runs out first because it can only be stored for two weeks.  We need more thiamine when we're sick or under emotional stress.  Gastric Beriberi is under recognised by doctors.  An Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test is more accurate than a blood test for thiamine deficiency, but the best way to see if you're low in thiamine is to take it and look for health improvement.  Don't take Thiamine Mononitrate because the body can't utilize it well.  Try Benfotiamine.  Thiamine is water soluble, nontoxic and safe even at high doses.  I thought it was crazy, too, but simple vitamins and minerals are important.  The eight B vitamins work together, so a B Complex, Benfotiamine,  magnesium and Vitamin D really helped get my body to start healing, along with the AIP diet.  Once you heal, you add foods back in, so the AIP diet is worth doing for a few months. I do hope you'll consider the AIP diet and Benfotiamine.

      Imemsm, Most of us have experienced discontinued, not currently available or products that suddenly become seasonal.   My biggest fear about relocating from Maryland to Florida 5 years ago, was being able to find gluten-free foods that fit my restricted diet.  I soon found out that the Win Dixie and Publix supper markets actually has 99% of their gluten-free foods tagged, next to the price.  The gluten-free tags opened up a  lot of foods that aren't actually marked gluten-free by the manufacture.  Now I only need to check for my other dietary restrictions.  Where my son lives in New Hartford, New York there's a Hannaford Supermarket that also has a gluten-free tag next to the price tag.  Hopefully you can locate a Supermarket within a reasonable travel distance that you can learn what foods to check out at a Supermarket close to you.  I have dermatitis herpetiformis too and I'm very sensitive to gluten and the three stores I named were very gluten-free friendly.  Good Luck
