Hi there yeh I made it day 9 and am finally starting to see some great improvements...at least with brain fog, energy, sad moods laughing more, etc but I am now having a few other strange symptoms has anyone experienced this I now feel like I have mucus in my chest that wont come out ( I am doing a parasite cleans to hopefully help) mu nose feels stuffy with thick mucus too and my period wont start it is 3 days late which is unusual for me....is this normal??

Any input would be great....

PS for anyone who read my older post re my naturalpath I have since decided to leave her and move on she seemed to have no interest in the fact this was Celiac issues and that I was getting better without all of her mumbo jumbo herbs and spices and B12 shots etc so I have since decided to move on and save my $$$ for more enjoyable things in life YEH me !!!!! maybe it is the gluten-free diet that has given me the mental brain clearing :D anyone come across similar experience with there Dr/ naturalpathic Drs

I am glad you are starting to feel better. Have you checked your shampoo and conditioner? They could be contibuting to the back itch especially if you have long hair.

It is so wonderful when we start to feel good again and I hope you continue to improve.

My first period after going gluten free was three days early and only lasted two days. But I also noticed more cramping and gastrointestinal discomfort when it arrived. :huh:

It takes the body a while to detox. And I have read that the "itch" is sometimes from leakage with gas that then irritates the area. Or the pH of your poop is changing and the body is adjusting.

Good to know I think you are right as it started after i went gluten-free and I am still waiting on the cycle however I too am getting a lot of rumbling going on... good to know I am not alone in this

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Definitely worth speaking to your gastroenterologist about this. My own told me that by using Gaviscon a barrier forms over the contents of the stomach and stops gas and acid irritating the throat. In fact, he said to me that because I found relief using Gaviscon that was a very clear indicator that reflux was the cause of that particular issue. A wedge...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      I did get the pneumonia vaccine about 4 years ago. I had this amazing allergist who did all those vitamin deficiencies test and told to get that vaccine. Unfortunately she retired. I haven’t been to an allergist in a few years, I’m not sure what my levels are now. I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young...

      Yes I do have acid reflux. I’m not on anything for it at the moment. I sometimes wonder if that’s what it could be because I get heart burn every night. I may revisit my gastrointestinal doctor again. Thanks for the reply

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways. I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux. Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following...

      Since initially getting your D checked a few years ago, has it since rebounded to normal levels? Sounds like at some point you got it checked again.

Unfortunately she retired.  I haven’t been to an allergist in a few years,  I’m not sure what my levels are now. I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young etc. But yes I think I should at the very least get a different opinion. Thank you for your reply

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways.  I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux.  Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following a holiday to France in 2019, where I had been exposed to gluten.    The reflux continued into the autumn and winter, my throat itched to begin with, particularly after meals, but it then that feeling of irritation seemed to spread to my lungs.  I even found it difficult to breathe on occasion. What stopped it in its tracks was using a wedge pillow at night, following a reflux diet (you can find them online), not eating 2-4 hours before bed and also having a dose of Gaviscon Advanced at night, which forms a barrier so that acid/food can't go back up your esophagus.  The throat irritation faded, and then I found it easier to breathe again. Just mentioning in case it could be a contributing factor.
