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

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Is there a digestive enzyme that helps build a healthier gut? I see people taking them but not sure what really works

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped".

      hi, i want to say thank you to you and @trents . after 2 phone calls to my GI, her office called me back to tell me that a blood test was “unnecessary” and that we should “follow the gold standard” and since my biopsy did not indicate celiac, to follow the no dairy and sucraid diet. i luckily have expendable income and made an appt for the labcorp blood t...

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong. yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.
