I know this is a probably a pretty common topic, but I have been gluten free for just under a week and have seen some pretty weird side effects. Anyone else experience stange bodily stuff (i'll be pretty general)? What is normal when going through this process?

Most of us are pretty okay with the TMI stuff on this board...you can always post a TMI warning on your thread, LOL!

Yes, lots of transitional weird stuff can be seen.

I had an equal amount of mental | emotional side effects too, with the withdrawls. B)

It's a wild ride right after you get off the gluten... hang in there Sweetie!

I have first - serious constipation, followed by the runs. I get a rash and what's weird for me is I get what seems like canker sores on my tongue and the inside of my bottom lip that is gone within one day. Geez.

yeah, my appetite is virtually gone, though my stomach growls ALL the time, even if I had eaten an hour before. I go to the bthroom quite frequently, to the point where I can't predict it. It used to be after eating, now it can creep up on me at anytime. My stomach also is constantly making noises, from hunger growls to gurgling. After I eat, I feel even worse, to the point where I avoid eating (thought that doesn't make me feel better) BM's are quite liquidy too. Don't even get me started on yawning.

It doesn't help that I am a teacher either...

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Russ H · Posted

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      You might try Heallix.  It's a silver solution with fulvic acid. I just put the solution on with a cotton ball.  It seemed to stop the nerve pain. Again,  not in your eyes or ears.   Go to heallix.com to read more about it and decide for yourself Also,  I do think nerve and celiac combined have a lot to do with your susceptibility to shingles breaking out.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      Celiac disease requires both genetic potential and a triggering stress event to activate the genes. Otherwise it remains dormant and only a potential problem. So having the genetic potential is not deterministic for celiac disease. Many more people have the genes than actually develop the disease. But if you don't have the genes, the symptoms are likely being caused by something else.
