Dizziness - Almost 3 Months gluten-free

Hey guys.

I've been gluten-free for almost 3 months, and everything has resolved for me, well almost everything. The fatigue is still there, not as bad but still there.

Also lately I have been noticing that I get dizzy spells and feel faint sometimes. Does anyone else get that?

Could it be blood sugar? I'm on B12 supplements and magnesium, as well as a multivitamin. All gluten free.

Any ideas on where to look?

Many thanks,

Kim

You sound like you're on the right track. It does take time for your body to play catch up.

But, not being a doctor, maybe you can request a metabolic panel from your doctor to check for any deficiencies.

There are many things that can cause dizziness. Low blood pressure. Adrenal fatigue. Low iron. And others.

I get this. My BP is good and my adrenals tested perfect. But my Ferritin is low. I have done a lot of research of late on low iron stores and I feel my remaining nagging symptoms are due to low Ferritin....so I am working to correct that.

A basic blood panel would be a good start. Make sure they do Ferritin and ask for Thyroid panel too.

      Gluten free thyroid medications

      By maryannlove · Posted

      Thought was finished with this but a friend just sent email saying she takes Tirosin liquid levothyroxine which has no fillers (mentioned by Pgetha above).  Friend's doc sends script to one of Tirosin's direct-mail pharmacies.  Looking that up, government insurance (Medicare/Medicaid) doesn't cover (as Pgetha wrote above).  But if use one of their direct-mail places three month supply is $57/month.  Researching that, happened to learn Yaral also makes a generic gluten-free levothyroxine.

      Finding gluten free ingredients

      By dmallbee · Posted

      As a life.long celiac, I understand this.  I simply ask that the medical profession stop disregarding the fact that it should remain a concern for some. It cost me a lot of medical discomforts.

      @dmallbee, about 8% of celiacs react to the oat protein avenin like they do to the wheat protein gluten. In addition, there are some cultivars of oats that apparently do actually contain gluten.
