What Would The Specific Carbohydrate Diet, And Eliminating Dairy Really Do?

i mean you need that stuff mostly! including milk. i drink it and i don't get that tired, almost morphine feeling like i get with anything with wheat. and i don't get addicted. no stomach aches, no brain fog (mostly because im in a perpetual state of brain fog) no diahrea. (lol can't spell it right) and that carbohydrate thing makes sense but kinda of gets in the way of A) my gluten free diet and B) me being a hungry 19 year old.

im just, you know pointing out what i think is too many options.

If you feel fine with what your eating, don't worry about trying some other diet. Take the time to adapt to the gluten-free diet. If you've done that for a while, and don't feel well, then you can consider eliminating other foods.

It's a funny question to ask us, if you really are sure you have no issues with anything other than gluten...

what did you mean by being in a perpetual state of brain fog? do you mean even when you are not eating gluten? If you are, it might be that the diet needs to have a little more time to heal you, or that there might be other things making you feel that way. My advice is to continue with the gluten free diet a little longer and see how you feel. If you have already been on it for a while and suspect that something else is going on, then I would recommend looking into the Specific Carbohydrate Diet. I don't know how much you have actually read so far, but if milk is causing you digestive and absorption problems, then you'll find that it's doing you more harm than good to continue consuming it. I know it's difficult when you are among friends who can eat whatever they like, but if you consider the consequences that you'll face afterward ... it doesn't always seem worth it to be one of the crowd.

I agree. If you feel fine with milk and gluten seems your only problem. Stick with it!

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!

      Welcome @Martha Mitchell, I too would like to know more about your prior lenses, and especially about the potential of gluten in lenses. In theory this should not harm most celiacs, as the autoimmune reaction normally begins in the gut, however, in those who are super sensitive or have dermatitis herpetiformis it may be a potential issue.

      It's most likely going to be a celiac disease diagnosis based on your blood test results, but wait for your doctor to give you a green light for going gluten-free, as they may want to do additional testing. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
