The best person to ask is going to be the pharmacist. If they are busy or you want to check yourself the drug will come with a sheet which gives contact numbers for the company that makes it. You can call the company themselves. If this is a generic form of this drug you should double check on each refill as the binders can change at will on generics.

I did call the pharmacist today and he told me that it was gluten free. I was given the generic form.

I will try taking it tonight. All this because I pulled a back muscle sneezing. It ended up messing up more muscles from coughing too. Leave it to me to have something weird like that happen to me.

You too? I turned my head so I wouldn't sneeze on the heater back when I was 13 a y/o kid. I'm now 34, I can still turn my head a certain way and screw up my neck- shoulder area for days. It sucks!! :angry:

I couldn't believe that I did it. Of course my sinuse have been draining to add to the aggravation, so coughing doesn't help the healing process. My doctor even said he did it before.

add me to the list of pulled muscles when coughing!

I don't get coughs very often but when I do it's quite harsh. this time I just pulled a muscle in my back but years ago I coughed so bad I did something to my ribs and couldn't stand straight for 2 days until I saw a Chiro.

thanks for confirming about the methocarbamol

You are most welcome. Now if I can only stop the coughing so the muscle can heal. I am getting the most relief from my heated car seat. I thought it was an odd feature for cloth seats, but just happened to be on the one I bought. I love this feature. :):lol:

      The discovery of the vitamin D receptor in multiple immune cell lineages, such as monocytes, dendritic cells, and activated T cells credits vitamin D with a novel role in modulating immunological functions and its subsequent role in the development or prevention of autoimmune diseases.  The Implication of Vitamin D and Autoimmunity: a Comprehensive Review

      Definitely get vitamin D 25(OH)D.  Celiac Disease causes vitamin D deficiency and one of the functions of vitamin D is modulating the genes.  While we can survive with low vitamin D as an adaptation to living in a seasonal environment, the homeostasis is 200 nmol/L.  Vitamin D Receptors are found in nearly every cell with a nucleus,while the highest concentrations are in tissues like the intestine, kidney, parathyroid, and bone.  A cellular communication system, if you will. The vitamin D receptor: contemporary genomic approaches reveal new basic and translational insights  Possible Root Causes of Histamine Intolerance. "Low levels of certain nutrients like copper, Vitamins A, B6, and C can lead to histamine build up along with excess or deficient levels of iron. Iodine also plays a crucial role in histamine regulation."

      I forgot to mention my suspicion of the high amount of glyphosate allowed to be used on wheat in USA and NZ and Australia. My weight was 69kg mid-2023, I went down to 60kg in March 2024 and now hover around 63kg (just after winter here in NZ) - wheat-free and very low alcohol consumption.

      Hi Jess Thanks so much for your response and apologies for the long delay in answering. I think I must have been waiting for something to happen before I replied and unfortunately it fell off the radar... I have had an upper endoscopy and colonoscopy in the meantime (which revealed 'minor' issues only). Yes I do think histamine intolerance is one of the problems. I have been lowering my histamine intake and feeling a lot better. And I do think it is the liver which is giving the pain. I am currently taking zinc (I have had three low zinc tests now), magnesium, B complex, vitamin E and a calcium/Vitamin C mix. I consciously think about getting vitamin D outside. (Maybe I should have my vitamin D re-tested now...) I am still 100% gluten-free. My current thoughts on the cause of the problems is some, if not all, of the following: Genetically low zinc uptake, lack of vitamin D, wine drinking (alcohol/sulphites), covid, immune depletion, gastroparesis, dysbiosis, leaky gut, inability to process certain foods I am so much better than late 2023 so feel very positive 🙂

      4.5 years into diagnosis, eating gluten-free and still struggling: would love support, tips, & stories

      Hi and thank you very much for your detailed response! I am so glad that the protocol worked so well for you and helped you to get your health back on track. I've heard of it helping other people too. One question I have is how did you maintain your weight on this diet? I really rely on nuts and rice to keep me at a steady weight because I tend to lose weight quickly and am having a hard time envisioning how to make it work, especially when not being able to eat things like nuts and avocados. In case you have any input, woud be great to hear it! Friendly greetings.
