Hi Tyrone and welcome,

I'm not a teen, but I have a suggestion. If you think it's food related, begin a food diary. Write down everything that you eat and then record your reaction. That might help narrow down so maybe you can pinpoint a certain food that makes you feel ill.

I would also look into getting a metabolic blood panel to check on all your mineral and vitamin levels. When they are off you can get the type of symptoms that you are having.

I've had problems with joint pain...and sometimes weakness and twitching. Since going gluten free I don't have problems with weakness or twitching, so gluten might be the problem.

I've never had stomach problems, even before I was diagnosed, so yes, it is possible.

That is very hard when your parents don't support you! Do they know the effects it's causing you, or how damaging it is to your body? Maybe a little education will help them understand more. You can get a lot of good resources right from this website.

Hey!

It looks like an intolerance to me though I have the stomach issue. I hope everything works out and pray that your parents will come around soon. I'm 18 and it took my parents four years to fuly adjust, I hope yours understand the effcts of the intolerance if that is what you have. The joint pain and such are the same symptoms I had so you sound to be on the right track.

Best of Luck, ;)

      I agree, there can be contamination at many points--milling is another possible source of contamination for any flours.

      Keep in mind that with manufactured food products, "gluten free" doesn't equate to no gluten. Things that are naturally gluten free can be cross-contaminated with gluten in the field, in shipping and in processing. In the U.S. companies can use the gluten free label as long as the product doesn't exceed 20ppm of gluten. That amount still may cause a reaction in some people.

      Inconclusive results

      By deanna1ynne · Posted

      Dd10 was tested for celiac four years ago bc two siblings were dx’d (positive labs and biopsies). Her results at the time were positive ema  and ttg (7x the UL), but a negative biopsy. We checked again three months later and her ttg was still positive (4x the UL), but ema and biopsy were negative. Doc said it was “potential celiac” and to keep eating gluten, but we were concerned about harming her growth and development while young and had her go gluten-free because we felt the labs and ema in particular were very suggestive of early celiac, despite the negative biopsies. She also had stomach aches and lethargy when eating it. We just felt it’d be better to be safe than sorry. Now, four years...

      Thanks for the replies. I already use a gluten-free brand of buckwheat flakes I occasionally get itchy bumps. I'm still reviewing all my food products. I occasionally eat prepackaged gluten-free crackers and cookies, so I'll stop using those. I use buckwheat flakes and Doves Farm flour as a base for baking. Would you recommend eliminating those as well? It's a constant search.

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Gluten free food is not fortified with vitamins and minerals as regular food is.  Vitamin deficiencies are common especially in recently diagnosed persons,  Get a 25(OH)Vitamin D blood test. And work on raising it.  The safe upper blood level is around 200 nmol/L.    "Low serum levels of 25(OH)D have been associated with increased risk of autoimmune disease onset and/or high disease activity. The role of vitamin D in autoimmune diseases   🏋️‍♂️Good job!   I find the commercial milk will give me mild stomach burn at night, while pasture/grassfed only milk does not bother me at all.  While you are healing, listen to your body.  If it hurts to eat something, eat something else.  You may be...
