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, ;)

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
