Anyone Been To An Allergy Accupuncturist?

So I'm going to one to see if I have any other food intolerances besides gluten. Has anyone else done this before? specifically with an acupuncturist who does this instead of a regular allergist person.

Thanks.

Anyone know why my posts keep getting deleted and/or not added? Do they not follow the CoC somehow or are just that stupid of questions?

Thanks.

I didn't know acupuncturists did that kind of thing... :huh:

I was just reading "Dangerous Grains" again and they recommend ELISA testing for IgG intolerances... which is far from perfect, but might give you some ideas. Ultimately, you'll have to try the elimination diet (and challenge) if you want to know for sure.

      Gluten challenge and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.

      While it's always important to approach internal use of essential oils with caution and ideally under the guidance of a qualified professional, your experience highlights the potential of complementary approaches when traditional medicine falls short. Many in the community are also interested in the intersection of natural wellness and gluten-free living, particularly for managing systemic inflammation and its various symptoms, so sharing your story is valuable. Your observation that it may also be helping with bloating is fascinating, as that could point to an overall reduction in inflammation. Thank you for sharing what is working for you!
