If You Can't Shake It, Read Your Labels

For two weeks now I've been sick...stomach sick...we have ate strictly at home and been feeling great.

Now it hasn't been bad just odd. Normally with glutening I get very sick for 1-2 days and I'm good. This has lingered on and except for last Saturday night which was the very painful boughts it hasn't followed the previous pattern.

I really thought I had a stomach/intestinal infection since I'm sick, and my wife has been sick too.

Things were much better and good to go...wake up last night shaking, cold sweats, nerves feel like they are burning. Here is a huge testimonial to Vitamin B and D. Since I read about that on here and taking them every day my entire life has straightened out. I always tell people I am 90-95 percent back to normal after given up gluten but there were a lot of yoyo days, not bad by any means but not really right. B&D which I've been taking daily for the past 3 months has totally fixed that.

Still had the stomach issues but no shaking, nerve problems, trouble sleeping, etc...all the things that come with me and gluten.

Last night all those showed up and the night before I was starting to not feel tired at night which is another side effect for me. I had skipped taking my B&D for 2 days, we've just been busy that if I don't take it in the early morning I skip it because I don't want to double up on the D3.

None of it made any sense except I've been taking a few Tums here and there. I knew Tums were gluten free but we had bought the smoothies last time around.

Look at the label, contains gluten :rolleyes:

Well crap :P

As with everytime you learn something new. The B&D really kept the other symptoms at bay, if I had not skipped them I'd continue to think I have some kind of infection but now I know. I take Omeprozole but was trying to cut down to 20mg from 40mg so I was taking a suppliment antiacid, which was tums smoothies.

So if you can't shake it, check the labels...

      I am new here, I have been diagnosed with Microscopic Colitis (Lymphatic) years ago and have been gluten-free, DF since, but I still can have occasional bouts of diarrhea (still trying to figure that out).  I also have MS, Hypothyroid, Arthritis, Reynaud's and my rosacea has been acting up lately.  What treatment is suggested to help with rosacea?  I would like to know too if there is a test for celiac if you have been gluten-free?   Thank you, Barb

      Well, that's interesting. I am lactose intolerant and have been managing that for years. I'd be interested in seeing if that changes once I feel better from not eating gluten (one thing at a time for now, though). Helpful to hear about the avenin. I will do some digging and pose that to the dietitian. Grateful for your feedback.

      Recently my daughter ate in nandos harlow I rang in advance to speak about the celiac protocals and learned that childs portion chicken nandinos is cooked on the same grill as garlic bread even if they are celiac! Even if you clean it this is not good practise and will be making many children ill. I learnt adults butterfly chicken cooked on a grill purely for chicken.  This is fine and what we ordered however nandos need to take note of your practises for the safety of celiac children. my daughter has been ill from their nandinos chicken before and i emailed head office and they wouldnt accept responsibility

      I agree with @RMJ, you have multiple positive tests so celiac disease is likely.  This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease.
