Exhausted And Sick

For the past few weeks I have been totally exhausted, weak, and with a fever. These symptoms just come and go as they please and have left me quite confused. I get so tired I sleep all the time and if I'm not in bed then I want to be in bed, and there are days when I get a fever and am so weak I can't hardly leave my bed. I'm wondering if this could be from the celiac disease, and my gluten-free diet. I'm going to a doctor this week to see what they can tell me, but I was wondering if anyone else has had anything like this happen or if anyone knows what could be wrong. Let me know if you have any suggestions on what I can do to start feeling like myself again, and to get my energy up.

How long has this been going on? If only for a couple (few) weeks, then the fever could indicate an infection somewhere. It's good that you're doing to the doctor, because it sounds like you need some labwork. Any other symptoms than fatigue and temperature? Sore abdomen? Diarrhea? Painful when you urinate? And so on.

Hi,

I have the same problems you do. I'm not sure what it is either. I did have mono not to long ago so I thought it was that, but it isn't. I have had many tests done, but none were helpful. I have been sick like this and unable to do anything for the last month. New theories are that it may be another food allergy (already have intolerance to gluten and temporarily to dairy), my doctor is also looking into problems with my thyroid, and i just started looking into candida. Hope this helps. Let me know how it goes and if you discover anything new. Best of luck! :)

      Worsening vision 🕵🏽‍♀️

      By trents · Posted

      Vitamin A is important for vision health. But be careful in supplementing it as it can lead to toxicity. Research it and consult with your medical professional. I do not have a definite answer to your original question but I was pursuing the possible cause of nutritional deficiency. But your visual deterioration could be unrelated to your celiac disease so don't rule that out.

      By Name · Posted

      Currently 19. Doctors think I was 1 year old when celiac started, but I wasn't diagnosed until 18, because they didn't do lab work on minors. I've been on a strict gluten-free diet for 14 months now. For example only certified gluten-free nuts and I've researched best brands a lot. I take B vitamins, vitamin D, vitamin C, Curcumin with black pepper, black sesame and green tea extract, magnesium, iron, and a little selenium and zinc, beef liver capsules. I recently had my vitamin and mineral levels retested and D is the only one I don't have enough of now. I had my eyes tested at 17 and they were good back then.

      Awaiting dermatitis herpetiformis confirmation following biopsy

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Not everyone with dermatitis herpetiformis needs to avoid iodine. DH is caused by gluten exposure, but iodine can worsen or trigger flares in a subset of people, especially when the rash is active or not yet controlled by a strict gluten-free diet. Some people react to iodized salt, seaweed, shellfish, or iodine supplements, while others tolerate normal dietary iodine without problems. In most cases, iodine restriction is individualized and often temporary, not a lifelong rule for everyone.

      Questions: How old are you now? How long ago were you diagnosed as having celiac disease? Do you practice a strict gluten-free diet? Are you taking vitamin and mineral supplements to offset the nutrient malabsorption issues typical of celiac disease and if so, can you elaborate on what you are taking?

      My vision was good as a teen and now has gotten worse in the last year. Could that be caused by my celiac disease?🤓😎🥸👓🕶️
