Very Weird Symptom...?


HelpinOhio

My sheets have green stains on them. Just where my body and head touches the sheets and pillow case. There is something coming out of my body that is green and stains my sheets and pillow case when I sleep. It doesnt come out in the wash, it has ruined a few pillow cases. I thought it was just recently, but I look at my sheets from up to 6 years ago, and they are all stained green where my body was. Ive never seen this with anybody before. I am a very clean person, so its even more odd.

Has anyone ever heard of this before?

Im a 18 year old male and have had a mystery disease for nearly 7 years now, Ive been to doctors many times and they cant find out what it is. Ive had horrible symptoms for the past 1 1/2 years that has mostly kept me from even leaving my house. I finally think that I know what it is...Celiac Disease. Ive noticed that the more gluten I eat, the worse I feel. My mom was diagnosed with Celiac Disease years ago, but she never told me that she had it until 1 year ago. Most my symptoms match up.

I have 2 theories on this green stuff. 1. Something with the celiac Disease is doing something with my sweat glands to put a green tint to it. 2. The green stuff is excess toxins from my body that are coming out when I sleep. Im constipated, and I feel that my kidneys arent functioning properly to get all the toxins out because of Celiac Disease. Its a very weird symptom.

I'm not ruling out a disease process, but what about a chemical reaction from a lotion you are using. I discolored several shirts when I was a teen/early 20's with a acne medication for my back.

Wishing you the best figuring out the mystery.

I dont use any lotion. When I do use lotion its only on my hands in the winter.

I would get your liver checked.

Before this starts an "heated topic" I'm going off the chicken pox virus scenario. When the liver is overworked trying to detox (chicken pox virus) the body it resorts to the next system ~ the skin to flush out the toxins (the pox on the skin).

So I agree with your theory, and think liver testing could help find an answer. A lot of people post here about elevated liver enzyme test results.

Seeing as you're from Ohio and your body is bleeding green I would say you must be an Ohio University Bobcat!

Joking aside I hope you are okay and able to figure out what the heck is going on! I wish I could be of more help but, aside from the liver check I have no clue?

Best of luck.....

No, its nowhere near that green. And Im not even sure if its the sweat thats green, its something coming out of my body. It could be toxins, sweat, maybe something else, Im not sure.

      Thanks, that's a great addition that I hadn't thought of.

      Other diseases, medical conditions, medications and even (for some people) some non-gluten foods can cause villous atrophy. There is also something called refractory celiac disease but it is pretty uncommon.

      knitty kitty asks a very relevant question. So many people make the mistake of experimenting with the gluten free diet or even a reduced gluten diet soon before getting formally tested.

      Another great fiber option is dried apricots. Four of them give you 3g of fiber and I find they don't produce all the gas that some other high fiber options do. They taste good too. Costco sells a large bag of them that are labeled gluten-free so you don't have to worry about cross contamination issues like you might in bulk grocery settings.

      Wow, that's alot of info, Thanks!!!! I had my intake with Nutrionist where we went over basics and then will have follow up where we will talk about all the questions I've come up with (including the fiber question and so many more). I'll talk to her about the info you provided as well.  Thanks again (newbie here 😀)
