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.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.

      Is it gluten?

      @par18, no, Scott's use of the term "false negative" is intentional and appropriate. The "total IGA" test is not a test used to diagnose celiac disease per se. The IGA immune spectrum response encompasses more than just celiac disease. So, "total IGA" refers to the whole pie, not just the celiac response part of it. But if the whole pie is deficient, the...

      This may be the problem. Every time you eat gluten it is like giving a booster shot to your immune system, telling it to react and produce antibodies again.

      Scott, I am mostly asymptomatic. I was diagnosed based on high antibodies, low ferritin (3) and low vitamin D (10). I wasn't able to get in for the biopsy until 3 months after the blood test came back. I was supposed to keep eating gluten during this time. Well why would I continue doing something that I know to be harmful for 3 more months to just get...

The IGA immune spectrum response encompasses more than just celiac disease. So, "total IGA" refers to the whole pie, not just the celiac response part of it. But if the whole pie is deficient, the spectrum of components making it up will likely be also, including the celiac disease response spectrum. In other words, IGA deficiency may produce a tTG-IGA score that is negative that might have been positive had there not been IGA deficiency. So, the tTG-IGA negative score may be "false", i.e, inaccurate, aka, not to be trusted.

      Scott, I am mostly asymptomatic. I was diagnosed based on high antibodies, low ferritin (3) and low vitamin D (10). I wasn't able to get in for the biopsy until 3 months after the blood test came back. I was supposed to keep eating gluten during this time. Well why would I continue doing something that I know to be harmful for 3 more months to just get this test? So I did quit gluten and had the biopsy. It was negative for celiacs. I continued gluten free with iron supps and my ferritin came back up to a reasonable, but not great level of around 30-35.  Could there be something else going on? Is there any reason why my antibodies would be high (>80) with a negative biopsy? could me intestines have healed that quickly (3 months)?  I'm having a hard time staying gluten free because I am asymptomatic and i'm wondering about that biopsy. I do have the celiacs gene, and all of the antibody tests have always come back high. I recently had them tested again. Still very high. I am gluten free mostly, but not totally. I will occasionally eat something with gluten, but try to keep to a minimum. It's really hard when the immediate consequences are nil.  with high antibodies, the gene, but a negative biopsy (after 3 months strict gluten-free), do i really have celiacs? please say no. lol. i think i know the answer.  Asa

      I have had a long year of testing unfortunately still not diagnosed , although one thing they definitely agree I'm gluten intolerant, the thing for me I have severe back troubles they wouldnt perform the tests and I couldn't have a full MRI because I'm allergic to the solution , we tryed believe me  I tryed lol , another was to have another blood test after consuming gluten but it makes me so bad I tryed it for only a week, and because I have a trapped sciatic nerve when I get bad bowels it sets that off terribly so I just take it on myself now , I eat a gluten free diet , I'm the best I've ever been , and if I slip I know it so for me i have my own diagnosis  and I act accordingly, sometimes it's not so straight forward for some of us , for the first time in years I can plan to go out , and I have been absorbing my food better , running to the toilet has become occasionally now instead of all the time , i hope you find a solution 🤗
