Hi-

Im new to this- Im still in the process of getting a diagnosis - its been a long and miserable 5 months. Does anyone here get nausea, hot flashes, and hallucinations at night - that keep you up tossing and turning????. In the morning I usually have some sort of bowel movement-and by then i feel like I want to rip my insides out. the nausea will stay with me the rest of the day. uggh

I can relate to some of what you describe, but I think it was partially due to yeast overgrowth. However, Celiac can cause the symptoms you describe. Perhaps if you look at when you consume gluten, it might correlate with how you feel throughout the day.

One thing you might try, is to avoid gluten for a few days, just to see how you feel. But as long as you're pursuing testing, it is recommended to continue consuming gluten. This is because test accuracy gets even worse than it already is as the antibodies and intestinal damage diminish. The antibodies typically begin to decline at about two weeks, so one gluten-free week should be ok for a trial.

Anyway, regardless of test results, do try the gluten-free diet. Many have found that it helps, even when all tests are negative.

Hope you feel better soon!

Yes, many many nights. I was diagnosed with reactive hypoglycemia. I"ve changed my diet and no longer have any of those nasty symptoms.

Does your heart race too? Ears ring? Wake up feeling like you just ran for your life?

What you discribe sounds like low blood sugar. - Part of the celiac experience for some of us. It will get better but you will have to watch carbs. If your interested I can help you out with this. Send me an email.

Hello. I can relate to what you are describing. I get really bad nausea at night accompanied by waking up in the middle of the night sweating and ripping the covers off of me. I have been gluten free for 9 months but I think it takes a while to pass. I started going to bed absolutely freezing and shaking only to wake up later burning up. I don't have hallucinations but I do have bad dreams. My sleep issues seem to get better the longer I am gluten free however. Hopefully yours will improve as well.

I don't have problems at night, but in the morning, just as I'm leaving for work, my stomach lurches and I feel the urge to vomit. Could be my breakfast having gluten without my knowledge, could be me just hating my job. <_<

Either way, you should try the diet. I'm awaiting test results too, doing the three month window before the biopsy, and I feel soooo much better. Course i want to kill people when they bring donuts to work, but it makes you feel strong, knowing you won't eat what you know you can't have. A small moral victory, but a victory nonetheless.

      Help!  My 5 year old daughter just stopped eating dairy and gluten due to her EoE and Celiac.  Her favorite candy in the world is tootsie rolls.  I did some research, and it sounds like these are the only options for finding something similar, but I can't find them anywhere to actually purchase.  Have they been discontinued??  Does anyone have another recommendation for a gluten-free/DF tootsie roll option?

      I wonder how long it usually takes and if it is dose dependent as well... or if some ppl have a more pronounced reaction to gluten than others   thanks again for all the great info

      Wow KK, thank you so much for all your attached info. I had a very quick scan but will read more in depth later.  The one concerning corticosteroid use is very interesting. That would relate to secondary adrenal insufficiency I think , ie AI caused by steroids such as taken long term for eg asthma. I have primary autoimmune AI, my adrenals are atrophied, no chance if recovery there. But I am in touch with some secondaries, so something to bear in mind. .  Niacin B3 Very interesting too. Must have a good read about that.  Im sure lots of questions will arise as I progress with dermatitis herpetiformis. In the mean time, thanks for your help.

      Welcome to the forum, @suek54, I have Dermatitis Herpetiformis, too.  I found taking Niacin B3 very helpful in clearing my skin from blisters as well as improving the itchies-without-rash (peripheral neuropathy).  Niacin has been used since the 1950's to improve dermatitis herpetiformis.   I try to balance my iodine intake (which will cause flairs) with Selenium which improves thyroid function.   Interesting Reading: Dermatitis herpetiformis effectively treated with heparin, tetracycline and nicotinamide https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10844495/   Experience with selenium used to recover adrenocortical function in patients taking glucocorticosteroids long https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24437222/   Two Cases of Dermatitis Herpetiformis Successfully Treated with Tetracycline and Niacinamide https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30390734/   Steroid-Resistant Rash With Neuropsychiatric Deterioration and Weight Loss: A Modern-Day Case of Pellagra https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12532421/#:~:text=Figure 2.,(right panel) upper limbs.&text=The distribution of the rash,patient's substantial response to treatment.   Nicotinic acid therapy of dermatitis herpetiformis (1950) https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15412276/

      Thank you all for your advice and the dermatitis herpetiformis article. The latter made me realise I had stopped taking my antihistamine, which I will restart today. The Dapsone has cleared the rash entirely but I still get quite a bit itching, absolutely nothing to see though. I know its notoriously hard to clear and its still relatively early days for me.  The iodine issue is very interesting. I do eat quite a bit of salt because I have Addison's disease and sodium retention is an issue. I also have autoimmune hypothyroidism, not sure how a low iodine diet would play into that? Because of my Addison's I am totally steroid dependent, I take steroids 4 x daily and cannot mount any defence against inflammation. I need to increase my meds for that. Now that I know what is wrong I can do just that if Im having a bad day. Life is very sweet, just so damn complicated sometimes! Hey ho, onwards. Thank you again for your advice.
