Any One Else Have Issues With When They Wake Up As Apposed To How Much Sleep

ok so i got told i had celiac disease a year ago about. was trying to be fully gluten free since july/aug range but was accidently glutening my self with some ingredients (corn flake crumbs i had use malt in them and i was eating some steak sauce with malt vinegar in it that i didnt realize) so ive been gluten free to the best of my abilities for over a month now i think.

any way its always seemed for me that even with 9 hours of sleep waking up early (for me at least), pretty much before about 9 ish i seem really tired all day, yet i can sleep 6 hours and get up at 10 and not be tired. maybe its more so what im getting up for (i have classes but they are studio classes so i am physically working most of the time in them).

also my stomach bothers me more when i wake up early not sure whats up with it, if its really related or what ever

any one else have similar issues?

My sleep patterns where all messed up until I started taking B12. I use the sublingual methylcobalamin type. Things slowly got better month after month. I have much more energy too, but the main thing is that the supplements (not just B12) have resolved the severe nerve/muscle pains, twitching, numbness, etc.

B12 is vital for many things, including serotonin and melatonin production. And since there is no known level of overdose for B12, it can't hurt to try it! Just make sure to read the label!

thanks, i havent been taking my multi vitamin since i was taking one a day and while there wasnt gluten items in it they say they cannot guarantee what it gets in contact with and all, my parents picked up some multi vitamins for me from our applied kinesiologist so i will get them hopefully today if i can make it back home (the company that makes them guarantee all their stuff is gluten-free and our AK said this formula is the one i should take as apposed to the one my rents take (has some different iron and iodine levels))

so i got my multi vitamin and only have been taking them for 5-6 days and wow i feel much better. it says to take 6 a day but our alternative medicine guy told us to take 4/day. but the daily value of 6/day in the b12 category is 7500%. i already have been sleeping better and waking up more easily and the stomach issues i was having the last few weeks have calmed down (knock on wood). its made by Thorne Research (i take the basic nutrients II, my parents take a different one that has slightly different things in the metals and iodine levels) and when i called them the lady i talked to said everything they make is gluten-free. honestly dont know the cost of them but i got a bottle of 180 so it will last 45 days.

score one for the supplements

      Thanks to everybody for your help. I reread the dr's notes from the biopsy procedure and it seems I had worse than atrofied villi. It was termed flattened mucosa. So while iron ferratin levels are normal my bet is, as kitty alluded to, iron not getting into cells. I have dr appointment next mo but don't hold out a lot of hope, There is strong correlation of low red blood cells and insomnia so at least I finally solved that one after few yrs of being mislead. I intend to take stop taking 100 mg b1 at noon time and start 150 mg benfotiamin. I may or may not add the the 100 mg b1evening meal. BTW, last night had 1/3 lb beef. potato then 2 bowls cereal and an apple later in the eve. I generally do my areobics before supper so maybe that contributes to the hunger.

      I have osteoporosis and have crushed three vertebrae.  I supplement with Lysine, Tryptophan, threonine, calcium, Boron, Vitamins D, A, and K, and the B vitamins (folate, B12, and Thiamine B1 especially for bone health).   I tried Fosomax, but it tore up my insides.  I prefer the supplements.  I feel better and my bones feel stronger.   References: A composite protein enriched with threonine, lysine, and tryptophan improves osteoporosis by modulating the composition and metabolism of the gut microbiota https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41915427/

      @Aileen Cregan, I was put on high blood pressure medication, too. But I was able to correct my high blood pressure by supplementing with Thiamine Vitamin B 1.  I am no longer on high blood pressure medication.  I feel much better without the medication. I continue to supplement Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine.   The particular high blood pressure medication I took was Norvasc (amlodipine), which causes thiamine deficiency by blocking thiamine transporters so that thiamine cannot enter cells.  Benfotiamine can get into cells by merging with the cell membrane, thus bypassing nonfunctional thiamine transporters.   Indapamide also blocks thiamine transporters! The use of this type of medications that block thiamine precipitated Wernickes Encephalopathy.  My doctors did not recognize the connection to Thiamine deficiency.  I nearly died.   Talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing with Benfotiamine, a fat soluble form of thiamine that bypasses thiamine transporters.  Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity Assay to check your thiamine levels asap.  Routine blood tests for thiamine are not an accurate measure of  thiamine in the body.   Absorption of essential vitamins like Thiamine is altered in Celiac Disease due to damaged villi, inflammation and dysbiosis.  The Gluten Free diet can be lacking in vitamins and minerals.  Discuss supplementing with all the eight B vitamins,  the four fat soluble vitamins and necessary minerals. Please keep us posted on your progress!

      Hi, @Sue7171, I thought you might be interested in this article about Lyme disease and the discussion after the article.   I found this article enlightening.  The finding that not only can alpha gal be problematic, but advantageous infection with Staph aureus can be problematic.   The Acari Hypothesis, VII: accounting for the comorbidity of allergy with other contemporary medical conditions, especially metabolic syndrome https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11983536/
