I'm not sure this is the same, but I remember that my brain would not engage my mouth. I could not pronounce words I was very familiar with and I had difficulty finishing a sentence. My words got all tied up.

My mouth was always very dry. Seventy percent of the fluids that we take in are absorbed in the small intestines. Will the villi damaged, you don't get the fluids you need to function properly.

This is a sign of malabsorption. B-12 injection were extremely helpful in the early days of my diagnosis. And drink lots of water.

Wow!! Yes, this happens to me, too. I just thought it was from letting myself get too tired. I just realized that I haven't had this problem since I have been more careful about CC.

The only thing that helps me through it is vocal rest and body rest.

I was chronically dry and was having problems with dysphonia. I am a voice teacher so this was a real problem. I couldn't drink enough water. Turns out my leaky gut was really causing much of the trouble. Now that I am gluten-free and paleo as well I only drink a few little sips of water to take my supplements of D, Calcium, Magnesium and Zinc. Otherwise I get my fluids from the fruits and veggies I eat daily. I am no longer dehydrated and my vocal health has gotten remarkably better as well as my dry eyes. You may also want to try relaxing your breath as far down into your body as you can if you have been struggling to speak. You may be doing the equivalent of trying to drive down the street with your foot on the brake if you are becoming apprehensive about your voice. When you try to push more air through a dehydrated instrument you actually increase the probability of vocal dysfunction. Think of speaking from your body..clear down to your toes, instead of forcing from your throat. Hope you feel better soon.

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?

      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
