5 Years gluten-free- Still Having Health Issues

[jhow32000]

I have been strictly gluten-free since college. Some of my problems got much better, psychiatric sx, wasting, severe acne, severe bone pain. It almost seems like now I have more health issues. Lately I have still been having acne, joint pain the moves around a lot, severe colon and stomach pains, liver, spleen and kidney pain, insomnia and NO libido. I have no idea what the problem is or what to do about it. Anyone have any ideas?

It sounds like you may want to check your cosmetics/hygiene/food products again for hidden sources of gluten. Sometimes people incorporate a seemingly gluten-free item into their daily regimen only to find out later that it had gluten in it. For example, my floss had gluten and it was the last thing I thought to check!

Some people seem to see a resurgence of symptoms due to these hidden glutenings. If that's not it, you may want to schedule an appointment with a doctor to see if you have any other medical conditions.

You sound like you are in a pickle there. Have you consulted with your doctor yet? I think that would be the best advise on what they recommend. I had all those probs to, but after cutting all that gluten ingrd. out of my diet that all stopped.

Just in case here are some ingrd. that are fancy saying for gluten. I am sure you are aware of, but just to be on the safe side.

Gliadin

Globulin

Albumin

Einkom

Emmer

Spelt

Kamut

Triticale

Semolina

Durum flour

Graham flour

Bromated flour

Phosphated flour.

how are your energy levels? clear thinking? do you have very little muscle?

you may want to either do an elimination diet or start eating lots and lots of vegetables/getting plenty of water.
