Not Celiac After All? (this Is Urgent)

I'm starting to conclude that I may not be Celiac after all. I've only experience changes with absence of gluten due to a introduction to new food in my diet, and say healthier ( like high consumption of Vitamin D lately), prompting better health conditions. I remember re-calling many improvements I began to notice, and so thought on what I just stated above and the improvements in areas... thought of what I have been consuming in high amounts ( I guess Vitamin D and Calcium are a few) and looked their benefits online. What I found in Vitamin D benefits are many improvements I've noticed.

Few benefits:

I do see my doctor June 1st, and instead of being tested for anxiety I think it's urgent that I'm tested for allergies. Have anyone experience/ know anyone who found not to be Celiac but thought so due to better choices of food? Could this likely be my problem? I have seen little to no changes in the lump on the back of my head, I think I will go and consume wheat and see my reactions. It may be likely that I could be allergic to something in the air, or something else.

Hi! Did you get the blood work done? That can give you some guidance here (but you have to be eating gluten when you get the it done so you don't get a false negative).

Sounds like you need piece of mind. Get tested for Celiac and then move on if it isn't the problem.

So stop my gluten free diet and get tested first? Or eat gluten a day or two before testing/ doctors?

I'm not sure how long you've been gluten-free :unsure: but if it's for any length of time it is recommended that you go back on a HIGH gluten diet for SIX WEEKS before you have any tests

Good Luck :)

My assistant's son had lumps on the back of his head/neck and it was related to ongoing sinus problems. When those were addressed, the lumps slowly went away.

      For back pain, I take a combination of Cobalamine B12, Pyridoxine B 6, and Thiamine B 1 (in the form Benfotiamine), which have an analgesic effect.  These three B vitamins together work way better than those over the counter pain relievers.  Theses are water soluble B vitamins that are easily excreted via the kidneys if not needed.  Thiamine will also help the nausea.

      @stephaniekl, welcome to the forum, Is your daughter taking any nutritional supplements?   Weight loss and failure to thrive are two symptoms of thiamine insufficiency.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms are not recognized as such by doctors.   I experienced similar symptoms when I became malnourished.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms can become worse quickly, and can affect one emotionally and mentally.  Although blood tests for thiamine aren't accurate, do have your daughter checked for nutritional deficiencies.  Thiamine B 1 works with the other B vitamins and magnesium.  Thiamine and Niacin B 3 help improve Gerd.  All the B vitamins are frequently low due to malabsorption.  Vitamin D will help calm the immune system.  Thiamine helps the immune system fight off viruses like those tick borne illnesses.   Thiamine Mononitrate, which is in many vitamin supplements, is not bioavailable.  I was taking a multivitamin containing thiamine mononitrate and still became deficient in thiamine. Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing.  A form called TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) is also excellent for correcting thiamine deficiency.  A combination of Thiamine, Cobalamine B12, and Pyridoxine B 6 has analgesic properties.  I take it for back pain.   Keep us posted on your progress!

      Has prednisone or some other systemic steroid been tried that might quiet her immune system down for a while? I have two acquaintances with Lyme's disease. It is a wicked condition that has long fingers.

      We have.  She is so limited as to what she can eat.  She has a nutritionist, but they are even at a loss.  Right now, her pain is so significant that she can only eat 5-10 bites a meal.   We just got some labs back today and she is hypoglycemia, anemic and her immune system is shot.  She also is positive for 3 tickborne illnesses.  Thanks for your help!

      A much better suggestion than that of the new doctor!
