Two Weeks Gluten Free And I Feel Like I Have A New Kid.

I posted before when we were one week gluten free. That first week was a little rough, my daughters (9 years old) anxiety was extremely high, her stomach was hurting and she was barely eating at all. This past week has been great. Her anxiety is not completely gone but she says it feels more manageable. She said her stomach feels better and has even said that she doesn't have diarrhea like she used too. The other change in her I've noticed is that she goes to sleep at night. She used to be up for an hour or two after I put her to bed and now she goes straight to sleep...not sure if that's a side effect of gluten intolerance, but it has changed from what it has been for years. She's also not getting up at 4:30 and staying up. Definitely gonna keep up with this gluten free thing and hope it keeps getting better.

      Pain in the right side of abdomen

      Hi Sorry not been on for a while. My daughter had a recent hospital stay as went to GP with slight blurred vision, lower back pain and tingling in hands and feet, slight balance problems. GP wanted to rule out stroke. Had recently started Vit B12 medication as blood test showed really low level of 30, folate was 2.2. Was admitted for 4 days, various...

      Another conversation with ChatGPT about hookworms

      I suppose it's all in how you ask the question. I just asked ChatGPT how much it would cost to resolve my gut issues the way hookworms have, and ChatGPT's response was "$15,000–$30,000/year for the most plausible UC biologic/small-molecule route, or $10,000–$40,000+/year for omalizumab-style allergy modulation". That assumes such medication actually wor...

      Another conversation with ChatGPT about hookworms

      My question to ChatGPT: Is purposeful Hookworm infection a reasonable treatment for those who have many food intolerance issues, including those with gluten intolerance who want to eat gluten? Answer: No — purposeful hookworm infection is not a reasonable or medically accepted treatment for broad food intolerance, gluten intolerance, or for p...

      1 Year Elimination Diet journey

      It has been a year since I started my Elimination diet from gluten. I have learned alot w/o being diagnosed (going through eating gluten for a test isn't happening) The first month or so were learning curve and I have learned to READ LABELS which are tricky as not just gluten but possibly wheat may affect you or other Gluten containing ingredients that are...

      Skin issues

      It may help to bring the clearest photos, avoid squeezing or digging at the bumps, and ask your doctor whether a skin scraping, culture, biopsy, or parasite/fungal evaluation would be appropriate based on what they see. Since you mentioned cats, it’s also worth asking about possible flea bites, mites, ringworm, or other pet-related skin issues, and checking w...

      Pain in the right side of abdomen

      By Heatherisle · Posted

      Hi  Sorry not been on for a while. My daughter had a recent hospital stay as went to GP with slight blurred vision, lower back pain and tingling in hands and feet, slight balance problems. GP wanted to rule out stroke. Had recently started Vit B12 medication as blood test showed really low level of 30, folate was 2.2. Was admitted for 4 days, various tests including head CT ruled out stroke but was commenced on B12 injections instead of tablets. Had follow up MRI 5 weeks ago and she is now being referred to neurology as possible transient lesion seen on frontal lobe, so something else to worry about. Hoping it’s all connected to her B12 levels. Her tingling seemed to settle after getting injections 3 times/ week for two weeks and has just had her 2nd monthly dose but a week late and felt the tingling coming back just before that.Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this.  Thanks for reading and sorry to be a pain!!!!

      1 Year Elimination Diet journey

      It has been a year since I started my Elimination diet from gluten. I have learned alot w/o being diagnosed (going through eating gluten for a test isn't happening) The first month or so were learning curve and I have learned to READ LABELS which are tricky as not just gluten but possibly wheat may affect you or other Gluten containing ingredients that are spelled out. I have found great protein bars w/o sugar alcohols as I noticed those increased gas. I have taken vitamins as suggested by members on this board. Started baking gluten free, when going out I have found gluten friendly restaurants. I have felt so much better since eliminating gluten/sugar alcohols. It is hard to find sugar free products but I limit myself to gluten free snacks as they have high sugar etc. I have been using Bobs Red Mill gluten-free oatmeal and One Degree Farmers oatmeal but I am looking to try some new breakfast ideas like Buckwheat or a great gluten-free cereal. Journey still continues and learning more and more.

Since you mentioned cats, it’s also worth asking about possible flea bites, mites, ringworm, or other pet-related skin issues, and checking with a veterinarian if your cats have itching or hair loss. Also, please tell your doctor about the topiramate change, meningioma, and the garlic, especially since you were told not to eat garlic. Even if your husband doesn’t see what you see, your symptoms are real and deserve a careful medical evaluation.

      4.5 years into diagnosis, eating gluten-free and still struggling: would love support, tips, & stories

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It sounds like you have an allergy or separate intolerance to quinoa, but there is the slight possibility it was somehow cross-contaminated with wheat, even though it was certified gluten-free.

      Celiac flare years after diagnosis

      By trents · Posted

      Unless gluten exposure is happening on a regular basis, it is doubtful that blood antibodies would show up elevated in testing. It takes time for them to build up to detectable levels.
