I Can'T Get Rid Of My Canker Sores!


glutefree

Recommended Posts

glutefree Rookie

Hi, I am desperate. I have been cankersores nonstop! I have been gluten free for about 1.5 years and all was going well until a few months ago. It seems that I have a duodenal ulcer, but I also have cankersores everywhere and once they heal I get more of them. I have been checking and rechecking my diet to see if I am getting gluten. Someone mentioned that I may have another food intolerance causing them.

Any advice or thoughts are appreciated.

It would be helpful to know if you have any other symptoms other than the canker sores. What are your doctors doing for your duodenal ulcer?

Yes, other food intolerances are a possibility; do you avoid anything other than gluten? And do you keep a food diary? Are you on any other medications? Methotrexate gave me apthous ulcers in the mouth.

I'd agree that it could be some additional food intolerance. If you eat dairy, that would be my first suspect. The remaining top allergens should also be considered, though without more insight, there's no way anyone can be certain. It sounds like you'll need to avoid some foods for awhile and see what happens. Once you get relief, challenge each food you've been avoiding, one at a time, until you narrow down the culprit(s).

      Interesting, when I suffered for a few months with ectopics I noticed that carbohydrates would cause indigestion and bloating in my stomach, then that would lead to my heart skipping beats, and I could feel it in my throat, it was very unsettling.  My last serious bout of this was after eating a Muller Rice Pudding for breakfast.   I happened to be wearing a 48 hour halter at the time and cardiology picked it up, but they weren't worried about what they saw. There was some British doctor who'd made some videos on the Vagus nerve that I remember watching at the time which made sense of what I was experiencing, there did seem to be some sort of connection.

      I asked my cardiologist about stopping vitamins.  He said his tests account for all detectable vitamins from sources other than food.  I only need to stop them for a couple of days.  He has me keep records of meds and vitamins I've ingested over the past 10 days and prior and he does his calculations.

      Reply to treats I try and eat to bring up the glucose. Sometime I get up 3 times a night and eat something. I don't think food is the issue. A lot of the food they say should help doesn't.  Many mornings my level is 59 and I feel sick, sometimes for hours. It has been recommended I go to an Endocrinologist.
