Medrol Dose Pack

So, I had a minor cold, wound up with an ear infection, now the fluid won't clear and I've started this dose pack. The next step is a tube placement.

I had lots of ear infections before I was diagnosed supposedly because of Epstien-Barr virus. When I finally had my tonsils out, they stopped.

I haven't gotten any relief yet, but my ARMS are killing me. It's the pain I had when my B12 was so low and undiagnosed. I just had a shot so I know it isn't low.

Okay, so I'm just miserable. Is all this because of the celiac? Has the EBV become active again? My dr knows nothing. :angry:

Maybe someone will have an answer for me. I want to bang my head on the table.

My ds use to have recurring ear infections so bad his ear drums would rupture. Finally saw a specialist who suggest we remove all dairy from his diet. Cleared it up. You could try that if you are not already dairy free.

Wish I had a magic wand for you!

      New to gluten-free

      Just so you'll know, once you have been gluten-free for any length of time, it will invalidate testing for celiac disease.

      Yes. I have not been tested for celiac. It took forever to get diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. lol. I have an appointment with my regular GP later this month and will convey my findings on improved symptoms and see what his thoughts are. Thank you.

      @Grahamsnaturalworld, It's never too late.   Have you been checked for Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth?  SIBO can cause ongoing symptoms.  Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) and Histamine Intolerance (HIT) can also be the cause of ongoing symptoms.  The AIP diet can help with these by starving out SIBO bacteria and calming the immune system. Do you include dairy in your diet?  Casein in dairy can cause an autoimmune response the same as to gluten.  Have you been checked for lactose intolerance?  Some people lose the ability to produce the enzyme, lactase, needed to digest lactose, the sugar in dairy because the villi where the lactase enzyme is made are...

      Ok, thanks for the advice, the only advice I've had that's made sense after 21years since my slight symptoms all my life turned into nasty symptoms 21 yrs ago and around 50 gp's and specialists all chasing the symptoms and not looking for the cause, after 9 years of misery I discovered my symptoms matched celiac disease and a blood test proved anti bodies to gliadin but it was too late it has changed into r.c.d. thanks again.

      Welcome to the forum, @QueenBorg! Just for the sake of clarification, your desire to avoid gluten is connected only with your dx of fibromyalgia and not celiac disease, correct?
