Weird Tickle

Lately one leg or the other from time to time will feel like a fly or bug is crawling on it. When i look down, there's nothing there! It's happening every day but only once in a while.

Am I crazy or does anyone else get this?

My list of symptoms just keeps getting longer and longer the longer I'm gluten-free....

I get that every so often in both legs. I have to get up and walk around and it seems to help. Don't know if it's celiac disease related or not, but it sure is annoying. <_<

There is a medical name for this which has escaped me for right now. Those of us with neurological damage know this feeling well.

it's not just a tickle with me... my entire left leg feels like it's got spiders crawling all over it and then it will go painfully numb for hours at a time. This has been going on for about 6 years now and it's really annoying.

In small "doses", that's actually a perfectly normal feeling. If it's overwhelming and distracting from your normal life in how often it occurs, then it's worth talking to your doctor about neurologic problems.

I get that feeling all the time. Also, I also get another sensation of hot water being flicked on my legs......

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
