Just Starting The Process

I'm just now starting the process of trying to figure out what is going on w/my body. I just got results from food allergy tests, and the only thing I reacted to were egg whites. My MD suspects gallbladder, but after reading about issues w/the gallbladder, I tend to think it's more food related. I've just started an elimination diet and meet w/a nutritionist next week. Yesterday was an awesome day! It was the first day I've been pain and gas free. It was wonderful. Can't say the same about today. I ate pretty much the exact same breakfast and lunch. However, this afternoon was very painful. I kind of think that my body probably needs time to get rid of decades of ick. Anyway, I'm hopeful. I'd love to hear your beginning experiences. Am I right to think that it will take a while to get my body at a fairly neutral state? I was just so hopeful because yesterday was wonderful. One more thing - eating my new "natural" diet, I am not hungry. I'm stunned! I've eliminated starch and refined sugar. It's amazing how I'm simply not hungry. It's a real first!

TIA for your insight, sharing, and wisdom.

:ph34r: I'm sorry to tell you but you can have a gall bladder problem and Celiac. My gall bladder was making me really sick and it definately was better or worse depending on what I ate. :ph34r:

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles...

      Going Low-Gluten May Harm Good Gut Bacteria, Researchers Warn

      It's like a double edged sword.......we do one thing to improve a problem and cause another problem. I'd like to think the ultimate cure might be something that would train or modify the body to prevent the damage that gluten causes.

      You might try Heallix. It's a silver solution with fulvic acid. I just put the solution on with a cotton ball. It seemed to stop the nerve pain. Again, not in your eyes or ears. Go to heallix.com to read more about it and decide for yourself Also, I do think nerve and celiac combined have a lot to do with your susceptibility to shingles breaking out...

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      Celiac disease requires both genetic potential and a triggering stress event to activate the genes. Otherwise it remains dormant and only a potential problem. So having the genetic potential is not deterministic for celiac disease. Many more people have the genes than actually develop the disease. But if you don't have the genes, the symptoms are likely being caused by something else.
