@Heatherisle, Newly diagnosed people often suffer from nutritional deficiencies. Thiamine B1 stores can be depleted within a few weeks. Thiamine deficiency can be localized in the gastrointestinal tract causing Gastrointestinal Beriberi. It is under diagnosed by doctors! Dysfunction of the gallbladder can be seen in Gastrointestinal Beriberi... -

Thiamine and other B vitamins are available without a prescription, but it's always best to discuss supplementing with your doctor and dietician. I take Thiamine Hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and Thiamine TTFD. (Avoid Thiamine Mononitrate because it's not well absorbed or used by brain f bodies.) Benfotiamine especially helps heal the gastrointestinal... -

So far, current research does not show that celiac disease directly “destroys” the gallbladder or routinely causes it to need removal. What we do know is that undiagnosed or untreated celiac disease can affect digestion in several ways, including changes in bile flow and fat absorption, which may increase the risk of gallstones in some people. That said, ga... -

@Heatherisle, Newly diagnosed people often suffer from nutritional deficiencies. Thiamine B1 stores can be depleted within a few weeks. Thiamine deficiency can be localized in the gastrointestinal tract causing Gastrointestinal Beriberi. It is under diagnosed by doctors! Dysfunction of the gallbladder can be seen in Gastrointestinal Beriberi. Have your daughter mention the possibility of Gastrointestinal Beriberi to her dietician! Gastrointestinal Beriberi will be improved with high dose Thiamine administration, orally or by IV. It's important to have thiamine deficiency corrected as quickly as possible to prevent life threatening health problems and risk permanent damage. I had Gastrointestinal Beriberi but my doctors did not recognize it. My thiamine deficiency progressed to Wernickes Encephalopathy. My doctors diagnosed me as "depressed". I corrected the thiamine deficiency at home with over the counter Thiamine Hydrochloride tablets. I'm very thankful I studied Nutrition. See if the symptoms match: Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/ Gastrointestinal Beriberi Presenting With Chronic Diarrhea: A Case Report https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12794365/ -

I take Thiamine Hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and Thiamine TTFD. (Avoid Thiamine Mononitrate because it's not well absorbed or used by brain f bodies.) Benfotiamine especially helps heal the gastrointestinal tract. Thiamine TTFD is great for improving brain function and mood. They all work to improve everything, but Thiamine TTFD through the blood brain barrier the easiest, so the brain starts working to control everything better. Every form of Thiamine needs magnesium to make enzymes. I like Magnesium Threonate which enters the brain more easily than other forms. Low magnesium contributes to anxiety and depression. The eight B vitamins all work together, so a B Complex is a good idea. Don't worry if it already has thiamine in it. The B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted. I get mine online. -

So far, current research does not show that celiac disease directly “destroys” the gallbladder or routinely causes it to need removal. What we do know is that undiagnosed or untreated celiac disease can affect digestion in several ways, including changes in bile flow and fat absorption, which may increase the risk of gallstones in some people. That said, gallbladder disease is also very common in the general population, particularly among women, and many people have their gallbladders removed for reasons unrelated to celiac disease. In some cases, digestive symptoms from undiagnosed celiac may be mistaken for gallbladder problems, which can complicate the picture. So while there may be overlap, it is not accurate to say that celiac disease routinely destroys the gallbladder or that most people with celiac will need it removed. -
Currently having to stop because of mri imaging and past medical stuff that was told to stop with vitamins that would interfere. I keep asking if im diabetic because of the Ketones and when I looked up it mirrors my issues but im negative supposedly. Its all because Im not eating gluten because formerly diagnosed celiac back then just food consumption. Issues is in Cali they aren't addressing the autoimmune part which im currently battling as " just the flu they call it" not its my controlled by mouth celiac but not controlled autoimmune part which last employment damn near killed me as a bus driver and thats the celiac malpractice issue. No care of the patient, as im in this situation. Celiac should follow FOREVER in medical records no matter marriage change name, insurance change, change of anything.It is a battle that is not fair to the patients at all.
