Uggh, I know I haven't had anything with gluten but for 2 days now I've been having the D again. I haven't had anything with dairy. I'm thinking I'm reacting to soy too, but hoping I'm not. :(

Anyone else intolerant to soy?

I am. It took me awhile to pinpoint it...I was so happy that I could still have coffee with soy milk, and then the symptoms started. I'm sorry you're not feeling well.

Me too. I didn't do soy milk but ate a lot of stuff with soy after I was diagnosed. It took me a while to figure it out also.

Yes, not fgood stuff unless fermented, in my opinion.

Also look back at anything that might have changed in the last week. Have you tried a new lotion, shampoos or gone out to eat someplace? Are you doing any new craft projects or home remodeling? Could you have picked up a virus or perhaps eaten something that gave you food poisoning? I don't know where you are from but there have been some eggs recalled for salmonella recently in I think the midwest.

I heard about the egg recall, does it apply to organic? We use Phil's eggs. I'll have to check it out.

Nothing new has changed, everything's the same, I'm thinking it's soy.

Couple of ideas. My daughter continued to have stomach issues after going gluten-free and the Dr. said irritable bowel syndrome is common in people with celiac so you might look up IBS triggers and try cutting out some of those foods.

Not sure how old you are but I started taking a natural estrogen supplement and wow, did it upset my system!!

Goodluck and sorry you are having issues.....

YES! Soy is evil. But for me, I can tell the difference between soy and gluten. Gluten means a quick trip to the ladies room, followed by a deep sleep. Followed by no sleep that night, followed by no bathroom for a few days, Ah, the contradictions. Soy gives me high blood pressure, along with stomach pain that feels like toothpicks jabbing through my stomach. That only lasts for a few hours. I avoid both.

I do have IBS and I try to eat grain-free as much as possible. I'm also gluten and dairy-free and I guess try to avoid soy now too. I eat only organic food, non-GMO, I don't eat/use anything w/ food colors, additives or anything artificial. I think I live pretty healthy. :)

      Hello, @Jordan Carlson, So glad you're feeling better.   Tecta is a proton pump inhibitor.  PPI's also interfere with the production of the intrinsic factor needed to absorb Vitamin B12.  Increasing the amount of B12 you supplement has helped overcome the lack of intrinsic factor needed to absorb B12. Proton pump inhibitors also reduce the production of digestive juices (stomach acids).  This results in foods not being digested thoroughly.  If foods are not digested sufficiently, the vitamins and other nutrients aren't released from the food, and the body cannot absorb them.  This sets up a vicious cycle. Acid reflux and Gerd are actually symptoms of producing too little stomach acid.  Insufficient stomach acid production is seen with Thiamine and Niacin deficiencies.  PPI's like Tecta also block the transporters that pull Thiamine into cells, preventing absorption of thiamine.  Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are difficulty swallowing, gagging, problems with food texture, dysphagia. Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are symptoms of ADHD and anxiety.  Vyvanse also blocks thiamine transporters contributing further to Thiamine deficiency.  Pristiq has been shown to work better if thiamine is supplemented at the same time because thiamine is needed to make serotonin.  Doctors don't recognize anxiety and depression and adult onset ADHD as early symptoms of Thiamine deficiency. Stomach acid is needed to digest Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) in fruits and vegetables.  Ascorbic acid left undigested can cause intestinal upsets, anxiety, and heart palpitations.   Yes, a child can be born with nutritional deficiencies if the parents were deficient.  Parents who are thiamine deficient have offspring with fewer thiamine transporters on cell surfaces, making thiamine deficiency easier to develop in the children.  A person can struggle along for years with subclinical vitamin deficiencies.  Been here, done this.  Please consider supplementing with Thiamine in the form TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) which helps immensely with dysphagia and neurological symptoms like anxiety, depression, and ADHD symptoms.  Benfotiamine helps with improving intestinal health.  A B Complex and NeuroMag (a magnesium supplement), and Vitamin D are needed also.

      @pothosqueen, Welcome to the tribe! You'll want to get checked for nutritional deficiencies and start on supplementation of B vitamins, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1.   There's some scientific evidence that the fat pad that buffers the aorta which disappears in SMA is caused by deficiency in Thiamine.   In Thiamine deficiency, the body burns its stored fat as a source of fuel.  That fat pad between the aorta and digestive system gets used as fuel, too. Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test to look for thiamine deficiency.  Correction of thiamine deficiency can help restore that fat pad.   Best wishes for your recovery!   Interesting Reading: Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome in a 6-Year-Old Girl with Final Diagnosis of Celiac Disease https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31089433/#:~:text=Affiliations,tissue and results in SMAS.

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.
