Numbness In The Torso

Hello everyone,

I am in search of some help here ! A little over a week ago I woke up and realized that the left side of my torso was completely numb. From my breast down to my groin and around the back up to my shoulder blade. It doesn't cross over the midline it is only on the left side. Also, twice this week I have got up in the morning and vomited undigested food from the night before's dinner. I have had blood work and an MRI but there was nothing that could have caused these symptoms found in either one. My son was diagnosed with Celiac just about 4 months ago. Any thoughts on whether or not my symptoms could be Celiac as well ? The Doctor's are stumped !

Just some thoughts, has your Dr. checked for a possible bowel obstruction or intussusception?

      Has your hubbie been checked for SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth)? This is not uncommon in the celiac population. https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/21820-small-intestinal-bacterial-overgrowth-sibo

      Update: I got a call on Monday from the GI doctor's office, they had a cancellation and an appointment opened up for Tuesday. Not much time to prepare, but I went ahead and did it anyway. I haven't been gluten free at any point, but I haven't really loaded up as much as was recommended, either. It takes another 6-8 weeks to get the results, so I'd rather get it done now. I just hope it will be enough and I won't have to try again and delay it even longer. Thanks for the recommendations and thoughtful responses, much appreciated. I will be following up with my GP soon to check for nutritional deficiencies while I'm waiting on the test results.

      thank you kind sir for replying to my post , it seems like a mine field at the moment, I gave him hard boiled eggs yesterday maybe that caused him to have a flair up today, I am feeling a bit overwhelmed at the moment, trying to keep him feeling better ,
