The winner was.....CAT LITER!!! It's not even my cat, i am holding him for my brother because he poops in his house and his kids eat it....i am going to see him at Christmas and find out if he ever plans on taking the cat back...otherwise he's going to a new home. He doesn't poop all over my house...why??? because i shovel out his cat liter every day..sometimes twice...no wonder it crept up on me like it did....anyway, changed the liter brand...back to my old self!

***to all cat lovers, sorry, i am just not a cat lover...i do love my brother, and would do most anything to help him...but keep the cat!

Congrats on finding out what the problem was!

Just so we know to avoid it, too - what was the cat litter brand that got you?

I was using Tidy Cat...I don't know if there is wheat in it or not...but that is the only new thing in my life besides the peanut butter, i have still been eating the peanut butter...no problems..i stopped the cat liter for 3 days, felt better, tried it on the 5th day for a test, sick again on the 6th day....stopped using it completely...feel fine

I can't speak to Tidy Cat. I know nothing about it.

I operate a retail store that sells pet foods and supplies, including cat litter. The only litter in our store that contains gluten is Swheat Scoop--it is made from wheat. I have heard of a litter that is made from rye, but as far as I know it is not yet available in Canada.

For our own three cats at home, we use Open Original Shared Link. It is made from corn, is gluten-free, and is flushable. It is made by Open Original Shared Link of Muscatine, Iowa. They make many other products from corn, including corn oil and vodka (under contract with brands you would recognize).

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      You have an odd story there. To me, the mechanical trigger suggests a mechanical problem and lower leg pain is a classic sciatica symptom. The fact that the clear mechanical linkage is no longer there does not take away from the fact that it was - maybe something shifted and the simple alignment is no longer there. There's also a good chance I am wrong and...

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      Oddly this effect has gone now, just happened yesterday evening, the nerve pain is now back to its usual "unpredictable" random self again - but that was the only time I ever had some mechanical trigger for it, don't know why! There's no (or wasn't) actual pain in my neck - it was inside the leg, but when I looked down, now though, the leg pain just comes...

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      I had MRI scan a few years ago showing everything normal, and now it's no longer triggering the nerve pain when I bow my head today - it only seemed to happen yesterday, and that was the only time it happened! Just seemed weird as no movement has caused my usual nerve pain before. It's normally just random.

      COVID-19 a Possible Trigger for Celiac Disease in Those with Genetic Risk

      This hypothesis certainly lines up with my experience. Avoided getting Covid until August 2022. Celiac diagnosis three months later, and they think they caught it early (not a ton of damage in my EGD). I'd suspected the connection before, so it's nice to see researchers are interested in this question.

      Fusilli Pizzeria, Miller Place, NY

      Very good pizzeria with small dining room in back of the restaurant. The owner's daughter has celiac & they have gluten free pizza & a gluten free menu. Some items from the regular menu can be made gluten free also. They have a lunch menu which we ordered from & my chicken with spinach & mozzarella over gluten-free penne was delicious...

The fact that the clear mechanical linkage is no longer there does not take away from the fact that it was - maybe something shifted and the simple alignment is no longer there. There's also a good chance I am wrong and it's something else entirely. @Scott Adams's mention of shingles is interesting. It seems possible but unlikely to me, but who knows. However, I am writing here to reinforce the idea of getting the shingles vaccine. Ask anyone who has ever had shingles and they will bend your ear telling you how bad it is. I watched my wife go through it and it scared the bejeebers out of me. Even if you had the chicken pox vaccine, you really want to get the shingles vaccine.

      Celiac flare years after diagnosis

      By nancydrewandtheceliacclue · Posted

      @Aretaeus Cappadocia and @Russ H thank you both for your helpful advice and information. I haven't seen a GI in years. They never helped me aside from my inital diagnosis. All other help has come from my own research, which is why I came here. I will be even more careful in the future.
