Painful Pregnancies And Insufficient Milk And Not Diagnosed

I'm a mother of two children and have recently gone gluten-free after 17 years of misdiagnosis. INcluding a negative celiac disease blood test. after 3 days being gluten free all "IBS" symptoms went away and now after 2 months I see so many other symptoms disappearing only to reappear after accidental exposure. I'm wondering if my extreme pain during pregnancy was due to the gluten and if having an insufficient milk supply is also part of this? Any thoughts or comments are appreciated. I'm contemplating another pregnancy and wondering if I might enjoy it this time!

I think both issues are a total possible side effect of Celiac. Untreated Celiac disease can and does mess with hormones and all other functions of the body.

With my first three full term pregnancies I was horribly nauseated. I dry heaved and threw up a lot and it always lasted at least till 20 weeks if not several more. Even after the worst of it was over I still felt nauseous my whole pregnancy along with many other discomforts. I was pretty miserable.

Now I am 18 weeks pregnant and gluten free. I was only badly nauseated until about 14 weeks and now I am very mildly nauseous some days, but it is so much more manageable. I can't really say what else might get better for you, because I was not fully healed yet from untreated celiac when I got pregnant, but if you are feeling really good I think it's a good chance that you will feel much better with the next pregnancy if you keep gluten out of you diet.

      I was diagnosed with microscopic colitis and celiac a couple of years ago.  The GI doctor prescribed a course of budesonide, which moderately helped until I tapered off.    After a lot of ups and downs over the course of 2 years, I am finally in microscopic colitis remission.  Since I am also diabetic, I was started on metformin and Jardiance.  Metformin by itself helped moderately.  I added Jardiance and I was much better.  I stopped the metformin and relapsed and when I added it back, I regained remission.  I think metformin and Jardiance helped my colitis because they reduce inflammation in the gut.  Metformin is known to favorably modulate the gut microbiome and reduce...

      Hello, @Mrs Wolfe, I crushed three vertebrae moving a chest of drawers.  I take a combination of Thiamine Vitamin B1, Vitamin B12, and Pyridoxine B6.  Together these vitamins have an analgesic effect.  I think it works better than OTC pain relievers.   I also like  "Takeda ALINAMIN EX Plus Vitamin B1 B6 B12 Health Supplementary from Japan 120 Tablets" .   It's all three vitamins together in one pill.  Works wonderfully!

      It's the Potassium Iodide in the HRT pills that is triggering Dermatitis Herpetiformis and the increased IGG levels.   The thyroid is stimulated by the Potassium Iodide, which stimulates immune cells to make more IGG antibodies.   Thiamine Vitamin B1 helps the thyroid function.  I like Benfotiamine and TTFD Thiamax.
