Does This Sound Like Celiac Disease To You?

Recommended Posts

justcrash Newbie

For my entire life (I'm a 37 year old male) I can recall I have had

the following symptoms:

Constant exhaustion (ready for bed 2 hours after I get up)

Constant, deep depression

Unable to think clearly

No energy

Unable to lose weight no matter how much I exercise or change my eating habits

Dark circles under my eyes

Stuffy nose, I thought may have been stress triggered

Horrible constipation, but NEEDING to rush to the bathroom 8-9 times a

day to only produce air (sorry, gross, I know, this started when I started my CPAP treatment in 2006 and have been 100% compliant)

Painful cramps and stomach bloating

Always hungry. Always. Cannot eat enough.

Ice pick migraines and constant low, buzzing head aches.

Sick a lot

Have trouble functioning at night outside, hard to drive, it's like I

get confused or something.

Nothing I have ever tried, whether it's CPAP, mood stabilizers, anti

depressants, intense exercise, eating healthier, etc has worked. To

the point I am disgusted with the medical community and off and on

suicidal.

Been diagnosed with: bipolar, Apnea, MS, areophagia and hypoglycemia.

Does it sound like celiac? I've started cutting glutten and soy out

and minimizing dairy. I keep accidentally dosing myself, but Ive been

trying since Sunday and don't see a lot of change yet. :(

Welcome to the forum justcrash.

Yes, it sounds like you could have celiac or a gluten intolerance. Have you had a blood tests for celiac yet? If you want to have them done you need to still be eating gluten.

Some people start feeling better after a few days or weeks and sometimes it will take a few months.

      Seems like when I find a gluten free product I like, the producer stops manufacturing it and then I have trouble finding a new gluten free source for it.  What's worse, I've been contacting companies to ask if their products are gluten free and they don't even bother to respond.  So, it's making it very hard to find safe replacements.  I was buying teff flour at nuts.com and they no longer carry it.  I noticed Naturevibe has teff and soy flour.  However, I can't get a response as to whether their flours are safe for someone with celiac.  Can't get a response from Aldi if their peas are safe for someone with celiac either.  I know Bob's Red Mill has teff flour but was hoping to get a large quantity.  I've been using up the 20 ounce Bob's Red Mill teff flour too quickly.  Does anyone know of a good source for teff or soy flour?  Any recommendations where to get gluten free beans, peas or lentils?  I found some packages of gluten free beans at Sprouts but not much variety.  I've also been looking for lentil elbow macaroni and it seems like no one is making that now that Tolerant was bought out.  Any suggestions for safe sources for these types of ingredients.  Thanks.

      From their website I see "organic barley leaf powder" as an ingredient. Keep in mind that the gluten is in the kernel, and not in the leaves. https://drinkag1.com/about-ag1/ingredients/ctr

      Before the rise of social media we were well known by a lot of doctors and were recommended by many, especially our Safe & Forbidden Lists, but as doctors get younger and younger this is probably not happening as much as before.

      Thanks Scott I will definitely check my vitamins and minerals to see what I am missing so then I can supplement. I was very concern about my Meniers syntoms and i tryed to find some alive. Now im just realizing that my celiac is provably the root cause of my Meniers none of the 12 doctors I saw told me anything about this.  This web site is so helpful, thanks to people like you we can get answers.
