Symptoms After Gluten Free For 2 Years


Golden Girl

Recommended Posts

Golden Girl Rookie

Can you still have symtoms after being gluten free for 2 years? And have different types of food allergies after 2 years? I am wondering if it isn't candida but the doctor doesn't think so. I am so tired and have trouble with wanting to cook after I get home from work. Does anyone have any ideas to help?

I have vitamin D deficiency. Maybe need to move to Golden Co.

Thanks for any ideas.

You need to get your Vit D levels up if they are low. Low D can cause fatigue and a host of other issues. Do you know what your levels are? Your Dr. can give you an Rx Vit D to get the levels up faster. I have gone through the low D and it ain't fun.

I have read many posts by people who became sensitive to lower gluten levels after they had been gluten free for a couple of years. It certainly happened to me. I did start taking D, but that isn't what helped my energy levels, it was cutting out more processed foods which helped the most. I started keeping a food diary and challenging everything. After a long while I managed to get a diet which works for me.

I still don't have other food allergies. I just have to really watch my sources. I can tolerate dairy only from one farmer, only eggs from another, only chicken from another. Fortunately for me these farmers all work together so it is one stop at the farmer's market. They don't feed their animals gluten grains. That seems to make the difference for me.

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.

      While it's always important to approach internal use of essential oils with caution and ideally under the guidance of a qualified professional, your experience highlights the potential of complementary approaches when traditional medicine falls short. Many in the community are also interested in the intersection of natural wellness and gluten-free living, particularly for managing systemic inflammation and its various symptoms, so sharing your story is valuable. Your observation that it may also be helping with bloating is fascinating, as that could point to an overall reduction in inflammation. Thank you for sharing what is working for you!
