Untested Severe Symtoms

I am 27 and up till mid 2007 I was actually really healthy, this is when everything went wrong all the sudden 1 day had severe diarrhea, and milk seemed to really make the diarrhea worse.. so basically i went from almost never using the toilet at work for years to having diarrhea after every meal :(... I also began to get hot pretty easy and i remember in the summer i actually turned the AC on colder temp against my bosses word... During these days at work i was eating wheat bread at subway bout everyday with cheese, which i soon cut out the cheese, cause my reaction to milk from mc d's in morns... I ended up quitting in Jan 2008 and ive been droppin weight slowly since, with a high heart rate...

For awhile i thought the diarrhea was a lactose prob or stress, so i cut out cheese since then but been eating everything else and also smoking weed from my chronic pain i have (for a birth bone deformity). I recently quit any type of drug in order to take my online poker to the next level since its the only way ive been makin money lately, and Ive really noticed i have a severe problem and im sure which has been part of the reason i ended up in ER panicking.. The third time in the ER 1 doc actually gave me alot more time as far as talking to me i think he actually wanted to truly help me as the others were only worried about my possibly dieing at the moment, and sent me out, he mentioned he next time you see your doctor have him test you for "CELIAC DISEASE",

Since then i have been on trader joes diet gluten free for about 7 days now, and I have no blood test for celiac.. But my stools seem to be little nicer then I have seen in like 4 years, but i still been consuming lactaid milk and some think thin bars that contain soy and milk and i get gas from them, so i guess my next step is removing all dairy?

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      By cristiana · Posted

      Thank you for the update @Rejoicephd it is good to know that you may have some answers.  Keep up the good work with your diet, and do let us know if you do get a firm diagnosis.  I took so long to feel better and for my TTG levels to normalise,  but got there in the end, so also bear in mind it does take longer for some of us.

      Gluten Sensitivity

      By StuartJ · Posted

      Well, three months later and a startling revelation!  After going gluten free (and nearly bankrupt buying special foods), my wife made a lunch of meat potatoes and gravy made with Bertolli white sauce - no wheat there right?  Big flare up withing hours and I was really wiped out with it.  She rechecks the label on the sauce bottle and right at the bottom of the ingredients XANTHAN GUM. There's our #1 suspect again!  So by way of experimenting, she decided to try making a loaf of bread with just regular white flour like she used to do and see what happened; the familiar smell hit me when I walked in the door last night and I sat down to eat this still warm, fresh goodness - I thought even if I have to take Imodium sandwiches, it will be worth it 😋 No ill effects, either overnight or today!  Half the loaf is now gone because I had some for supper, saving just one last slice for breakfast in the morning` - I've used the bathroom once and that was normal, so maybe it is not the gluten after all? Can't wait to try a beer! 😁

      Could this be a new intolerance

      By trents · Posted

      Unfortunately, the development of celiac disease usually is not an end in and of itself. It usually brings along friends, given time. It is at heart an immune system dysfunction which often embraces other immune system dysfunctions as time goes on.

      Thanks so much for the responses. I will urge him to go for further investigation. To be 48yrs old and develop a new allergy.. ugh, As if celiac disease isn’t enough!

      This does not seem to be an anaphylactic response but I agree it would be wise to seek allergy-food sensitivity testing. You might look into ALCAT food sensitivity testing.
