Dairy/gluten-Free Withdrawl

I have been gluten free and dairy free (except for 1-2 small reactions) for 2 months now. I absolutely feel better. My stomach bloating, aching, itchy legs, tongue issues, constipation, gas has almost all improved 100%. However, I am having almost daily headaches and joint pain. ESPECIALLY MY SHOULDERS! My shoulders ache. Moreso at night time (when laying on them of course)I think it is from the dairy but I cannot be certain.

I'm wondering what withdrawal symptoms you guys are having, if any? and how long does it take to be free of these issues? (I can't even do shoulder exercises because they are so sore- sorry I'm a gym rat).

Also, what improvements have you all experienced since going gluten-free/DF? Even the small ones. Sometimes it is nice to read the good stuff that us healers can look forward to!

my main withdrawal symptoms were nausea, dizziness, and terrible terrible anxiety. I had constant pain in my ribs on the right side and could not sleep on my right side, it felt like my intestines were going to "spill" out of me, sorry for the TMI.

hand in there. it will get better, though the healing of your gut may take time if you have celiac damage...

Headaches and joint pain are reactions I have when I consume nightshades.(potatoes,peppers,chilies,tomatoes ,eggplant ect...)I was not able to isolate the cause until after I was gluten free for awhile.

Nightshades also effect my mood and temperament. I get really angry and mean. :ph34r:

Try eliminating nightshades for about 2 to 3 weeks and them reintroduce them and see if/how you react .

      Trying to read my lab results

      Hi Scott, yes I have had symptoms for years and this is the second GI I have seen and he could not believe I have never been tested. He called later today and I am scheduled for an endoscopy. Is there a way to tell how severe my potential celiac is from the results above? What are the chances I will have the biopsy and come back negative and we have to keep...

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      Why?

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.

      Why?

      What kind of stool test was done? Can you be more specific?

      Why?

      Perhaps I should also have said that in addition to showing a very high response to gluten, her stool study showed that she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that.
