Great Stress Reliever When You Are Healing

One of my friends that I met on this very board brought some stress relieving celiac disease's to me a couple of days ago and they have been so helpful. I had to share here because especially if you are new to celiac and you are very stressed these can help.

It's called Metamusic using Hemi-Sync technology. I don't really understand the science behind it, but I had heard of it for autistic kids when I was a teacher. Something about the way they arrange the sound affects your brainwaves and can relax you and enable you to focus. I wish I'd had it when I was going through gluten withdrawals and I had such brain fog.

Here's their website. Open Original Shared Link

I also found their celiac disease's under Monroe Products on that big shopping site that is unmentionable and they were cheaper there. They aren't too expensive anyway and I highly recommend them.

This is really interesting stuff. I used something similar with my first pregnancy for morning sickness. It didn't cure it but made it manageable. I have to say though that after the sickness left I couldn't listen to the track any more - it made me nauseous!!! :P

LOL! There are some foods I can't eat because they remind me of being sick.

I recently took great pleasure in breaking the two cee dee's (every time I type the letters c and d it turns it into celiac disease!!!!) I used during my 3-day labor, and tossing them in the trash. Couldn't even look at them without my back hurting.

I do have "Binaural Beats" on my phone...some are very soothing, others are like fingernails down a chalkboard.

These ones just sound like regular music. I don't hear any weird sounds on them although I read that some have like a static sound in the background but the ones I have don't have that sound. I wish I understood the science behind it, but apparently it's been researched a lot, especially with ADHD, autism, etc.

One of the things with having Cushings now is that the high cortisol in my system makes me anxious. This music calms that anxiety right down and it's been a lifesaver.

I don't really hear anything when I listen to the binaural beats (other than music) but some of them agitate me, others soothe me - and not necessarily the ones that are named "soothing". I guess it's effective - but I have noticed i sometimes don't like what is prescribed for the problem - some of the relaxation ones make me climb the wall.

I haven't tried any of the CDs made specifically for anxiety, but when I was really sick from gluten last year (missed more than a week of class, lots of pointless doctor appointments and tests, could only eat small amounts of rice and water, lots of time spent curled up in a ball in bed) I had my ear buds in for most of the day and night. Jack Johnson's voice is soothing enough to mellow me out and take my focus away from food and pain. I listened to his 'To the Sea' album so many times though that now it makes me anxious-- that's not bedtime music anymore. I have a playlist for every mood, situation, type of pain; I always thought iTunes was overrated but it has kept me sane.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      I was undiagnosed for decades. My ferritin when checked in 2003 was 3. It never went above 10 in the next 20 years. I was just told to "take iron". I finally requested the TTgIgA test in 2023 when I was well and truly done with the chronic fatigue and feeling awful. My numbers were off the charts on the whole panel. they offered me an endoscopic biopsy ...

      Is it gluten?

      Scott, I agree with everything you said except the term "false negative". It should be a "true negative" just plain negative. I actually looked up true/false negative/positive as it pertains to testing. The term "false negative" would be correct if you are positive (have anti-bodies) and the test did not pick them up. That would be a problem with the "test...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      Been off this forum for years. Is it that important that you get an official diagnosis of something? It appears like you had a trigger (wheat, gluten, whatever) and removing it has resolved your symptom. I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free...

      I have had a long year of testing unfortunately still not diagnosed , although one thing they definitely agree I'm gluten intolerant, the thing for me I have severe back troubles they wouldnt perform the tests and I couldn't have a full MRI because I'm allergic to the solution , we tryed believe me  I tryed lol , another was to have another blood test after consuming gluten but it makes me so bad I tryed it for only a week, and because I have a trapped sciatic nerve when I get bad bowels it sets that off terribly so I just take it on myself now , I eat a gluten free diet , I'm the best I've ever been , and if I slip I know it so for me i have my own diagnosis  and I act accordingly, sometimes it's not so straight forward for some of us , for the first time in years I can plan to go out , and I have been absorbing my food better , running to the toilet has become occasionally now instead of all the time , i hope you find a solution 🤗

      I was undiagnosed for decades. My ferritin when checked in 2003 was 3. It never went above 10 in the next 20 years. I was just told to "take iron". I finally requested the TTgIgA test in 2023 when I was well and truly done with the chronic fatigue and feeling awful. My numbers were off the charts on the whole panel.  they offered me an endoscopic biopsy 3 months later, but that i would need to continue eating gluten for it to be accurate. so i quit eating gluten and my intestine had healed by the time i had the biopsy (i'm guessing??). Why else would my TTgIgA be so high if not celiacs? Anyway, your ferritin will rise as your intestine heals and take HEME iron (brand 4 arrows). I took 20mg of this with vitamin c and lactoferrin and my ferritin went up, now sits around 35.  you will feel dramatically better getting your ferritin up, and you can do it orally with the right supplements. I wouldn't get an infusion, you will get as good or better results taking heme iron/vc/lf.

I actually looked up true/false negative/positive as it pertains to testing. The term "false negative" would be correct if you are positive (have anti-bodies) and the test did not pick them up. That would be a problem with the "test" itself. If you were gluten-free and got tested, you more than likely would test "true" negative or just negative. This means that the gluten-free diet is working and no anti-bodies should be present. I know it sounds confusing and if you don't agree feel free to respond.

Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have 4 kids, and I really want to know. If I really do have it then they may have increased risk.

I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools.
