Strange question for a gluten free/ wheat free site..

If you are celiac or gluten intolerant just stop eating wheat.

If you are neither of the above but you find wheat bothers your toes , same outcome stop eating the poison.....

My son gets bone and joint pain from it, often involving his toes.

I'm doing a gluten challenge and have noticed my stiff hands and big toe pain has come back. I'm not sure if it's the gluten or something else, though.

I have celiac and had for a while just found out last year My problem is my feet twitch and keep me up, i put a heat pad on feet to help,i try to stay on the diet, is there any relief from that,any thing you can take?

You need to be gluten free and not cheet. You very well may not get the relief you are wanting as long as you are consuming gluten.

When I get CC'd I can get bone, joint, and muscle pain. I haven't found anything that helps. Though when it makes my carple tunnel flare, I use a brace and ice my wrists.

Yes, they do.

There are many gluten-free foods that will likely help. :)

I've been having lots of issues with my feet the past 2-3 months and I'm hoping hoping hoping that it may be related to gluten. I'm gluten-free 9 days now...

Thanks for letting us know you do have a real gluten problem... It was hard to be sure with the first post...gluten effects everyone in different ways.. In ten years I've been glutened once, yes, it is hard being so careful & never letting your guard down but to remain 100% is the price we pay for good health.. works for me...

I always have a stash of gluten-free goodies everywhere I go so I'm not tempted to stop at a fast food joint. Every party I attend I take gluten-free food, I don't let this disease win , I control it so it doesn't raise its nasty head & put me down... You be in control.........

Prior to being gluten free, by the end of the day, my feet used to hurt and get this burning sensation. My lower back also used to be so stiff in the morning I had to roll out of bed because I could not sit up. Gluten free 2mo now.

I get pain in my bones also when glutened. For me it usually hits the knees,ankles and hands which were the areas where my arthritis was the worst on gluten. I think it has something to do with inflammation and for me plain asprin helps the most.

Have you tried an epson salts foot bath... along with the asprin...I have constant pain in my back from a tear in my spinal column from an accident. I on some days can't move very well & I take a soak in the epson salts & it takes the edge off...heat makes me swell more so I have also used ice...

Foot massage?

      Insomnia help

      One thing to keep in mind is that it's pretty safe to take a B-complex since B vitamins are water soluble. You just pee out any excess.

      Insomnia help

      Hi @hjayne19 It sounds as if your insomnia is closely linked to your anxiety. I had awful anxiety at diagnosis, and that feeling of doom that you describe. My other symptoms were racing thoughts, and a tangible sensation of a weight bearing down on my shoulders, even if I was feeling perfectly well and happy - it would just hit me. I then got a phobia...

      Hi @hjayne19 It sounds as if your insomnia is closely linked to your anxiety.  I had awful anxiety at diagnosis, and that feeling of doom that you describe.   My other symptoms were racing thoughts, and a tangible sensation of a weight bearing down on my shoulders, even if I was feeling perfectly well and happy - it would just hit me.  I then got a phobia to make things worse, linked to the fact that I had was suffering hypnopompic hallucinations (brief hallucinations on waking).  That was weird but I later learned they aren't all that uncommon, especially with people who suffer from aura migraines.   In fact I felt so unwell that I didn't even recognise it as 'anxiety'.  I remember googling my various symptoms and it was only that that  made me realise I was suffering from anxiety, which was nothing like 'feeling a bit nervous before taking an exam' or , say, making a speech.  This was a whole new ball game. As I came off gluten and healed, the anxiety started to get less and less.  It is not uncommon for coeliacs to have anxiety on diagnosis, so I hope that is reassuring to you.   And deficiencies can make it worse, or cause it, so are definitely worth investigating in further depth if you can.   There is certainly a big difference between 'normal' levels and 'optimum', as @trents says, and this excerpt from a British website and explains how with B12,, for example,  a normal level in one person can represent a deficiency in another: In the UK, normal B12 levels vary slightly by lab but generally, above 200 ng/L is considered sufficient, 100-145 ng/L indicates possible deficiency, and below 100 ng/L suggests likely deficiency, though levels between 146-200 ng/L may still warrant treatment if symptoms are present, as per North Bristol NHS Trust and NICE guidelines In fact, I understand levels are set much higher in other countries, such as Japan.  When I started to supplement B12 with high dose sublinguals I began to feel better, even though at diagnosis my levels were considered 'low normal'.    I too had a lot of muscle twitching which was likely due to deficiencies, but of course if someone has a lot of adrenaline in their system it will only make twitching worse.  I remember reading on this forum one should take magnesium tablets, and it did really help.  As a sportsperson you might like to try throwing a good handful of Epsom salts into a lukewarm bath, and have a soak for 20 mins, as it can be absorbed through the skin.  But be careful as you leave the bath, it can make you woozy! Lastly, to address the anxiety,  I found Dr Steve Llardi's book, albeit on Depression, incredibly helpful.  The Depression Cure: The Six Step Programme to Beat Depression Without Drugs.    Dr Llardi outlines a step-by-step plan for recovery from depression, which focuses on six key lifestyle elements that have largely disappeared in healthy doses from modern life:  physical exercise,  omega-3 fatty acids,  natural sunlight exposure,  restorative sleep,  social connectedness, and meaningful, engaging activity.    The other book (and there is a website) which helped me understand anxiety and recover is Paul David's, At Last a Life, written by a one-time sufferer.  I live in the UK and if I could award a knighthood to anyone in this country, it would be to Paul.  I am so grateful that these books crossed my path.   Anyway, sorry for the length of this post.  I hope something might be of help.

I have a follow up appointment soon so will look into those other B vitamin levels.

      When you say "vitamin B" was normal? Which vitamin B are you referring to? Typically, physicians will only check for B12 deficiency because it can connect to iron deficiency via something called "pernicious anemia". But all the B vitamins work together in a synergistic fashion. That's why we recommend a high potency B-complex. And D3 is turning out to be much more important than we ever realized. In many ways, it is a "master vitamin". And in the modern world where we spend much more time indoors than our ancestors did, we often don't get enough of it, especially if we live in northern latitudes. And it's also true that "normal" levels may not be the same as optimum levels.  Ferritin is an iron storage protein. The body can rob from storage in order to maintain immediate blood levels of iron so, yes, ferritin can take longer to rebuild than hemoglobin counts. Your ferritin levels are low end of normal.
