Gluten Free For 2 Or So Months

I've been gluten free for about 2 or so months I think now, and I haven't had any stomach aches from eating any foods while being gluten free so I don't think I've been glutened, I only believe this is true because i had a small sip of beer about a few weeks into being gluten free before i reset the time frame and 15 minutes later y stomach was killing me, uncontrollable bloating and turning of my stomach and instant trip onto the toilet. and i thought why did I get a sudden horrible, painful stomach ache so suddenly, then I realized what i did! well now its been 2 more months. I feel as if my hair feels fuller and well less thin. Not that I lost hair but it just feels way softer and has more volume, could it just be because of my recent haircut 2 weeks ago or could it be me being healthier? I also didn't go nuts on trying to bu a new toaster or anything for my gluten free waffles and different silverware or anything and have been fine as well. I've only gained 3 or so pounds since being on this diet, but hasn't went up a bit since. how long til I start gaining any weight, I'm 20 years old and am at 100 pounds, was just diagnosed before my birthday this past august. This diet is great for me and I do feel better but mentally I'm still pretty depressed about things including going out with friends and ordering a lame steak. I'm sick of rice, and Gluten free pasta haha. this life I'll never be used to, but I guess its the life I've been given, ill take it over feeling like crap.

is there anymore things that I should see if I notice that have improved since I've been on this diet? other than less back pain and more energy???

how did you feel, what did you notice?

      Worsening vision 🕵🏽‍♀️

      By trents · Posted

      Vitamin A is important for vision health. But be careful in supplementing it as it can lead to toxicity. Research it and consult with your medical professional. I do not have a definite answer to your original question but I was pursuing the possible cause of nutritional deficiency. But your visual deterioration could be unrelated to your celiac disease so don't rule that out.

      Currently 19. Doctors think I was 1 year old when celiac started, but I wasn't diagnosed until 18, because they didn't do lab work on minors. I've been on a strict gluten-free diet for 14 months now. For example only certified gluten-free nuts and I've researched best brands a lot. I take B vitamins, vitamin D, vitamin C, Curcumin with black pepper, black sesame and green tea extract, magnesium, iron, and a little selenium and zinc, beef liver capsules. I recently had my vitamin and mineral levels retested and D is the only one I don't have enough of now. I had my eyes tested at 17 and they were good back then.

      Awaiting dermatitis herpetiformis confirmation following biopsy

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Not everyone with dermatitis herpetiformis needs to avoid iodine. DH is caused by gluten exposure, but iodine can worsen or trigger flares in a subset of people, especially when the rash is active or not yet controlled by a strict gluten-free diet. Some people react to iodized salt, seaweed, shellfish, or iodine supplements, while others tolerate normal dietary iodine without problems. In most cases, iodine restriction is individualized and often temporary, not a lifelong rule for everyone.

      Questions: How old are you now? How long ago were you diagnosed as having celiac disease? Do you practice a strict gluten-free diet? Are you taking vitamin and mineral supplements to offset the nutrient malabsorption issues typical of celiac disease and if so, can you elaborate on what you are taking?

      My vision was good as a teen and now has gotten worse in the last year. Could that be caused by my celiac disease?🤓😎🥸👓🕶️
