Itching Finally Under Control

Well, it has been six months (minus a week) that I've been off gluten and only now am I really starting to get rid of the bi-products of the constant barrage my gut had from gluten. The itching was the most annoying problem. All over itching and a sense that every time I ate I had a reaction. That has calmed down this cycle somehow. I still get a bit of liver pain but the itching is much much less. Crossed fingers that it lasts!

Also, I have my first proper cold for the first time. This is a good sign, as if you are being attacked by bugs apparently you want a proper 'washing out' of the bug with runny nose and phlegm. If you only get half a reaction then the bug is still waiting inside, having a party and getting ready to have another go at you. I've also had one episode of D, thinking that it might have been a glutening, but I think it was again another symptom of 'washing out' or clearing. The follow up herbal clinic meeting I had was very positive but my adrenals are still very low, not just from the gluten issue, but from the crazy work schedule I've been on for the last four months. Another good sign is that if I get upset I can actually cry, whereas before I just didn't have the energy to react to anything!

Anyone else getting a cleariing effect six months after kicking gluten?

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
