Feel Awkard With Lifestyle Changes

;) I know the difference from be glutened and be on gluten-free diet. I hasnt been tested yet but feel whole better by just not eat anything that have gluten in.

I am depressing, feel bit emotional, out of blue stressing, and mind are overwhelmed with lot of things to think and things to do.

I just feel overwhelmed with the changes in my diet and lifestyle. I found myself decline my family and friends on go out to restuarants lately... I even bought few things that are gluten free and I has been try to keep up with my diet. i has to jump back on gluten diet in order to keep my body to act like i am still sick and still hasnt figure what is going on with me...

Changes does not agree with my family very well. They once has to adjust to that I cannot eat tomato based foods and they still eat foods in front of me. It made me want some so badly that I end up break up in hives when i was youngster. So, you can see that they cant really make a adjustment for individual very well. :(

I guess my family sometimes can be self-centered in their own ways and dont like to make the adjustments which are not fair to them instead of thinking of me as individually. they are very lucky that nobody in family are allergic to peanuts since my family are nut about the peanuts. So, Do you see what I am trying to explain the experience? <_<

If I ever find out that I am gluten intolerant or have celiac. Oh boy, I will have to find my way around the cranks, cracks, and holes around my family to be more consider of me by not Cross comdinations in their kitchen since I am still living with my parents during time I am seearching for job.

lot of mumbling over this long thought I have on my mind for a bit time. :huh:

It might be a good idea for you to get tested? You will have to eat gluten every day for a while for the test to work.

If the test shows you are Celiac or gluten intolerant, maybe your family will take it more seriously? Just telling them that you *think* gluten bothers you will not make them be as careful.

I know it's hard when your family doesn't seem to try to be careful, or consider they might be contaminating things with gluten. You will have to look out for yourself and insist that you cannot eat any bit of gluten, not even a trace if you can't tolerate it.

Try to eat mostly fruit, veggies, plain meat, and eggs. Eat dairy products only if they don't bother you.

Good luck to you. I know it's hard to figure out what's making you feel bad, and even harder to get your family to help you.

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50. US 2024 - Increased Risk of Herpes Zoster Infection in Patients with Celiac Disease 50 Years Old and Older Sweden 2018 - Increased risk of herpes zoster in patients with coeliac disease - nationwide cohort study

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.

      You might try Heallix.  It's a silver solution with fulvic acid. I just put the solution on with a cotton ball.  It seemed to stop the nerve pain. Again,  not in your eyes or ears.   Go to heallix.com to read more about it and decide for yourself Also,  I do think nerve and celiac combined have a lot to do with your susceptibility to shingles breaking out.

      Celiac disease requires both genetic potential and a triggering stress event to activate the genes. Otherwise it remains dormant and only a potential problem. So having the genetic potential is not deterministic for celiac disease. Many more people have the genes than actually develop the disease. But if you don't have the genes, the symptoms are likely being caused by something else.

      Yes, i pulled raw ancetry data and saw i have 2/3 markers for DQ2.2 but have heard from friends in genetics that this raw data can be wildly innacurate
