    Thanks everyone, I really appreciate your thoughts! I know a great MD who is also naturpathic in the area - I'm hopeful that if I can get my ex onboard with taking her their for testing that he will start to understand the issues. The biggest hurdle will definitely be getting him on board so he doesn't undermine any diet we put her on. I dread the idea...

    My almost 33 month old daughter's doctor told her father today that he is concerned that she is malnourished. She hasn't gown at all in a year and she was only 25% to begin with - now 3%. Like any mother I am really scared. The doc said the likely cause is malnourishment but she eats - and not just junk food. She gets lots of fruits and eggs, beans, meats...

    Wow, I doubt that someone isn't addicted to something just because the withdrawal isn't going to kill them. Everyone's brain chemistry is slightly different and different people can become addicted to different things. Many people in my family are alcoholics, they cannot function without alcohol. My father had to be medicated when he detoxed because his liver...

    How freaky, you are having the exact same symptoms I have had for a long time. Please let me know if you learn anything new! My MD told me a few months ago that he thought the dizziness had something to do with a dumping syndrome where you stomach doesn't empty right causing too much blood to go to the stomach to aid digestion. I'm not sure if its right...

    I was diagnosed with Candida shortly after I first learned that I was gluten intolerant. Actually I asked my MD about that first and was told that candida was BS. By accident I found out about the wheat issue and going gluten-free cleaned up most of my troubles except fatigue, dizziness and sinus issues I decided to do the candida diet on my own after battling...

    I wonder sometimes if my husband and family are afraid to learm much about it because they feel then they would have to take it more seriously. I try to explain how serious it is but always give up because it just doesn't seem to get through. I've tried asking for them to read about it but they never care enough to get past the first few pages. They have...

    ARCHIVED Need Advice On Type Of Doctor

    nanafur posted a topic in Doctors

    I need to find a new doc but am totally confused as to what kind to start with and need some advice. I moved to a new area and have a BAD history with getting good help so I've been putting off finding a new doctor. I have been gluten free for about a year with super results, the issues I need help with are ongoing dizziness/lightheadedness, energy level...

    Wow, that is super interesting. I just posted on a "tell your story" thread that I got really sick when I first went gluten free. I mean really sick, extreme fatigue, dizzyness, heart palpitations, nausea and horrible shaking cold sweats. I ended up in the emergency room for dehydration and they told me they didn't know what it was. (the ER staff talked to...

Diagnosed with Irritable Bowel. Devleloped worsening allergy symptoms and multiple food allergies. Mid twenties muscle cramping and nerve pains began. I was a mess. My...

    Before I was diagnosed Gluten Intolerant I tried the Candida Diet from wholeapproach. I never felt better in my life. It was very hard and I only made it about 4 months but it was worth it. I made the assumption that was the whole of my problems and went back to eating gluten around the time of my wedding. Big PAINFUL mistake. Another upside is that after...

    Hi, I am new but wanted to respond to this older message because I have the same pain when not gluten-free. I found a wonderful book called The Triggerpoint Therapy Workbook. The massage that works best for me on this is to sit in a chair leaning forward with my arm loosly haning down... if you can press up allong the inside of the thick muscle at the...
