    As a result of undiagnosed Coeliac Disease I have Hashimoto's Disease ( thyroid disease) arthritis scoliosis osteoporosis chronic pain tooth decay as well as a myriad of other problems including Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D deficiency I honestly can't believe you aren't taking this seriously

    Diagnosed 2 years ago at age 59............ but had had problems most of my life, I'm guessing I have had Coeliac Disease since I was about 12 although my late mother (she died before I was diagnosed) told me I had problems even earlier than that, even as a baby I had a swollen distended stomach......ding,ding anyone ? I also suspect my mother was an undiagnosed...

    TSH too high............. the range for TSH is now 0.3-3.00 has been for a few years. Anything over 2.00 is worthy of investigation. People w/o thyroid disease have a TSH around 1.50 Free T3 far too low barely above the bottom of the range Free T4 too low as well.It's a storage hormone that converts to FT3 It's an idea to have antibodies done for Hashimoto...

    With thyroid problems you need FREE T3 and FREE T4 along with TSH. Also TgAb and TPO antibodies for Hashimoto's Disease Normal is a cycle on a washing machine. A TSH over 2.00 is usually an indicator things aren't right FT3 in the top 1/3 of the range is where people feel well, in fact a lot of people feel well with it at the top of the range, FT4...

    I was never tested for anything, told I had "eczema" was sure now it was DH, this was early '60's, late '60's told I had "mucous colitis" had had problems from the late'50's , then a few years later "IBS" then this stuck for the next umpteen years until I had an endoscopy/colonoscoy in 2007 because I was anaemic and a bowel screening showed blood in both...

    In Australia gluten must be <5 ppm to qualify as gluten free (but must still be stated on the label)

    Welcome ! Yes I agree about the Nobel Prize I've often said that LOL I make my own bread using the Sunbeam Quantum bread maker and use Laucke's gluten free bread mix, available in most supermarkets I also have Hashimoto's Disease/hypothyroidism

    Quite possibly. I've had crappy teeth my entire life it's been a nightmare especially in childhood when treatment was more barbaric than it is now....... *shudder* Always had dentists "telling me off" because I wasn't looking after my teeth would get sooooooooo frustrated because I knew I was !
  9. nutralady2001
    Oh OK thanks for that............ have seen a couple of numbers tossed around and was a little confused

    Also here to be labelled gluten-free the product must contain <5 ppm gluten (although I'm a zero gluten girl) Not sure of the ratio in the USA but think it's <200 ppm

    I started having problems as a child in the '50's. By the time I was in college in the last '60's I was diagnosed with "mucous colitis" I was so sick my last year I couldn't get permanency my first year teaching and had to have another medical at the end of it before they granted me permanent status. Fast forward a few years and I was given the "IBS" tag...

    Probably not year after year of presenting with symptoms and not one of them suggested any diagnostic testing .Even my diagnosis was "accidental" as I had the scopes because I was severely anaemic and a bowel screening showed blood in both upper and lower GI tracts
  13. nutralady2001
    Australia has the strictest guidelines in the world I believe. To qualify as gluten free a food must have less than 5 ppm gluten I'm not excited sorry....................... another vaccine pumped in to the body and it will be years before it comes to fruition. Much easier to stay gluten free
  14. nutralady2001
    Welcome ! I was misdiagnosed for over 47 years, probably close to 50, firstly with "mucous colitis" then "IBS" can't get those years back but wish I could go to all the doctors I've seen and wave the test results under their noses
  15. nutralady2001
    I have absolutely no problems getting copies of all my tests, one click of the mouse and it's done !

    Welcome teemaree If you join the Coeliac Society you will get a little blue book listing gluten-free ingredients you can take shopping with you.Read all labels Be aware that although glucose syrup/caramel colouring etc from wheat is deemed "gluten free" by processing there are people like myself who still react I need zero gluten Most pasta sauces...

    I have Hashi's She is decreasing your dose based on what?................the TSH? It's the most common mistake doctors make With Hashi's the aim is to suppress the TSH to reduce the antibodies attack. My TSH has been <0.01 for about 10 years What you need to do is look at your Free T3 and Free T4 and where they are in the range, do you have those...
