January Flower replied to amberleigh's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms

January Flower replied to Lisa's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease

ARCHIVED Teeth Grinding (bruxism)
January Flower replied to Charlieswpa's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
The truth is Celiac diease affects so many people differently that its hard to nail down direct links to the diease and dentistry. We do know that malabsorption is a huge factor in causing dental enamel abnormalities, as well as in people with vitamen Deficiencies. People with malformed enamel can be also caused by heredity traits, and if you were sick... -
ARCHIVED Teeth Grinding (bruxism)
January Flower replied to Charlieswpa's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I'm a dentist, and their are actually relations to teeth grinding and celiac diease. I would encourage you to see your dentist and have a night appliance made. I recommend them to my patients who have symptoms with their teeth grinding, i have never had any of my patients not like the appliances i've made. They help alot! -

ARCHIVED Last Two Months...what A Roller Coaster!
January Flower replied to January Flower's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Thanks...next time i'll go with the SKYY vodka. We had the Silent Sam vodka. i just really wanted to have a drink!! I'm not sure though, even before i was diagnosed it seems that hard alcohol always had a bad affect on me, just worse now! -
ARCHIVED Last Two Months...what A Roller Coaster!
January Flower posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I think after being diagnosed two months ago, i feel like i've experienced every symptom possible. My main problem has been D. The last few days i actually feel good, for the first time in months. I really think taking probiotics and eating alot of probiotic yogurt, cheese etc is helping. I was feeling so good i agreed to going out for a few drinks... -

ARCHIVED Major Bathroom Issuses
January Flower posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I got majorly glutened, i ate some pizza that was supposed to be safe. I felt fine for three days later and thought everything was fine until MAJOR D hit me at WORK! I've just been diagnosed a little over a month ago. As soon as i took out the gluten the FOUL smelling gas is gone, and my stools are actually formed! I was so happy. Is the foul smelling... -
ARCHIVED No More Dairy?
January Flower replied to January Flower's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Its usually takes at least 8 hours for me to react to anything. But i ate the pizza three days ago, and haven't had any problems usually but now i would have had massive D. I've had a couple normal bathroom visit since i ate it. I really think Dairy is my problem...i hope i finally figured it out!! i'm seeiing my Dr. on friday...they can do a blood... -
ARCHIVED Omg...i Might Be On To Something
January Flower replied to Rachel--24's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
About the mercury in your Teeth. I'm a dental assistant, and even though there is alot of talk about silver fillings, there has been alot of research to sugguest that the amount of mercury you have in your mouth isn't harmful. The truth is white fillings in most cases are used now, but they do seem to cause more sensitivity in patients, and have a higher... -
ARCHIVED No More Dairy?
January Flower replied to January Flower's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
The pizza had a bit of cheese on it not much. The last three times i had D it was after i ate, alot of iced cream, alot of chip dip, and cream cheese. I find that if i eat small portions of dairy all day i just have really bad smelling gas, but if i eat alot at once i usually end up with D. So its possible not to react to Dairy until the next day? -
I've been having having problems with gas/D...ever since i had the flu a few months ago. My doctor did a blood test and my IgG level was slightly raised so he told me to stop eating gluten. I have but lately i think Dairy is more my problem. I ate Pizza on the weekend, and felt great, if i had a problem with gluten wouldn't i have been sick? Lately...

ARCHIVED Interpreting Blood Test Results!
January Flower replied to January Flower's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I had the whole Celiac Screen done. And only my IgG was slightly raised. I had the test done becuase i kept getting D off and on. But eating gluten has helped a bit, but i think it might be a Lactose problem instead. I just ate some PIZZA last night after work, that was full of GLUTEN and i feel great! So what else could be wrong wtih me? I'm still... -

ARCHIVED Interpreting Blood Test Results!
January Flower posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
When i had my blood test done. The IgG was slightly raised. I know that this is an antibody level, but does it specifically relate to gluten? Or can it mean anything? Since it was raised could it be raised for any other reason? And what else would raise it? -
ARCHIVED What's The Difference? Need Help!
January Flower replied to January Flower's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I'm hoping my trip to the dietian will be helpful. I really am finding it hard to find a good doctor, like i said i've been to four already and none of them have been ANY help. I guess the biopsy would help, i just dont want to have to go through all these tests . -
ARCHIVED What's The Difference? Need Help!

My IgG Anti-Gliadin was raised. My results said a range between 0-11 is normal mine was 14. My IgA was normal. What does this mean? -
ARCHIVED What's The Difference? Need Help!
January Flower replied to January Flower's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I've been to four doctors already, its very frustrating because they all say different things. But three out of four said that since only one of the four antibody levels was slightly raised its more a gluten sensitivingy. I was told emilimating gluten from my diet for a year , i might be able to later reintroduce things back into my diet. Their is no history... -
ARCHIVED What's The Difference? Need Help!
January Flower posted a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I'm new to this whole thing. And my doctor told me that i dont have the full blown Celiac Disease but more of a gluten sensitivity (based on blood test results) My main symptom was the big D and that's why i went to the Dr. to figure things out. By not eating gluten i do feel better. Some days i feel great, others not the best. The D isn't bad, but... -

ARCHIVED What's Normal?
January Flower replied to January Flower's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease

I do think about it alot, everyday i wake up and think how bad will it be today?? Will i have the big D at work aggain?? Its hard. You really take for granted being able to eat whatever you want. It is normal that...
