ARCHIVED Help, Is My Girlfriend Having Celiac Disease
jewi0008 replied to jf.houde's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Kbtoyssni- You said that a symptom is eye twitches? Really? I have never heard that but my eyes for the past several months have NOT STOPPED twitching! It drives me crazy! I feel as though I've had something wrong with me since I developed a rash around my nose when I was about 12 years old. I wonder if the eye twitching is a latent symptom from years and... -
Well...I already got my blood tests, BUT the colonoscopy and that stuff isn't until Feb. 26th BUT when I talked to the Dr today he said that because I got the blood tests done I can go back to a gluten-free diet. Is this not correct?!? No, I do not still get the rash. Around that time in my life I started also getting the painful cracks in the corners...

Speaking of being a "Newbie," I may "officially be a "Newbie" pretty soon. I've been miserable for many years, too...since I was little. Yesterday, finally, I went to a GI for the FIRST TIME EVER. I'm now 25. They are testing me for: Chrons, Celiac and Colitis. Is this normal...does anyone know? Also, I got some old medical records in the mail from when...

ARCHIVED Crazy Hunger, Need For Food
jewi0008 replied to radgirl's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
And do you know...if I'm taking the B Supp right now and they tested my B levels, would they still find I'm deficient? I don't want to mess anything up. I KNOW there is something to be said about the B Vit for me because I'm still eating like crap and taking this supp is the only thing I've added and/or changed and it has already made a HUGE difference. -
ARCHIVED Crazy Hunger, Need For Food
jewi0008 replied to radgirl's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
The B complex is VERY interesting to me. I'm eating a lot of wheat/gluten right now so that I can get tested. I have a GI appt on Thursday to see their thoughts. Anyways, been miserable with my stomach, starved and all oral tissues chronically annoyed. I got back on my B Complex last Thursday...I have been significantly better since Saturday? I have a really... -
ARCHIVED Constipation...

I'm so bloated and constipated...my stomach feels huge! What, besides dairy, does everyone do to push it through? I'm going insane! -
ARCHIVED Teeth
jewi0008 replied to jewi0008's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Ok, so if you have tooth enamel problems, is this what causes the sensitivities? Or what function does the enamel serve? Sorry this is problem such a stupid question, but I honestly don't know! I've been told I am probably nutrient deficient because of my burning mouth and sore internal oral tissues. -
ARCHIVED Teeth
jewi0008 replied to jewi0008's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
It's not fun at all! I was detoxing and my teeth felt fine. Now I've really upped my wheat/gluten usage per day because I'm going to get my Iga and IGg levels checked in less than a month. Since then, teeth in pain. They hurt so bad that they give me a "referred pain" to my tongue. So irritating. I wonder about that acid reflux. I burp a lot, but I don... -
Help! My teeth are so sensitive and are killing me right now. They are making my whole mouth hurt and chewing gum makes it worse. Does anyone else have problems with their teeth/gums?

Are your stomach problems your only symptom?

ARCHIVED Omg I Am In So Much Pain Right Now!
jewi0008 replied to blondebombshell's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I'm just wondering if it's making your back hurt, too...and like you want to curl up in a small ball? I've been having a TON of lower left ab pain lately, too. I'm going to get tested in one month. A few months ago I had that pain, spread to my back. I thought I had an ovary cyst...ended up going in immediately. After the ultra sounds, NOTHING. Hmmm??? Celiac... -
I've been "cheating" on my gluten free diet for several months...I've attempted to go gluten free. The past month I have been gluten free. Now, I'm not. I'm miserable and will be finally getting my blood test for Celiac. My Dr said that a solid 4 weeks of consuming gluten will be good enough to then have the test show accurate results. Is this corrrect...

ARCHIVED Someone Please Help Me!
jewi0008 posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Can someone help me understand this: My Dr ordered me IGG and IGA blood tests. But before I got the tests done, I switched jobs. Now, starting Feb 1 I finally have insurance again and can get the tests. I am currently an "unconfimred Celiac." BUT, here is what has been going on. All of Christmas I was eating normally....wheat, gluten, anything! There... -
Can anyone please help to explain to me: 1. What are enterolab tests? 2. What is an IgA test? 3. If I'm not currently consuming wheat/gluten/sugar/dairy/soy/alcohol/caffeine, can I get a certain blood test(s) to help me determine what my body is intolerant to? Thanks!

I may have it; been trying to figure it out. My mouth is always irritated. Like the sides of my tongue and the sides of the roof of my mouth, but I can't pinpoint what it is? It's so irritating. There is nothing in my mouth or on my tongue or anywhere to be found, but it's a chronic irritation. I don't know if this is OAS?
-
Interesting. I don't have mine either. My Junior year of college was just plain awful. infection after infection...chronically ill. I had them out. Then I started to develop all sorts of oral problems. And while I never get sick, my throat, too, will hurt and burn.

I'm curious...do you still have your tonsils? Or anyone else out there with this sore throat problem..do any of you still have tonsils?

ARCHIVED Honey Roasted Peanut Butter
jewi0008 posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Question...maybe someone could help me with: So at the Safeway Grocery Store there is a Nut Bar. At the Nut Bar, you can grind your own peanut butter. So we got honey roasted peanut butter. I had some the other night. The day after I felt so crummy. Achy, no energy, mouth starting to annoy me again...foggy head. Does anyone know if there is gluten in... -
ARCHIVED Trying To Identify The Cause Of My Diarrhea
jewi0008 replied to rjp0503's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I would guess that it's the xanthan gum, too! However, your body may not be able to handle the eggs or the soy? Those are very common intolerances, too. I'm curious...do you shop at Whole Foods a lot? I love whole foods and am looking for other great items there! -
I know EXACTLY what you are talking about! I get this, too...I think when I'm glutened. I cannot trace it...I only know that when I eat badly it happens. Usually it's just for one day...and typically the morning after. It hurts and burns so badly. You are not crazy; it really does happen. I wish someone could tell me what food(s) cause it, too!

ARCHIVED For Anyone Suffering From Mouth Irritations
jewi0008 replied to jewi0008's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I will definitely get the sublingual as well, but I do not have "sores" in my mouth. I just have like a chronic irritation, where it always feels like my teeth are scraping on my tongue, burning mouth, ect. -
Del, I once had the left side pain so bad that I thought it was my ovaries. I was in the worst pain...after a lot of money spent at the Dr...nothing was found. I believe it was the gluten. I could not even sit my left side hurt so badly!

Joni, Most of my problems are with my mouth. It's just AWFUL and mine never goes away! Does your tongue feel like it's constantly scraping against your teeth? I go insane!!!!!!!!
