    Hi all! Anyone gotten useful advice from their doc on magnesium and calcium? Mine doesn't want to commit to anything because he doesn't know. He starting out advising me to take calcium. I told him that when I just take calcium I get migraines. I also get migraines if I DON'T take magnesium. And after exercise I sometimes get muscle twitches and I...

    I'll add one more "me too"! When I've been glutened I have to pee over and over for hours. In between my bladder is uncomfortable too, almost like having a urinary tract infection but it goes away on its own after the gluten episode. Sometimes this happens at night and it's hard to sleep (and very hard for my husband to sleep as I am shuffling into the...

    This is a really positive thread and is really nice to see. Thanks ElizabethN! I'll add that my husband has been really great about the diet and making me feel less alone with my high-maintenance food issues. I just came back from a trip and he had taken a trip to the health food store to make sure I wouldn't starve when I came home. He even bought...

    It happened to me and it was creepy! This was long before I was diagnosed. I had gotten the flu. I couldn't eat much for a few days and around the time I started getting better a CRAZY amount of hair fell out. It was evenly distributed, so no bald patches, but my ponytail wound up being less than half as thick (had to buy those tiny hair ties). I'm sure...

    Sorry to add bad news, but I lived next to a wheat field once (before I knew I had celiac)....it is the sickest I've ever been. Now, I don't know whether it had anything to do with inhaled proteins or anything, that's just the time I was sickest in my life. I got to where I couldn't eat anything without being doubled over in pain and I had bad tingling...

    Where does everyone buy this Jay Robb's protein??!!! I have searched the internet and it seems everyone is out of stock. Any help?

    What is micronized creatine? I used to take GNC's creatine monohydrate. The roughest form of creatine out there these days, I guess, but GNC is good and labels everything exhaustively. Most of their stuff is gluten free too. It worked for me. The bummer for me is their creatine ethyl ester. It comes in pills that don't cause bloating and get into...

    Unwanted muscle clenching can come from Magnesium deficiency! I have terrible deficiency of magnesium. I didn't know that for years and by the time I was in my teens I had ground my lower molars wayyyyyy down. I don't remember doing it, but I must have ground my teeth in my sleep starting in childhood. The magnesium problem also caused me migraines. ...

    Acid reflux - and the PA (yep, didn't even get to see the doc) kept telling me it was impossible that all the stronger and stronger antacids she was prescribing weren't working. My imagination - I actually sat outside in the hallway while my doctor and her boss talked about how I might be making all this up. Then there were a bunch of non-diagnoses...

    Grey, it is good to meet you on this forum. I hope we can exchange experiences and learn from this, because it seems most doctors don't study ADHD or celiac much. Bottom line, I'd tell you people with ADHD spend forever trying to find the right drug and then the right dose. They go through all kinds of side effects trying to decide if it's really better...
