How to explain it.... The reoccurring episodes that landed me in the ER on many occasions were when I would wake up due to nausea and then spend the next 6 or so hours vomiting violently (every 20 minutes or so) until all there was to vomit was bile and on these occasions I would usually have bouts of D until my body was totally emptied of everything. These...

ARCHIVED How Do I Know If I've Been Glutened?
Amelia01 posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Hello, 8 months gluten-free and to my knowledge I have not consumed ANY gluten. I have, however, suspected that I've been glutened here and there in this time. But I can't say for sure, because I cannot know exactly what being glutened would feel like. I was quite the asymptomatic celiac (bloating which I thought was normal for everyone and some itchy... -
ARCHIVED Oh No....
Amelia01 replied to FootballFanatic's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
In the event that you are taking a gluten-free pill but still feeling yucky (bloated, digestion problems etc), I was told by my doctor (while suffering the same even on a declared gluten-free pill!) that many contraceptives cause these kinds of problems, above all in people with a myriad of digestive issues. Even the informative paper in my pack speaks of... -
ARCHIVED Have I Been Glutened Or Are They Gallstones?
Amelia01 replied to Amelia01's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Thanks all for your replies. I went to my gastro doc the other day and he thinks that this constant ill feeling and trouble digesting is right now caused by the birth control pill (just started up for the first time in many many many years). Need to keep on taking it for some hormonal balancing issues but hope to not stay on longer than a couple of months... -
ARCHIVED Have I Been Glutened Or Are They Gallstones?
Amelia01 posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
help! Help! HELP! It is now going on 15 years that I've suffered these symptoms and I thought that by going gluten-free they would subside. But no. Many trips to the ER and 1 inpatient and 1 outpatient recovery and still NOTHING - no clear answers whatsoever. Every now and again (2 to 3x a year) I wake up early am (5ish) and vomit violently until... -
ARCHIVED Help With Alcohol, Vinegar And Pringles
Amelia01 posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Help! I am going on 6 months gluten-free (still always bloated) and to the best of my knowledge have not consumed ANY gluten whatsoever. I need some advice from the experts. I probably wouldn't know if I've been glutened or not (will try a last supper when doctor says it is ok) but have been staying away from alcohol and products with vinegar... -
ARCHIVED Celiac Disease And Italy
Amelia01 replied to bellabrit7's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
I just want to add something about being a celiac in Italy. I was told by the AIC (the Italian Association of Celiacs) NOT to order coffee in any bar or restuarant because they most probably use the same coffee machine for "orzo" coffee (a fake kind of coffee made from grains). I'm not a Italian coffee drinker but when I asked in some hotels I was told that... -
ARCHIVED Celiac And Fertility
Amelia01 replied to marmitelover's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
hi Marmitelover, We are also experiencing infertility and have undergone 2 IVFs. I was just diagnosed celiac this past spring (just prior to the last IVF) and have been gluten-free for 6 months and still no luck getting pg. Side note, none of our fertility workups (we have undergone extensive testing) have given us any results as to why. I have asked...
