    So how long did it take for your thyroid to start functioning well enough for you to start functioning?? I am not functioning well at all right now and would soooo love to know that this was a temporary thing. Also as I said my Dr seems to be baffled about how to fix my thyroid if airborne gluten keeps impacting it so are you saying after a while your body...

    Butterfl8, I just saw this post and realize it is a month old but wanted to tell you I am having the same kind of issue. If I am exposed to airborne gluten I have serious neurological issues and severe fatigue then the neuro symptoms pass after a few hours but I am left with severe fatigue and the next day I have severe hypothyroid type symptoms. I am beginning...

    Thank you all for the tips, advice and encouragement. I tried to find a shelter when I left him last week but all the shelters in florida are communal environments and because of my airborne issue I would be too sick to function in that setting so in effect the only safe place for me is my own home from a gluten perspective. I talked to several shelters...

    Ravenwoodglass We are in a bit of the same boat. My husband has decided that this whole celiac thing is all in my head and there is nothing wrong with me or with my 3 yr old son who has been diagnosed as well. Yes, we were both diagnosed thru blood tests and he asserts that I interpreted the results the way I wanted and so did my Dr. He has made several statements...

    So I am super sensitive and in fact have severe neurological symptoms if I inhale gluten. I know some of you have mentioned you have had similar reactions from inhaled gluten and I need to know does it get better after you heal? Will I always react so severely and to nothing at all? I find myself in a position that I need to go back to work but I really can...

    yes, b12 deficiency is very common for us. I had to take sublingual methlycobalamin in order to get my levels up. Just taking sublingual cyanocobalmin didn't help me.

    I doubt this will make you feel any better but I have been at this gluten-free diet for 5 months and am still sick. I have a few good days now and again though so I suppose that is progress. The first 3 weeks of gluten-free I felt like a million bucks then all of a sudden I was very sick. My hubby says if you have a problem with wheat and you remove it shouldn...

    Bakingbarb, I think it is great you are still able to bake gluten items for friends and family. Most people wouldn't dream of it for fear of cross contamination. I personally am newly diagnosed and am EXTREMELY sensitive to gluten right now. One of threads on the forum talked about how sensitive some people are and one woman said she can't walk down the bread...

    I had major health issues and was finally dxd with celiacs. After I was laid off I had to find my own insurance and was also denied coverage because of my history. (of course if the stupid Drs had listened to me we could have avoided my whole history but whatever) Anyhoo, it is standard to deny coverage with anyone who looks like they are high risk. But if...

    Yes the hernias can definitely be related to celiacs. If you have undiagnosed celiacs and you are eating gluten your intestines become inflamed and distended. Add to that the nutritional deficiencies that can cause muscle weakness and our intestines are literally like a folded up balloon looking for any weakness to just pop out of. So it is definitely related...
