Verify that your fluids/electros have been checked recently, magnesium included. Ongoing dizziness is most often associated to this fact if vertigo has been ruled out.

I'm not a medical doctor, Lynne, but to my understanding an allergy would be represented by tightness of the chest, watery/glazed eyes, sudden confusion, and closing of the throat. "Sensitivities" are defined by more of a lower GI reaction. Hope this helps. Good luck to you and your family.

If you put the test on your credit card, I would call up and dispute the charge with your credit card company, informing them that you are unable to secure a reliable response from the company. You'll have your test sooner rather than later this way, I assure you.

Good comments, Brenda.It's amazing when you take a look at the body's organs and glands. In the head, we have the Hypothalmus surrounding and essentially in control of the Pituatory, the chief player in endocrine function/balance. Than, on the sides of the body we find the kidneys, with an adrenal gland sitting atop each of the kidneys. The stresses we think...

Interesting comment, Wendy. I wouldn't know if fat would ever store gluten, but fat cells do produce two hormones called Resistin and Leptin. There seems to be a lot of weight fluctuations among Celiacs centering around the implementation of the gluten-free diet, and/or the onset of the original symptom base. Whle the absorption factors are the likely culprit...

Thanks for the link, buddy. Great work, and that's exciting news, isn't it. The interesting part of this is that if I've learned anything at all, it has been to recognize that the concepts promoted here are probably the best type of suggestions that you could ever act on for the benefits of your own health. And for whatever reason, I believe this only...

Hello, Veasue. I am sorry to hear about your recent struggles. It's bad enough to be hit with one condition, isn't it, let alone two of them like that. I am not a doctor, Veasue, so you must never begin or end any treatments without first discussing them with your own, personal physician. I would suggest that you first rule out the presence of Ketones...

Thanks, Plan. That was very nice of you. Thanks a bunch. I'll try to take a look back at these this week. Thanks for the nice email, too. I'll get back to you w/ that by email sometime over the weekend. God Bless.

I probably knew it would come to this, one way or the other. Professor, you stay put, and I'll leave five days earlier than promised. We'll just do it that way, and be done with it. I wouldn't dare say a single word anymore in regards to my conclusions, regardless, so I'm done. All of my research is in, and it has already been passed along to the two...

Excellent question, professor. I'll take another look into this. I know that there has been some confusion along the way in her case. Her medical reports detail testing for the DQ2 and DQ8, both of which were negative. I can say for certain that these tests also are defined in my medical history. I did research this at one time and the lab titles seemed to...

Ok, I understand Plan. I'm sure that I was a little bit out of line there, too. I certainly do understand the frustrations you have about everything, too, Plan. I guess the only issue that I had was your declaration that I am here telling people what to do. Time after time, I have stated that I am not a physician, and that what I have said here should not...

If you're referring to the DQ2 and DQ8, mine were negative, though I am a Type 1 Diabetic. That was also the case for my family member, whose blood and biopsies at one time read positive for Celiac. And that is exactly why I've never bought into this, at least in her case.

Jk, that EXACT description is what I had been experiencing periodically over the past couple of years on rare occasions (About once a month for a couple of days). That's why I eventually decided to get tested for Celiac. All of the tests, including endoscopy, were normal, however. I'm a Type 1 diabetic that has an insulin pump. The symptoms had gone away...

Hepatoxicity, by definition, means nothing more than liver damage/distress. Depending upon the severity of damage, Hepatoxicity can be a serious condition, or merely one that lingers around for an extended period in the abscence of any severe damage. Here's a link covering a limited part of what is known about this condition, in basic terminology- Open...

Hi, KL. If you haven't had glucose testing done, I would think about that just so you may rule out diabetes. Anything having to do with blurry vision, you always want to rule out Diabetes in such a case, especially w/ the acknowledgement that Celiac Sprue and Diabetes share the same pathway (Blatently clear for me, at least). If these attacks are occuring...
