Hi! My twin and I have Celiac and have had it for four years. possibly crohns too. Love to run, walk, and be the epitome of health. We're gluten, caesin, soy, nut, egg free. No one around has any of this and I would love to talk! Email if you want!

P.S. I'm not sure what to say here so I'll check back later and change it!

  1. I also experience blurred vision and speech too long w/ out calorie intake. The speech thing- this is kinda different but my tongue swells and lips don't move very well, been told it could be a thyroid issue(hypothyroidism)but that hasn't been confirmed by a doctor yet. Does anyone have a history w/ thyroid issues?
  2. 5 years now, not glutened in over 8 months, so maybe its because of something else? lupus is one suspect, but that is very hard to diagnose even if the doctor thinks that is whats going on. there were hormone replacement meds a couple of years ago that led to periods of memory loss(side effect). That could be it too. I guess its not part of celiac. I've looked...
  3. Hey everyone I'm wondering if there is anyone else whose emotions are undefined. Sometimes I feel a range of emotions and am constantly happy but mostly, due to the fog I think, there is nothing else. I know when some emotions are expected and I try to express them but am a horrible faker. Then there is dating, could that be any less murky? So, does anyone...
  4. Where did silversail go??! I think we frightened her/him! FMcGee, THANK YOU! Here I was, ready to vent, telling silversail that it was an "intolerance" not and "allergy." Oh, I really don't like that post. Sounded terrible! Gotta go to class, but thanks! Anna
  5. hi CGally81! My blood tests came back negative too and so did the ANA test. I've been tested three times for it but they always come back negative because I have been on a gluten free diet for about five years. The ANA one threw me off 'cause I supposedly have Lupus, another autoimmune disease, but the ANA test came back negative! How is that?? If I...
  6. hello DIVa, I am right there with you. It is terrible to be glutened by your medication, been there and done that -several times Doc's told me it was gluten free, and low and behold, they weren't. Typical uh? nothing against doctors but it's been frustrating trying to find doctors who know this disease and what it entails. Anyway, hope the fog dissipates...
  7. hey Sarah, I'm a little late to your post, sorry!, but I'm a college freshmen in KY. Not that you'll know where that is Any way, feel free to email me at acmiha01@louisville.edu any time. How long have you had it? I've known for about 5 years now - trust me, it gets easier Anna
  8. Hello Shess0816! This is an true OMG moment! So, for four years, all of high school, I lost all artistic ability too! I couldn't imagine for 8-9 years though, that must have been terrible. I couldn't even doodle, and who can't doodle?! Anyway, I am super excited because about a month ago, it all came back and it makes me sooooo deliriously happy...
  9. Hey Beloved! I don't know if anyone has mentioned it, and I know all of these autoimmune things mimic each other just to make it harder to diagnose!, but could it be Lupus? I know FM and Lupus tend to piggy back each other. I don't know if this helps but I have random, and I mean random, swelling in my legs and ankles from Lupus and Lupus related kidney...
  10. I need so much more! For some of us who have very low immunity, it takes a lot. Like ten hours on a good day. Anna
  11. I am so with you!!! I never knew this section even exhisted! I didn't know that so many of us had this problem... ~Anna
  12. we went to 2 stores today, one had gluten-free cinnamon, the other store had gluten-free chocolate, hope they get to you soon! haven't tried them yet b/c the stores we were at prices ran higher than usual...
  13. interesting, my sister and i have experienced gluten symptoms with too many grains as well, we thought maybe because we haven't had them in so long, at least in any large quantity...
  14. I have a terrible time breathing too! It feels as if I'm running against a brick wall! The air never seems to reach my lungs and I see spots and get really dizzy. I have noticed a difference with the dairy free diet. Maybe you hvae a tree nut/peanut allergy? Too much potassium? I know its a lot to cut out and it's ridiculously hard to get calories, but...
  15. Hey! The pain that I have with celiac reactions is kind of like I'm loose-jointed, watery almost. The pain shoots around, behind, and beside my knees, it's mind blowing. I hate running with reactions because my legs feel as if they're leaving me behind, I feel so heavy but thats probably the edema I have with reactions. But yes, I have that problem...
