Twiggy

Dratt! I accidently glutened myself on tuesday and ive been payiong the price for the last 2 days......my tummy sounds like a cauldren.....ouch.My family need gass masks

Yeah on the occasion when i accidently ate gluten i had a blazing hot face and body.I am always hot but then again i do have a faulty body thermostat due to hypothyroidism you should have a test with your GP

I am actually amazed at the ammount of people who say to me ''oh i cant tolerate bread either'' it just goes to show how many people are affected even in a slight way by gluten

Thanks guy's i appreciate your replies

Thanks Rudi,i have to admit i share your wife's fear of gluten containing foods.I cant bear the smell of bread and the smell of cooking pasta either,maybe its a defence mechanism to keep me safe.Nothing tastes as good as i feel since ive stopped eating gluten (6 weeks ago) so i dont feel like i am missing out on anything.I do find it comforting though that...

After nagative endomysil blood tests and negative gastroscopy results the doctor has diagnosed me as gluten intolerant.She advised me that like ceoliac patients i should avoid gluten like the plague.She admited that test results are not always accurate and said that if i wanted to repeat the test i would have to reintroduce gluten into my diet for the next...

Ive done 3 one positive and 2 negative.....i'm equally as baffled.my endomyosil test was negative.Im still waiting for my Gatroscopy results but gluten free is having a massive impact on me,i feel a tonne better in just 10 days.

Thanks for the Link Fluffy it sums my rash up to a ''T'',i'm just going to continue with my gluten-free lifestyle regardless of a DX,i feel fab!

Hmm,i feel too well to risk making myself ill again....i dont know what to do I dont know if i really do need a dignosis,i'm convinced i have DH so thats prob good enough and besides that,if i dont eat anymore gluten it wont be a problem in the future.I have noticed however that i seem to get upset and a washing-machine type tummy now when i have milk or...

I have vast improvement in my symptoms already,the stomach pain has eased and the bloating is starting to go down.I have'nt got the results of my gut biopsy back yet but i was feeling so poorly that i thought i'd go gluten free for 7 days to see if i felt any better and i'm glad i did.There is just one thing thats bothering me though,i think ive had DH since...

Hi i am Hyopthyroid,i have been on levothyroxine for 6 years....sadly for me it looks like i have been a silent ceoliac since my teens (am 39 now)the road to recovery is generally slow for thyroid patients.I suffered all mannor of symptoms beore diagnosis of thyroid and i'm sure if my ceoliac was diagnosed all those years ago i wouldnt have sufferd at all...

I get it.....on hands,feet,back of neck,elbows and knees i also get acne rosacea on my face which is not the best look for getting the fellas attention.....lol(good job i already have one eh?)It has a stinging ''nettle rash'' kind of feeling and comes up as water filled blisters which then burst and scab over...immensly itchy too.I will seek a skin specialist...

I cant digest mushrooms,they make an apearance again if you get what i mean(in my stool)

I felt a kind of tugging sensation and it felt tender immdiatley they took it,i think i must have had very little saliva that day cause the whole procedure seemed to be dry and tuggy in my pipes (for want of a better description ) the area of the biopsies felt a little tender for days after.I am still uncomfortabe today actually and its four days ago now...

I had my Endoscopy yesterday,i have a sore throat today but i also have a dicky tummy.Yesterday i felt like i'd been booted in the belly by a horse it was really sore and bloated.I felt them taking the biopsy it was a strange sensation they took 5 in total..no wonder it feels sore.The doc said that i may have a sore throat for couple of days.its going to...
