  1. Thank you JoAnn for all of your advice. It's greatly appreciated!! TIFF
  2. Hello Everyone, I'm not entirely new to this forum, but I have been trying to figure out my gluten issues. I have all the typical celiac symptoms, however, I was recently diagnosed with Lymes Disease. I tested positive for Band 41 , and now I have started a anitbiotic regiment diagnosed by my LLMD. Let me start off by saying that I am 30 years...

    ARCHIVED Celiac Or Lyme?

    Hello there, I have also been going to doctor after doctor to figure out what is going on with me. Throughout my experience with doctors they told me that nothing was wrong and I also needed to be on anit-depressants and start going to a counselor. Of course, I didn't listen and refused the anti-depressants. I am currently seeing a wonderful homeopathic...
  4. Thank you so much for the advice Ravenwoodglass. You don't know how much I need it right now. It sounds like you have been through alot. I didn't realize Celiacs could do that much damage. I've been kind of freakin out because I've been gluten free for almost 2 months now and I still don't feel 100% myself again. Everyone on this forum seems to feel...
  5. Thanks for responding! I have not had any pain in my legs besides the occasional joint pain. I have severe pain in my chest. It feels like I fell down some stairs and I'm completely sore in my chest. Sometimes its hard to breathe or even move a little. And with a 1 1/2 year old it makes it very challenging to be a stay at home mom. I never thought...
  6. Hello Everyone, I have not been officially diagnosed with Celiac, but I have been on a gluten free diet for approx. a month and a half. I also stopped any dairy products about 2 weeks ago. And I'm taking a whole slough of supplements, which was recommended by my doc. Anyhow, when all of my symptoms began I noticed a distinct difference. The...
  7. Hello Everyone, I have been gluten free for almost 2 months, and I am feeling better but I still have really bad days. About a week ago I decided to stop eating dairy products to see if it would help. I accidentally ate some cheese last night and this morning I feel horrible. Almost like someone has beaten me up. My entire body is sore especially...
  8. Hello Ravenwoodglass, Thank you for your advice. I actually had a question for you. You said in another post that Iodized salt can cause DH breakouts. My homeopathic doctor has prescribed me one drop of iodine drops every other day. Just wondering what your thoughts on this was. Thanks TIFF
  9. Hello Everyone, I am 30 years old and started having alot of medical issues that started in Jan 2009. I have been on a journey to find out what the heck is goin on with my body. Throughout my doctor visits I was diagnosed with costochondritis. It is a lingering pain that feels like a heart attack. I must mention that I also have Hashimotos Hypothyroid...

    ARCHIVED Dh Or Not?

    Hello Everyone, I have been on a crazy medical roller coaster which began in late January of this year. I have had lots and lots of symptoms that mimic celiac disease. And of course I was tested for it (blood test) and it showed negative, therefore, my doctor has already ruled it out. However, I have not. When my symptoms first began I had this...
  11. Thank you everyone for all of the advice.
  12. Hello Everyone, I have not officiallly been diagnosed with Celiac Disease, however, I have been on a gluten-free diet for 3-4 weeks now. And I have noticed when I put on make-up I sometimes break out in hives. I wear Covergirl products. Does anyone know if Covergirl is gluten-free? I'm trying to determine if it really is the make-up or something...
  13. Hello Everyone, I know this is sort of a funny question to be asking, but I have been thinking about it for some time now. I am 30 years old and I was diagnosed with Hashimotos Thyroid Disease at age 14. Everything was fine, and I was able to get pregnant with no problems at the age of 28. But I noticed something strange when I was pregnant. My areolas...
  14. Mother of Jibril, is it possible to ask you some peronal questions in private on this forum? Thanks TIFF
  15. Thank you for the advice "Mother of Jibril". I am very greatful for all of your advice. I'm just trying to get as much info as possible to figure out what is going on with me. And it seems as if you always have great advice for me. Thank you so much!! Actually, I'm very bummed because I have a 19 month old daughter and my husband and I were planning...
  16. Hello Everyone, I am fairly new to this forum and I was just wondering if anyone else has symptoms of hives. I get hives around my eyes every couple of days. Sometimes there along my jaw line. There are usually only one or two at a time, and they itch like crazy. I have been gluten free for 3 weeks now, and I have not eaten corn soy or dairy...
  17. Hi there, I'm a 30 year old woman who has had Hashimotos Thyroid Disease since the age of 14. In January I started having severe diaherra, constipation, ringing in my ear, joint pain muscle pain, headaches, abdominal pain, dizziness, eye floaters, blurred vision, loss of appetite, neck pain, back pain (lower and upper pain), anxiety, depression, and...
  18. Hi there, In January I had a vitamin D deficiency of 6. I am only 30 years old and I have had Hashimotos Thyroid Disease since the age of 14 and I've never had this problem before. The doctor prescribed 50,000 icu of Vitamin D once a week for 3 months and I started to feel better halfway through the process. I am off of the Vitamin D now and I'm slowly...
  19. Thank you for all of your advice!!!
  20. Thanks Mother of Jibril, Yeah, I was thinkin the same thing. But I just thought someone may know why he put me on the iodine. It kind of worries me. I almost feel like a guinea pig. My doctor said it supports the thyroid gland. I am on a detox program, but I still don't understand why he would put me on Lugols Solution. Why is it so hard to find...
  21. Oh I forgot to add that my current doctor prescribed 2 drops a day of Lugols Solution (Iodine) I have been taking it but I still wonder if anyone has heard of this before? I don't have a goiter, but I do have a small nodule on one side of my thyroid gland that my endocronologist said was common with Hashi's and there was no concern. I would appreciate...
  22. Hello Everyone, I am fairly new to this forum, but so far I have been given some great advice. I was just wondering for all of you who have Hashimotos Thyroid Disease if you have ever heard of someone taking Lugols Solution (iodine) along with their medication. I am currently taking 112mcg of Levoxyl. I am 30 years old and have had Hashis since...
