ARCHIVED Contamination=No Energy
notkuroda replied to notkuroda's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
so question for you Gluten-Free: How long do your flareups last? Do you go through an extended period when they get worse and then better? She's been getting worse all week, and she's barely eating anything right now so we're not sure if that means that something else is contaminating her that she doesn't know about. She washes her hands before every meal... -
Hi everyone, writing on behalf of my wife again, who doesn't have time to visit this forum. Before I start, I've found a lot of very helpful info and support on this forum, thank you to everyone who contributes. My wife was diagnosed a few years ago. She has DH from Celiac. She's also hypothyroid. ONce she starts getting the rash, it's a red flag, she...

ARCHIVED Gluten Free Energy Supplements?
notkuroda posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Hi friends, My wife has celiac disease, which manifests through DH. She is also hypothyroid. She takes adderall to be able to stay awake during the day. About a month ago she was given a stronger daily dose of adderall. Her DH immediately flared up. She did all kinds of research on adderall and generics and eventually just went back to her old dose. Now... -
thank you for all the feedback. She's pretty much eliminating everything and going to raw food then slowly adding things back in. we have been told that Celiac patients can develop sensitivities to many different things. Maybe this way we can figure out if that's the case. Such a frustrating disease, you change your whole life to take one thing out of your...

My first suspicion was the cream too. She's stopped using it for a few days now, no real improvement. I do understand that the lingering effects can take a few days so she's totally off it(although she wishes she could find one that is certified gluten free). The DH has definitely flared up, usually she just gets a few bumps behind her ear or on her back...

Hi there. My wife has been gluten free for over 2 years now. Over the past week she has been getting contaminated by something, and we can't figure out what. She has DH, she's been having digestive problems, and is particularly tired and run down. We can't figure out what's getting her. She's stopped wearing makeup. She did start a progesterone cream...

ARCHIVED New Here, Wife Has Celiac
notkuroda replied to notkuroda's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
She takes lots of supplements to get her levels where it needs to be, we research everything that she takes. It's hard, sometimes you just never know. Plus it's tough for me cuz I find myself telling her NO a lot of the time. Last night we were at a game and she grabbed a toothpick that had 2 cherry tomatoes and two pieces of fresh mozzerella. She was just... -
ARCHIVED New Here, Wife Has Celiac
notkuroda replied to notkuroda's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
from what I understand, this disease effects different people in different ways. We are going gluten free because it seems that it's so easy for my wife to get contaminated, we just don't take the chances. She's also gotten contaminated eating off the gluten free menu at Outback, Uno's, and others so it's not worth it. You just never know who really understands... -
ARCHIVED New Here, Wife Has Celiac

Hi everyone, thanks for giving me a place to talk with those who understand. My wife was diagnosed about a year ago. She is also hypothyroid and has neurocardiogenic syncopy(fainting spells). The time leading up to her diagnosis was a very painful one. She had no energy, and frequently broke out in painful rashes(dh). The gluten free diet has helped her... -
Hi all, new around here, thought I would give the other perspective. My wife was diagnosed about a year ago. She is also hypothyroid and has neurocardiogenic syncopy(fainting spells). The time leading up to her diagnosis was a very painful one. She had no energy, and frequently broke out in painful rashes(dh). The gluten free diet has helped her a lot...
