  1. LADIES!!!!! OMG you have no idea how happy I am to find this thread! Where should I start? I was diagnosed with celiac 8/09 and had a fibroid removed from my uterus (through my belly button) in 9/09. Two months after surgery, I was standing in the kitchen drinking OJ when I immediately felt like I had shards of glass in my urethra. I'd never been aware...
  2. When I went gluten free, I experienced the most painful heart burn ever. For a week or two I ate rolaids and tums like they were candy. I had never experienced real heart burn before that. It was super intense but eventually went away. I think the severe diet change caused my body to freak out a bit. I understand the "Is it all in my head" problem...
  3. The uro-gyno who diagnosed me with vulvodynia The diagnosis was fairly quick but dealing with other symptoms that are related or unrelated has been difficult. She prescribed imipramine and sent me on my way. Anything that I tried to mention she disregarded as crazy. All the food stuff, weird intestinal stuff, weird lady part pain and itching...she had...
  4. Similar situation here! I went gluten-free in August and was super excited when I started feeling better. Then around November, everything went crazy. It was like everything was making me sick. I started cutting foods out and noticed things that made it worse but not better. I have been down to so little, I've lost a lot of weight and still have no clue...
  5. Holy crap! I had no idea there were so many people with both celiac and vulvodynia! Sorry to say ladies, but I'm so glad I'm not alone. This had been a nightmare. I just said a bunch of bad words before the word nightmare...I am trying my best to figure out some kind of solution/plan for all of this but it is painfully slow. I was diagnosed with celiac...
  6. Hey people! I don't know what's going on with me exactly but I have recently come across the low oxalate diet. I had a serious reaction to brown rice. Serious. However, white rice is very different. Not perfect, but VERY different. This diet hasn't been perfect. I still react to all food, but understanding the differences in the types of foods...
  7. More to share... I finally tried white rice and it seems to be ok. Brown rice was a big NO but white seems to be better. How interesting! But I have a different question. For those with vulvodynia...and those with other food weirdness, how fast do you know you've eaten something bad or wrong? How quickly do you react? Depending on the food...
  8. Ok Ladies, I was diagnosed with celiac in August 09. September I had a large fibroid removed from my uterus. My doctor thinks surgery may have tipped off the vulvodynia. In some ways, I've had vulvodynia-like symptoms for about a decade but it for sure got worse once I went gluten-free and had surgery. Since the oh so fun symptoms started I...
  9. Holy, holy crap. This makes perfect sense! I've had sensitive teeth my whole life. My mom had soft teeth, her mom had soft teeth...I was also on antibiotics for 8 years as a kid which made my soft teeth even more soft. I've always had bad teeth (multiple root canals, lots of cavities as a kid) but have recently (within the last few years) been working...
  10. Holy crap, this is my worst fear! I can't believe this actually happened. I'm so glad you confronted her! I would go to her house, hold her down in front of the computer and MAKE HER READ ALL OF THESE POSTS! This is beyond unacceptable, beyond! I'm a little crazy about my food, where it is, where it came from, what it's packaged in...and heaven forbid...
  11. I tried an elimination diet but it didn't work very well. I kept cutting things out but nothing got better and then all food became a problem. I'm down to so little food. I've lost a lot of weight but I eat constantly. It just goes right through me. Someone had a helpful suggestion about looking at low stomach acid something or other...I feel like I'm...
  12. Citrus for sure. One day I drank orange juice and immediately felt like I had shards of glass in my urethra. That's what made me look online and I found info about interstitial cystitis. I started following that diet and went to the uro-gyno who totally blew me off and said it likely wasn't IC even though I have many of the symptoms. I've had some success...
  13. Believe me, I know how crazy this sounds but starting in December, when I eat certain foods...my vagina hurts. At first it was just my urethra area but now I can't tell what's going on. First it was just with citrus then it became most foods. I went gluten free in August and had a few months of simple diet changes (simple only because I already knew so...
  14. I've had a really hard time with the elimination diet and haven't been feeling better. Cutting out gluten was fairly easy since I knew so much about it already but about three months after going gluten-free, I started having weird reactions to citrus. I cut that out and then started following the interstitial cystitis diet because so many of my symptoms...
  15. Oh Jason! I know exactly how you feel! I was diagnosed in August of 09, right before I had surgery to remove a large fibroid from my uterus. Fortunately, going gluten free was fairly easy for me since my mom was diagnosed 8 years ago and my sister about 3 years ago. I already knew a lot about the diet and I live in Portland, Oregon which is an amazing...
