    Hi, Does anyone here have intense sugar cravings? I'm on a gluten free diet for 5-6 weeks now and I feel like eating cookies, ice-cream and crazy amount of sugar/carbs.. I am in fact going to see my doctor in a week or so to discuss this. I also noticed that whenever I drink milk, I get rapid pulse (~100 beats per minute) which lasts for 30 mins. or so and...

    Thanks for your reply and hope you feel better! I don't really have rapid heart beats just pounding! I think my heart rate is normal but just can hear by heart beat throughout my body for sometime. From what I can make out, thyroid and low iron can cause this to happen and probably anxiety caused by foods. My doctors checked my thyroid too and everything...

    Hi.. About a month ago I was diagnosed with gluten intolerance and since then have gone on a strict gluten free diet. I have some existing symptoms which have lessened to a certain extent but still there. I've noticed that after eating certain types of foods (I'm guessing dairy) I can feel my heart pounding. It's not rapid, just normal beats but I can feel...

    I was wondering if anyone here is sensitive to yeast in food products? My doctor tested me for yeast and it came back negative but he still said that I could be feeling sick due to some yeast overgrowth which sets up a path for food particles to go straight into the blood stream... Does anyone know any info regarding this? or have had symptoms? I had some...

    Yeah I feel the same, I feel lucky to have found him. I have confidence in his diagnosis and he was able to give me a really good explanation of my symptoms. His website (Dr Alex Shikhman, MD, PhD): Open Original Shared Link He has a good book on gluten intolerance, checkout Amazon for ratings: Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link

    Everyone is different, I think you're looking at text book symptoms... the panic/anxiety can take months to go away. I still have anxiety but it is not as sever as it was 2 months back.. Anxiety could be caused by thyroid functioning which gets effected by gluten or it maybe caused by food going directly into your blood stream, yeast overgrowth etc..

    You can have B12 low even with non celiac gluten intolerance... I've checked all these with my doctor.. I trust him given his track record and publications (books/papers) on this topic..

    I was also told that there are tons of people out there who are labeled "Celiacs" but are in fact only intolerant to Gluten (or non-celiac GI). So at the end of the day you really need a great doctor for an accurate diagnosis. Yeah I agree that the treatment is the same but to get a 100% accurate diagnosis, a great doctor is needed.

    I didn't have elevated anti bodies for Celiac but had for gluten/wheat. I had only stopped eating for about 3 weeks when I got tested and right 2-3 days before the test I had gotten some cross contamination and consumed some gluten. Conceptually they may be the same thing but fundamentally they are different. Celiac is the extreme form of gluten intolerance...

    Thanks for your reply. My doctor says all my blood, saliva and stool tests came back negative for Celiac but positive for gluten intolerance. He tested me for EMA, TTG etc and all are negative (through saliva/blood both).. He's also a renowned gluten intolerance specialist and has written books and published papers so its hard not to trust him but he thinks...

    Gluten intolerance and Celiac disease is not the same thing, fundamentally speaking. They may have the same symptoms and recovery times though. Celiac disease is an auto-immune disorder where gluten intolerance is a food intolerance that causes this auto-immune disorder. Gluten intolerance can also cause arthritis, diabetes type I, lupus etc... So you could...

    Hi how's it going everyone? I am a new member here, 29 years old male and have been diagnosed with gluten intolerance. For the last 5 months I've been really sick and have been to about 10 doctors. Finally I found someone who is a specialist in gluten (rheumatologist) and he diagnosed me by blood, saliva and stool tests (no endoscopy). According to him I...
