    Hi there, Thanks for all the replies. Thought I'd give a heads up. Don't worry, I'm being careful. It's not really that kind of heavy duty detox I think. It's more focussed on diet ( in terms of what you eat rather than how much ), than the supplements and the supplements you take are much more aimed at getting toxins out of your body once your liver...

    Ok. Cut a long story short. I've started to have gallbladder trouble. Serious issues with fatty foods ( left me ill for the Xmas hols ), and am due for an ultrasound soonish. However I've had more than my share of medical procedures this last year so I want to try and nip anything potentially serious in the bud. I was and remain skeptical, but am doing...

    I'd just like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and voice my thanks to the eternally helpful regulars on here. It was about a year ago ( actually I can pinpoint boxing day as a key moment ) that I started to hit a brick wall with my health. It was very much due to the helpful and knowledgable posters here that I managed to eventually see a way past it....

    Interesting. I notice from your sig, your children have the condition. I take it you yourself don't? Could this be the hereditary link for your kids? Ever since I found about the hereditary link I've seen undiagnosed or misdiagnosed evidence of it in my family for at least 3 generations. I think I got away very lightly ( so far ) with the Keratoconus...

    Just to echo Ravenwoodglass. My nerve issues seemed to dissipate much more rapidly after heeding advice on here and taking a vitamin b complex supplement, which I am now taking again to try and help with the neuro issues which resurfaced after I went back on gluten prior to my own endoscopy. They do a damn fine line in good advice here

    Thanks for the reply. I've had the IBS catch-all thrown my way several times. Always gets me angry. Thankfully I won't need either transplant or surgery. We caught it early and controlled it with hard contacts. It hasn't changed at all in the last ten years.

    Just a heads up. Feeling infinitely more with it today. Had a couple of odd missing time moments this morning but since this afternoon I've been fine. Still got the sore neck though. Thanks for the advice.

    Open Original Shared Link I was found to have this condition nearly 20 years ago. It's essentially a warping of the cornea which can cause light to smear and requires the use of hard contact lenses to correct. I was lucky enough to find an expert in the field working as an optician near me. The hospital uses him as the keratoconus specialist round here...

    Out of interest does it feel like the muscles in your neck are tightening up? That's how it feels for me when I get the headaches and eye pain. I also get rapidly and extremely irritable. It does sound to me as though you're homing in on at least a major culprit in your issues. It was a revelation for me when it happened so hopefully it'll answer a lot...

    Thanks Ravenwoodglass, I very much agree it's still in my system which is alarming as I was told that I would feel fine when I woke up this morning. It's now well past the 24 hours that i was assured was all it would take to get out of my system and I still feel decidedly out of it. If I still feel bad tomorrow I'll be contacting my local practice.

    Hi all Wondering if anyone has had any odd after effects after the endoscopy procedure. I had mine yesterday, and was given some sort of amnesic sedative, which didn't seem to make me feel calm at all and didn't really erase much of the memories of the procedure. I remember a lot of it, and a great deal of it I truly wish I could forget. However...

    I had very severe neuro symptoms also and MRI scans galore at the beginning of the year. It covered the gamut from uncontrollable rapid vibrations of my right eye only, thru loss of grip in my right hand and blinding pain in bands up my right leg and arm, to the simple, standard tingling in my extremities that for so many is a sign of being glutened. For...

    Just a heads up. I've got 5 days left til I can stop taking this horrible poison. The endoscopy is on the 13th The neuropathy is worse but still not a patch on how it was months so. What's getting unbearable is the pain in my abdomen on the right side. It tends to vary and radiate up and down, and from back to front or vice versa. Is this normal? And how...
  14. NoodleUnit
    Thanks, Skylark I am concerned about c/ myself, I have to say. It's not as bad as it was, at the moment. If it gets close to that then I will call it off without a doubt. The most prominent symptom right now after 2 days is a painful right side of my abdomen. I'm getting tingling down my right side though, so will be keeping an eye on it. I am getting...

    Hi all, Had a bit of a set back with an ulcer recently. And I have an endoscopy to do in December, so I have to gluten myself every day and that means I don't really feel up for it right now. So... hopefully I'll be back at it in January. Hope you're all okay. Cheers Noodleunit

    Hi all, Thought I'd post here as I'm going through something similar and extra info from/for me may be helpful to Ginger99 as well . It's been a few months since I've posted here and since I've had any accidental gluten intake. My progress since I made this post has been very marked indeed. I went from loss of sensation in my right side to almost complete...

    Hi All The knee has taken a little longer to heal than I would have liked. I think it's okay now, but I've lost a lot of my cardio gains waiting for it to stop hurting. Will probably give it a test today to see how it goes. Interesting about the corn Greenling. I'm not getting any medical support as I would need to go back on Gluten to prove to...

    Sorry to hear about your fatigue and CC issues Greenling. Good to know you're still around though I'm still settling down into my new routine but am getting there. Winter is on it's way so I'm starting to think about alternatives to running right now. I've been out of action with a torn ( not badly ) knee ligament for the last fortnight but should be...

    Seem to be really hitting the wall with this at the moment. I'm simply not recovering from my runs well enough to make the leap from Day 1 and 2 ( ( intervals ) to Day 3 ( no intervals ). I was 42 pounds heavier when I did this last year before the celiac disease came on, and I found the jump surprisingly easy back then. I tried Week 6 Day 3 on Sunday...

    Finally. Week 5 Day 3 Done. Two miles with no breaks, at reasonable pace for me too. I even mustered half a sprint for the last 100 yards. So, yay \o/
  21. NoodleUnit
    Heh, I did some weights yesterday. BIG mistake, because I did squats. I managed to do Week 5 Day 2 today but man it was hard, I had nothing in my legs after yesterday. I'll be focussing on upper body until the end of the c25K Another bit of good news too, Rachel landed a job. so we're all good.

    Not strictly canning but I just harvested a huge amount of mint from our mint plants before the frosts come ( chocolate mint no less, and yes it does taste like it ). I dried all the leaves in the oven, crushed them up and jarred them. They make an amazing mint tea, perfect for settling the stomach.

    Hi everyone Been a hard fortnight or so, so I've not really been online. Both myself and my partner, rachel are getting made redundant from separate companies at the same time. Her's was/is a long process, mine happened very suddenly. I'm now on garden leave just a week after my first letter telling me I was at risk. It's not all bad, the job was making...
  24. NoodleUnit
    That's definitely something I have to improve on. Since all this happened I've had massive problems with lactic acid in my muscles for days after. I know I should stretch, but like you say, I need to budget the time. I actually managed Week 5 Day 1 yesterday, again (I was feeling decent so thought I'd try it, if it didn't work then I'd revert to the previous...

    Hi Greenling, Definitely agree with Gluten Glad180r. I've gone back to Week 4 just now too. I did one run last week, on Friday. I though I'd beaten the cold but really felt very fatigued which I think was basically me still fighting the cold. The run was allright but I'm missing the spring in my step just now. If I still have trouble jumping to Week...
