    This. I've had this for the last few months. I'm constantly smacking my shoulder off doorframes, dropping cards, keys etc. I'm generally very good with spacial awareness, I was always very sporty, but since the celiac disease came on it's been a clumsy-fest. I'm hoping that'll go away as things heal though.

    Me too, I'm a lot more switched on since I went gluten-free. I'd been struggling at work for a few months before I got DX'd. My workmates have noticed a return to the old me since I've gone gluten free, without a doubt. In fact If I think back a bit, I've been making jokes for years that I felt I was losing more braincells than most people my age. Don...

    How're you getting on Greenling? I did my first Tai Chi class on Sunday morning. Not sure about it if I'm honest but I'll give it a few more classes before I make a decision about it. To be fair, I did feel pretty stiff afterwards despite it being mostly very slow moving I do like the idea, I'm hoping that the reality becomes a bit more satisfying soonish...

    It's actually improved for me over this week. I was pretty destroyed at the beginning of the week but by last night I was able to stay up most of the night. I've been having the usual newbie problems as I find more ingredients that dont agree with me, and that plus a return to work ( I get up at 6am to go to work ) did for me I believe. That said, I had a...

    Makes sense to me. Would explain why they don't check that gluten free box, for sure. Thanks for the replies folks

    Thanks The spicy one does list wheat, my one doesn't, yet if you go here: Open Original Shared Link ... then the sauce is listed as not gluten free. All I know is I have very definitely been glutened. Even the back of my eye is burning.
  7. NoodleUnit
    Actually, found it. Open Original Shared Link The sauce I had ( original ) has no mention of wheat, spicy does though.
  8. NoodleUnit
    Can you point me to the link kareng? The ingredients on the bottle make no mention of wheat all, in any form.

    Massive rookie error just now. Fancied an easy meal tonight, so I picked some Uncle Ben's Sweet and Sour. Felt the symptoms come on before I'd finished the plate It had no mention of anything gluten wise at all, but on their website it's rather confusingly indicated as not gluten free. The only thing I can imagine that contains gluten in the ingredients...

    Was just about to ask about this. I've been eating gluten-free crisp or cracker breads for lunch and my asthma is back as are the neuro symptoms. I can tell within half an hour, now if I've had something troublesome so i know it's these that are the culprit. Stupidly, I took the risk based on the ingredients and ignored the "not suitable for milk allergy...

    I'm still waiting for results of my bloodtest ( things happen slowly in the UK, I find )but both myself and my neuro did it as a "why not?" exercise, as I hadn't touched gluten for weeks before I saw her. I know coming off gluten ended a very scary period in my life, as does my neuro. She's 99% certain it is celiac disease and I'm happy to take 1% uncertainty...

    That's the way it is for me too. I think my body is coming across all sorts of new ingredients and is having a hissy fit when it deals with them for the most part. Hoping this will pass, as it's pretty miserable when it happens/

    ...and still very relevant to me at least . I'm experiencing serious fatigue about 2 months in to my gluten-free diet. This is my first week back at work after 7 weeks off and it's doing me in. I'm up at 6 - okay until about 2pm, then I seem to hit the wall and am completely incapable of functioning from then on. Good to know it's common enough to warrant...

    Just wanted to ask if anyone wakes up with a massive hangover if they've been glutened ( I know it's not gluten this time, but still, shorthand for "ate something really bad")? I'm starting to figure out I have a problem with potato starch and flour. At the weekend I had a fair bit of it and it made me feel horrendous. I woke up the next day, with the worst...

    Mikey I had problems focussing when I was really bad before I figured it all out. One of the things I had was a rapid vibration in my right eye. Are you getting any neuro issues? I.e. burning sensations behind the eye etc.

    That's brilliant news Greenling I remember being surprised at how much of a burn I got after even just that first run/walk day. I've just started back at work after 6 weeks convalescence. We went for our usual lunchtime 30 minute walk and it nearly did me in ( I'm still having the neuropathy, which makes my right leg fatigue quickly, it's slowly going...

    Wow - I'd been wondering about cats. I've been horribly allergic to them all my life, hand in had with the asthma in fact. They always seemed to pick me ( the allergic one ) to sit on, which is why I've developed a deep distrust of them Recently though, I've been thinking about keeping a cat, can't have a dog and my daughter keeps on begging for one...

    Well I think you've hit the nail on the head. It had been subsiding all day until I had my dinner. Now my stomach is burning and I'm getting the whole shebang again as if I'd been glutened. The meal consisted of chicken, green veg, carrots and... potatoes. Bingo. And there goes one of my staple foods...

    RE: Nightshades Well, that's an odd one. I did seem to have a bad time of it with them for a short while earlier on this year, but now that I've gone gluten-free it seems to have gone away.

    @GLutenFreeManna - I've replaced all my cooking utensils with new ones so I doubt it's CC. We never did any baking in our kitchen before this anyway. I will bear it in mind though, So many traps... @Marilyn R - the longer the reply the better - I need the information I think I'm fine with corn and maize as gluten-free stuff that I've eaten with those...

    Very good advice, that. ^ I'm taking glucosamine for my joints anyway as I punished my body pretty hard when I was younger. Actually... there's a thing. I was told to stop running and playing hockey for a year when I was 16 because if I carried on I'd never run again. The cartilage in my knees was disintegrating and getting stuck between my knee joints...

    Wondering if anyone could point towards a common culprit here. I've been really enjoying learning to bake since I Dx'd about 3 weeks ago. I've run into a few problems though. My symptoms came back in the first week of baking, and only went away this week when I decided to stop entirely and then reintroduce ingredients gradually. so I started again today...

    Thanks very much for that GFinDC - as a result of your post I've just got myself some Vitamin B tablets ( I think it's B6, B12 plus some other stuff like niacin, etc.). I've just read that deficiency in niacin can lead to lowered tolerance of cold temps. Makes a lot of sense to me, as last winter once this all kicked off I was far more prone to feeling very...

    Glad I can be of some help . It's something I'm getting my head round round just now too, I think I'll probably do some upper body stuff next week ( my op last month means I can't really do cardio or lower body stuff yet ). I have two problems at the moment - one is my grip as the neuropathy makes my right hand quite weak, which in turn makes holding...

    I'd also highly recommend the Isle of Coll if you want amazing beaches all to yourself - spent a bit of time there in my younger days too. Stunning place that often gets overlooked.
