  1. Thank you. And I just noticed that you have listed in your signature "bi-polar disorder declared in remission by a suprised psychologist." I read yesterday that undiagnosed/untreated autoimmune thryoid disease results in people vacillating between hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism (despite what a blood test from any one given day might yield) and so...
  2. I had the Anti TTG test done and just got the results yesterday....Looks like my autoimmune thryoid disease is all related to autoimmunity triggered by gluten. Results below. Thanks for the suggestion, it has all come full circle now. I will be gluten free for life! Tissue Transglutaminase Stool Test Fecal Anti-tissue Transglutaminase IgA 24 Units...
  3. Thank you...Please provide links to more of your papers if you can, I would like to read more about this as it is all so new to me.
  4. I also just learned I have autoimmune thryoid disease. Thyroid levels are still fine but I have an enlarged thyroid/benign nodules are present and very high level of thyroid antibodies. I will do the anti-TTG test to determine if gluten is the cause of the autoimmune thyroid disease...
  5. Thank you! I have eliminated dairy this week and finally my DH is clearing up!!!! I did a little research and learned that DH is often caused by both gluten and dairy intolerance. I previously had read it was only gluten and didn't understand why it wasn't clearing up now that I'm gluten free. So glad to figure this out...
  6. no doubt! no more gluten for me...so thankful i found this out at a time when gluten free is readily available.
  7. I hear ya on having enough challenges! Thanks for your reply....
  8. Hi, I just got my Enterolab test results. Definitely have issues with the most common allergens. I knew I felt better once I went gluten free despite having a negative celiac test! Anyway, my question to you guys who are much more knowledgeable -- based on the results below should I have other tests done while they still have my specimen? Do I need...
  9. I wonder if anyone knows about Vintage Seltzers or Trader Joe's flavored seltzers. Supposedly there is no artificial sweeteners but I am now just linking a decline in my health to when I started drinking it in large quantities (over the past year). In my teens, I had chronic yeast infections from nutrasweet in Crystal Light which I was drinking a lot...
  10. Hi - I am 3 weeks gluten-free. At 2.5 weeks I experienced dizziness, fatigue and itching. Well the dizziness and fatigue have lifted but I am now severely itchy all over. No rash (except for what may or may not be DH on my behind) but my whole body is going crazy with the itching. Is this candida die off? Since I went gluten-free, I no longer have...
  11. I am on week 3 gluten free. At about 10 days into it I starting having dizziness, extreme itchiness and serious fatigue. That lasted for 2.5 days. Instead of thinking I was reacting to some other allergen as I immediately thought, I decided to ride it out and stick with just eliminating the gluten and see if it was withdrawl symptoms. In my case, that...
  12. Takala, Thank you for your reply. The symptoms I described (dizziness, neck/shoulder pain, insomnia, extreme itching and DH flareup) are once again gone but I have continued the probiotics. I actually think it may have been a gluten free cereal and pasta that had other (non-gluten) grains including corn and quinoia. I avoided grains yesterday (except...
  13. Hi Everyone, I am new to the forum and new to being Gluten Free and feeling really weird as of yesterday. Here is my story: Childhood history of various illnesses and oversubscriptions of antibiotics (uncle worked for pharmaceutical co - they were given to me like candy) I have had lots of yeast infections in my life. Always felt tired and bloated...
