A lot of migraines are caused by magnesium deficiency. And a lot of celiacs are magnesium deficient. Take 200 mg of magnesium glycinate (KAL magnesium glyicnate - google that and you can buy this product cheap. No I don't sell it, it just works!) every hour until the migraine goes away. fritzicurls

I have always had geographic tongue. My tongue is very sensitive to all that you mention above. Plus, I got glutened on Christmas day and my tongue had two big canker sores on the bottom and was lacerated all across the top. Talk about annoying and painful. A very long week ensued! fritzicurls

Yes, I had colon pain every day for about two years before I figured out I had celiac disease. I took an antacid twice a day that whole time and some days it works and some it didn't. Then I come to find out that the antacid I was on was not gluten free. I went off antacids, went gluten free and after a couple of months the colon pain was absolutely gone...

Thank you, Karen, problem solved. I'm afraid I must have looked like Ground Hog Day (the movie), two very similar but not the same emails sent. Live and learn. Thanks so much! fritzicurls

Someone sent me an email through this site and asked me to reply. Twice I have replied and "sent" the email. I get a screen that says 'thank you for sending this and the recipient will be notified that they have an email'. However, there are no sent items in my 'sent box'. So either the person is left hanging with no reply to their question or I look...

I am wondering if you have Tourette's Syndrome, which is a probable cause for the facial and body tics. I have never read where Tourette's is connected to celiac disease but since celiac can cause neurological symptoms (I have celiac induced epilepsy) it may be responsible for the Tourette's. There are medications that can help some people with Tourette...

Migraines can be caused by magnesium deficiency. Take 200 mg of a good magnesium every hour until the migraine goes away. Should be no surprise since celiac can't absorb. Lots of celiac symptoms overlap with magnesium deficiency symtpoms. fritzicurls

I started having seizures 17 years ago. Then came the fatigue. I finally figured out celiac disease 10 months ago. By the time I went gluten free I had the following symptoms: seizures, constipation, fatigue, pale, pale face, depression (terrible), horrible anxiety, bloating, yeast infection, high blood pressure, bone spurring, arthritis, uterine and...

I have degenerative disc disease and bone spurring, calcifications in my brain, calcifications in my breast. A lot of this is related to poor calcium absorption. You need magnesium to absorb calcium. And since we are about poor absorption as celiacs, we need all the help we can get. I started taking big doses of magnesuim and the pain in my back and neck...

I am celiac and a play therapist with a lot of kids on my caseload who I believe are misdiagnosed. (See my request for testimonials farther up this board). I also have a nephew who has been diagnosed with Aspergers. I also have a roaring yeast infection of a very resistent strain. At any rate, while trying to find some help for the yeast infection I ran...

A lot of constipation can be caused by magnesium deficiency. I was gluten-free for a long time and no relief for the constipation although I was getting relief for so many other symptoms, so I know I was not getting glutened. Then I found out about the magnesium and combined with daily fiber I have very regualr bowel movements. It can take a lot of mag...

Nisla, thanks so much for the article, it was great. It will be so helpful with other parents. Thanks, fritzicurls

I am a therapist with celiac disease. I see it all over my caseload with the children I work with, everything from ADD to bi-polar to Aspersgers and Autism. Some parents will pick up the idea of celiac or yeast infectin and run with it. Other's are very skeptical. I would love some testimonials from parents like you, who have found some successes, no...

oh, wow, thank you so much. It's great to have more than one trick in your bag of tricks. fritzicurls

zmom, when you say the padded pink part of the foot near the arch, are you talking about near the ball for the foot or near the heel of the foot? Thank you for the suggestion. Sounds great. fritzicurls
