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

ARCHIVED Hyper Sensitive Tongue?
fritzicurls replied to Moongirl's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
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 -
ARCHIVED Colon Pain And Tenderness?
fritzicurls replied to SuzieQ's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
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... -
ARCHIVED Struggling With The Email
fritzicurls replied to fritzicurls's topic in Board/Forum Technical Help
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...

ARCHIVED Born And Raised... First Post....
fritzicurls replied to celiacuser12345's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
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... -
ARCHIVED Thank You And Migraines
fritzicurls replied to Faithperson's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
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...

ARCHIVED Asberger's And Celiac Disease
fritzicurls replied to mochalatta's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
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... -
ARCHIVED Child With Constipation With Celiac
fritzicurls replied to Nic's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
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... -

ARCHIVED Therapist Would Like Help For Clients
fritzicurls posted a topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
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... -

ARCHIVED Does Anyone Get Virtigo?
fritzicurls replied to minibabe's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
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 -

Try getting rid of yeast infection. I had this problem until I got my yeast infection under control. Going gluten-free was about half the solution for me. Getting rid of my yeast infection did the other half. Try this website candidafree.com. These people are unbelievably helpful and have been so supportive. They know everything about yeast infections...

ARCHIVED Does Anyone Get Virtigo?
fritzicurls replied to minibabe's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Vertigo can be such a pain. It can be caused not only by gluten but by yeast infections that settle in your ear. It is very helpful to get rid of the yeast infection and go gluten free. Try this website candidafree.com. Also there are exercises that stop the vertigo immediately. I learned this from an ENT doctor who charge me $175 and then I found it... -
ARCHIVED Weird Question:
fritzicurls replied to GlutenFreeAl's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
You guys might also want to check out if you have a yeast overgrowth infection. This stopped for me completely (glutened or not) when I began to get control over my yeast infection. Great website candidafree.com. fritzicurls -
ARCHIVED Canker Soars?
fritzicurls replied to jessika393's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Canker sores can be caused by magnesium defficiency (it also causes a lot of other things that celiac causes! Any wonder since absorption is such a big problem!) To find out how much you need, get a good magnesium (google Magnesium KAL - it's cheap), then take 200 mg every hour until you reach diarrhea. Then back down from that amount and that's how much... -
ARCHIVED To The 'senior' Celiacs
fritzicurls replied to danikali's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I feel like a senior celiac even though I have not been gluten free for extremely long - 10 months, but I feel senior because of all the changes. I feel like my symptoms before gluten-free were very intense - seizures, high blood pressure, debilitating anxiety and depression, vertigo, constant feelings of unbalance, fatigue, oh the fatigue, arthritis pain... -
Thrush as you probably know from your readings is a form of candida/yeast infection. Doctors will typically prescribe antibiotics for yeast infections which only make matters worse in the long run. I have a VERY resistant form of yeast infection and am FINALLY gettig free of it with the help of Mark and Alyson Cobb who run the candidafree.com website....

You are certainly in the right place - lots of us have experienced severe depression and anxiety that was called a whole bunch of things that were actually celiac related. I developed epilepsy as a result of untreated celiac and have been to all the big epilepsy centers in the US. Not one doc mentioned the connection between celiac and epilepsy. I was...

ARCHIVED Ear Problems? Dizziness?
fritzicurls replied to PicturePerfect's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I too have recurrent vertigo. I think mine is related to and inner ear infection related to yeast infection. I am hoping to get them both cleared up. In the meantime I went to an ENT guy who showed me two exercises - one to take care of the veritgo episode immediately (it works!) and one for long term help. Vertigo is caused by little calcium balls in...
