  1. I have kind of a strange question. A couple times that last week or two I have been sitting in my chair and would get a wave of chills or something over and over. It kind of starts in my stomach and goes down my legs and I call it a wave because it's feels like it's almost rhythmic. I just sit there and get a cold chill feeling and it goes down my legs...
  2. Thanks for that link! I am going to post the summary below. I obviously would be #3 on the list as confirmed by an allergist. I had noticed before I went gluten free that bread was my main culprit. I could drink a beer or have a rice krispie treat and not notice anything but pizza, pasta, tuna sandwich, etc would be a problem. Obviously going gluten...
  3. I had a couple thoughts about an article published in Runner's World. They posted an article titled, "Are you really Gluten sensitive?" Basically the article says that while Celiac Disease exists in 1% of the population most people who say they are gluten sensitive aren't. The study took 37 people who said they were gluten sensitive and gave them a diet...
  4. I posted about a week ago that I had an exercise induced anaphalaxis reaction while jogging and had to be rushed to the ER. I had allergy testing done on Monday and while they found I was allergic to a lot of molds, trees, weeds, and grasses which I knew already and knew they gave me asthma and not an anaphalaxis reaction. I also found out I am highly allergic...
  5. Good advice everyone, thanks. I will start carrying both with me and I will also make sure they test for fish with my allergy testing. You would think fish and veggies would be okay, but who knows anymore. I am going to have everyone test the practice pen with me to make sure my family is comfortable with it. Thanks again.
  6. I now one two epi pens and carry one with me at all times. I am going to see an alergist asap but I believe I have to be off of the steroids and benedryl before I can. I grew up with asthma and allergies to pollen, mold, and rag weed. As an adult, those things seemed to fade in my 20's and then about age 30 I started to feel sick all the time again. Finally...
  7. I had a question for the board. Has anyone ever had an anaphyaxis (spelling?) reaction to gluten? I am not sure if gluten triggered it but Sunday night I had dinner (salmon, sweet potato casserole, green beans) and an hour later went for a jog. I was running and my chin and lip started to feel numb and swollen. So I cut my run short and headed home. ...
  8. My six year old is going to be tested with a blood sample this week for Celiac. I was wondering what your thoughts were because her symptoms don't seem celiac related but gluten free seemed to help them. She had a rash all over her stomach, legs, bottom, back, and forearms. It isn't the celiac rash and the doctor described it as discoid eczema. She wets...
  9. Thanks everyone. nvsmom, it is interesting you said bright kids because she is a very bright kid (I know everyone thinks that about their kid). She actually gets in trouble during reading lessons because she just reads the words when the other kids are supposed to be sounding them out and we were told by her teacher that they don't have anyone to pair her...
  10. 2 questions for everyone. My 6 year old daughter is on a gluten free trial right now that we started 3 weeks ago. My first question is that she was having behavioral issues in school with talking, not paying attention, very anxious, and arguing. Each day they can have an outstanding day, great day, good day, think about it day, or parent contact. She...
  11. Hello Celiac.com community. The last few days I have had pain in my back on the right side right below my rib cage and have been light headed a lot. I know this is where the kidney is located and have been researching some stuff on kidney infections, kidney stones, etc. The thing is, I don't have any of the typical symptoms of blood in urine, pain urinating...
  12. July 8th was my 1 year anniversary of going gluten free. I remember the day because it was one of the worst days of my life. I was diagnosed on July 7th, so I went out to eat thinking I would start tomorrow so let's go out with a bang. I had a malt with a big cheeseburger and onion rings knowing I would never have them again. So, Friday rolls around and...
  13. With me I believe I always had slight auto-immune issues because I had asthma and used to have to get shots every week because I was allergic to trees, ragweed, mold, and pollen. I was also so skinny that I used to drink those 2,000 calorie weight gain shakes in high school and was 5'10 and 130 pounds despite lifting weights and eating everything in sight...
  14. Interesting to see everything from Native American to Northern Africa to Ukraine. I guess by this time most of us have had a variety of different nationalities mixed into our genes.
  15. Thanks Karen. I have been on this site for a year but missed this one. I thought it wasn an interesting thought, but I guess with all the forums and all the people on this site it doesn't surprise me this has been covered already. It's like an episode of South Park where every idea that they came up with has already been done on the Simpsons because after...
