    Hey guys I went to my Gastro yesterday and because I'm almost done with college and I might be moving she gave me a copy of all of my records. Since being gluten free (5 years) I have had almost no relief from any symptoms and I'm looking for some answers, and no one has been able to give me any. While I was reading through my records I stumbled across...

    Thank you guys, StephanieL -- I got the allergy testing done because I started having more digestive issues than before I went gluten free. I had been eliminating out foods that I thought were bothering me, and was down to almost nothing. I'm not 100% certain but rice seems to cause me heartburn and bloating type reaction. The allergist tested me for all...

    Hi guys, I recently (yesterday) was diagnosed via a prick test that I have allergies to rice, walnuts, pork and grapefruit. I have already am pork, walnut, and grapefruit free, but I am having trouble finding gluten free and rice free foods. Does anyone know any good gluten and rice free recipes? or products. I am also trying to limit corn. And to top it...

    Hey guys I have been having strange symptoms: extreme energy levels causing me insomnia, general weakness, shaking mostly in my hands but occasionally my entire body, jumpiness, dry eyes, turning blue when tired, headache, hives, muscle twitching, hiccups, feeling out of breath and heart burn. They have been really bad since December, but they seem to be...

    thanks frieze That is what it looks like when i turn blue, although mine is very temporary it goes away about a minute or two after I get up and move, and when I turn blue it is pretty much my whole body, although recently it seems to be affecting single places at a time, like the other day my knees turned purple/blue when I was sitting at my desk but the...

    I finally got my test results back, the dr told me that they were all normal and then just kind of brushed me off. here are my results, some of them are on the edge of normal. I am curious about the thyroid results because my symptoms seem to be similar to thyroid problems. glucose 83 <74-106> Calcium 9.2 <8.4-10.2> Total Bilirubin 0.3 ...

    Thanks for the ideas Cavernio - I have looked into Reynauds syndrome and it doesn't really fit my symptoms because it doesn't seem to be related to stress or cold, mainly it is sleep or triggered by my position. I started having the symptom before I started taking any medications so I don't think its that. I am taking amitryptaline as a sleep aid instead...

    beachbirdie- thanks for the reply. I have been trying to get a new doctor recently but I am from a small town where there aren't any doctors taking patients I also have an HMO which only covers certain doctors but I did manage to get into see a different doctor at student health services. It was kind of a fluke though. I went back because I've started having...

    I would stay away from accutane I have 2 friends that took it and after finishing treatment they both became allergic to fragrances. one of my friends gets hives when she goes near/uses fragrances like lotions or candles, and the other gets a migrain and her skin itches even though she doesn't get hives. they also say that their skin is a lot more sensitive...

    Thanks again guys, ravenwoodglass - it kind of looks like that but not quite as red, mine is more of a blue gray hue. I am really particular about what I eat and I make all of my own food and don't really eat with non-gluten free people, so I don't think I'm getting CC if I am I have no idea how. I do know that I have other sensitivities/intolerances and...

    Thanks for the ideas guys Madagascar- the temperature doesn't seem to effect me turning blue, but I have noticed that the less sleep I get the more frequently it happens, also I asked my dr if it could be raynauds but he doubts it. I have not had my heart or circulation checked recently, I had an ekg about 5 years ago and it was fine, I was told I had a...

    Has anyone experienced their entire body (hands/arms, torso, legs/feet) turning blue/gray randomly, I have talked to my dr already but he seems stumped, and doesn't want to do tests until its worse. It started this past summer it happened like 2 or 3 times and it always happened when I had been laying on a flat wooden surface, and it didn't happen again until...

    Hey guys Well I'm a sophomore in college and have been gluten free for almost 4 years. About a month ago I started having trouble sleeping, both falling asleep and staying asleep. I brushed it off as midterms but midterms were 3 weeks ago and All of my classes are easy but I still can't sleep I have been averaging maybe 4 hours a night. I am also having...

    Is it safe to go vegitarian if you are gluten free, lactose intolerant, allergic/sensitive/whatever its called when you get sick from eating peanuts, eggs, bananas, anything from the cabage family, anything from the broccoli family, and soy? Reason for considering vegitarianism: any and all news articles about pink slime, large chunk of hair found in a...

    I was doing a little research today and I found that a comminality between almost every food that makes me sick is lutein. I was wondering if anyone had some information on a lutein intolerance or allergy, or if anyone knows how to find out if it is the lutein or I just got lucky with my "problem" foods (yellow corn {not white}, egg yolks {not the white}...

    ok so I haven't had any gluten free "treats" cakes, cookies, brownies... in awhile and I made some yesterday. I have my own kitchen, bowls, spoons etc. that have never touched gluten, I have used this recipe (bob's red mill) before with no problem, well I made them (eggless like always) and I had 2 small brownies yesterday at lunch time, about 2 hours later...

    I haven't had a fasting blood sugar or glucose intolerance test, the dr (at student health services) said i didn't need them becuase my blood sugar was in the normal range when they tested it, even though type 1 diabetes runs in my family (my paternal grandmother and all of her siblings) they only told me the thyroid test was fine.

    I was tested for diabetes at the beginning of the school year, because I had (still have) increased thirst/urination, fatigue, vision problems, and headache. they did used a glucose meter and measured my sugars when I went in and said that they were normal. they also checked my thyroid, which was normal, and checked for mono, also negative.

    I came across this in some research and had some questions about it. - can celiac disease come first, followed by other autoimmune diseases - what are the risk factors/ statistics of having this - is this genetically or environmentally caused I just started my research on this but I am not a great researcher so if you guys could point me in the right...

    I am a freshman in college so I recently was looking at schools. I would recomend finding the schools that you are interested in for their major, size, location, etc. before worring too much about them accomidating celiacs, especially if you have a dr dignosis. When you go on college visits make sure to try out their gluten free options and scout out how...

    Have you ever looked into a sensory problem. They run in my family, and kids with them are usually hyper or hypo sensitive to a sense which causes them to be extremely picky about what they eat, touch, etc. This link has some info on it Open Original Shared Link If it sounds like your daughter it might help to get her into occupational therapy, because...
