ARCHIVED Gtt Results And Other Lab Results
SleepyBunny replied to SleepyBunny's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
He basically told me last time to be careful what things I eat that might cause my sugar to spike. When I started feeling weak after eating I was eating oranges. He told me those cos blood sugar to spike. I was also eating bananas. Same thing :l He told me if I eat things like that to eat something like nuts with it to keep my sugar from spiking. I was... -
The dr wanted a GTT run because I had been having problems feeling weak. Usually within a few hours of eating I would start to feel this way. He also wanted to check my thyroid (been on levothyroxine 0.75 for a few months now) again and checked some other levels. GTT Glucose Fasting: 71.2 Glucose 1 hr post load: 185.0 Glucose 2 hr post load: 1...

Are you kidding?!?!? That's huge!! I'm so happy for you I know we don't know each other but panic attacks are a big deal and can really keep you from living your life. If you were able to go out and get through mini attacks while out I'd say that's a big deal. Congratulations! *high five*

ARCHIVED Glucose Tolerance Test.... I'm Scared :(
SleepyBunny replied to SleepyBunny's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
@JulieBove - When I was getting my celiac test done he tested for a few other things. My glucose being one and it was at 80. I've never had any blood sugar problems test wise. My uncle has diabetes and I just found out my other uncle does also. I do have a few skin tags like 3 lol I've lost like 40lbs in the past year or so so not as much belly fat as before... -
ARCHIVED Glucose Tolerance Test.... I'm Scared :(
SleepyBunny posted a topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Lately I've been experiencing muscle weakness. I'll eat before I go to work and after being there for about an hour I start having that weak feeling without really being hungry. I started taking those sweetie clementines and eating one when I felt that way and it would help a bit. The dr told be those aren't the best chose cos they cos my blood sugar to spike... -
ARCHIVED gluten-free Gravy @ Whole Foods
SleepyBunny replied to maximoo's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I've tried the Golden gravy. In my opinion it wasn't good. Tasted like sawdust The premade turkey one was ok for what it is lol If you have some food that's nicely salted it's good Glad you found some alternatives -

ARCHIVED Something I Found Funny :)
SleepyBunny replied to SleepyBunny's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
If I had a chunk of land with bunnies me and my dog would go nuts! I'd be throwing carrots and lettuce on the porch every morning Sometimes I feed the birds and squirrels that come into my yard. They're so fun to watch -
ARCHIVED Something I Found Funny :)
SleepyBunny replied to SleepyBunny's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
It's so frustrating cos I just want to lose maybe 15-20lbs, but it's kinda hard when you don't feel like exercising. I'm having issues with my thyroid so I'm sleepy again. And I felt like my skin was lookin a little better until I was put on levothyroxine and started breaking out Good luck with your weight loss! Us nerds need to stick together! -

ARCHIVED Blood Work Results, Thyroid And Nodule
SleepyBunny posted a topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I posted on here a couple of months ago some of my test results. I'll put them again: TSH - 5.290 T4 Free - 0.970 Vitamin D - 11 Platelets - 124.0 Ok so the dr told me sometimes the thyroid will improve if the vitamin d improves. So I told him I'd hold off on the thyroid meds and see if the vitamin d helps. Here are my results from about ... -

ARCHIVED Something I Found Funny :)
SleepyBunny replied to SleepyBunny's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
I've dropped almost 10 lbs since going gluten free. I'm sure a lot of that was bloating. I also am trying to figure out my thyroid so I still get "c" and that makes me put on weight and fell yucky Luckily lately I've been losing weight even when I feel bloated and huge. I hate feeling that way but as long as I'm not gaining I'm ok with that. I just want... -
I've been gluten free (to the best of my knowledge lol) for a couple of months. A couple of weeks ago I started thinking of something I used to say. I've had a "weight problem" since I was little. In my early twenties I started joking and saying I'm not overweight I'm having an allergic reaction and this is just swelling. I was predicting my future!! It...

ARCHIVED You Might Be Celiac If.......
SleepyBunny replied to AVR1962's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
You might be a celiac if... There's a stomach bug going around and you are actually jealous of the people with diarrhea. (true story lol) If you have spent $200 on food just to throw $150 of it away cos it went bad. You've told a family member they can have some of your food just to find crumbs in it the next day :/ You've told someone... -

Thanks for your replies. I've been drinking lots of water. I feel like a zombie so I'd rather have brains!!! lol Sorry I had to. The gluten made me do it lol I'll have to try the Stax cos I see a lot of people on here mention them. -
ARCHIVED Reaction To Kind Bars
SleepyBunny replied to SleepyBunny's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
They are like crack in a package lol They are so good. I keep looking for just like 1 or 2 easy junk food replacements and I keep getting sick from them. It's so frustrating. Sometimes I come home and just want something like a Kind bar or some chips to snack on. I love riceworks chips but I don't know if I can eat them. I would eat a lot of them when I... -
I found Kind bars and LOVE them. I even got someone I know eating them also. Well I was eating like 2 a day and started noticing that I didn't quite feel right. I think I had been glutened by other stuff at the time also. So I started eating somethings that were ok. Well I started feeling great Then I made the mistake of eating a Kind bar and a Larabar...

Hello I've been gluten free for a few months now. When the dr told me to try the diet he also told me to try not eating dairy well casein also. When I first started I had a gluten free tv dinner that had dairy but I don't really remember reacting to it. I didn't want to push it so I only did this maybe one other time just to see. Well a little over a week...

ARCHIVED This Sounds Crazy I Know :(
SleepyBunny replied to SleepyBunny's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
No he didn't test me for Hashimotos. But he said that I guess sometimes after taking vitamin d for a while my thyroid could improve. He said if I start taking thyroid meds that my thyroid will expect it and not do it's job. So I told him I want to try taking the vitamin d for a couple of months and see if that helps. If not then I guess I'll try thyroid meds... -
ARCHIVED This Sounds Crazy I Know :(
SleepyBunny posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Well I just got back from the dr and he said based on my blood work I don't have Celiac. I'm actually pretty upset by this. Even after reading tons of stuff on this site saying this could happen I still feel like I was punched in the gut when he told me that. I've felt like crap for as long as I can remember. Sleeping a lot, acne, "c", brain fog like nobody... -
Thank you so much!! I was wondering if withdrawal could be it too. Maybe that's it. I know I have to give it time. I've just been feeling like this for so long and am happy to finally know what might be causing it. I'd tell my dr about how I was sleeping all the time and he prescribed a med they give to people with narcolepsy (Provigil). Luckily the insurance...
