Yes I do, I have lots of pillows too. I can't sleep flat on my back for obvious reasons. It's not always restful sleep though as I have arthritis in my spine and sciatica caused by my spine degenerating, making the nerves in my legs very painful.

I have not dared to have any gluten free codex wheat starch as I've always been sensitive to wheat. I have recently been eating a cereal with flax in, and I did wonder whether it could be that, but I've wondered about a lot of things. I am keeping a food diary to see if it highlights anything. It's very odd putting dextrose in salt, not heard of that before...

I was checked for H.pylori a while back and it came back negative. I can't eat anything after my evening meal as I have a hiatus hernia and it would cause problems if I ate at bedtime. I think I've seen a wrist watch glucose monitor in UK, will check out the prices. It may be possibility it's CC even though I'm careful, I've spoken to Coeliacs UK today...

Thanks, you've more or less confirmed my own suspicions about food allergies although I still can't tolerate dairy products and don't eat them. I did wonder about soya products and I've just recommenced my food diary that I started before being diagnosed Coeliac. I have just purchased some probiotics (gluten/wheat/dairy free/soy free) so I've got my fingers...

I'd like to add something to original post.... Have you ever had a throat infection where your throat feels sore, swollen, throbbing and itchy and wish you could put your hand down your throat to give it a good scratch? Well that's what my stomach feels like right now - as well as the nausea.
-
I think the nausea was more to do with the lactose intolerance I developed about 2 years before I was diagnosed Coeliac. Although as I had so many nasty symptoms due to Coeliac it's hard to differentiate between them. At the moment my stomach feels like I've been accidentally glutened, but I don't know how, as I'm fastidious in the kitchen etc. Starting to...

Do you have any other health issues? High blood pressure etc?
-
Yes, also I think there's a wrist band you can buy that monitors glucose levels while you are asleep, don't know how much they are though. I eat beans and leafy veg etc. and of course, there's a chance that it's nothing to do with my glucose. I am restarting a food diary to see if that shows anything up.
-
It's possible. It did dip one day when I was out walking the dog, recently. It was a day I'd only had soup at lunch time with a couple of rice crackers. Night time glucose dips are harder to check on. At the moment I've got that many theories going round my head I don't know what to think anymore.
-
Yes I have and there doesn't seem to be anything too unusual. I manage my diabetes by diet alone at present, I'm bordering needing medication for it. My Hba1c tests are due this week. I have found that since I can no longer have my usual sources of fibre it's been more difficult to regulate my ideal levels.
-
Has anyone had problems with nausea even though they are gluten and wheat free. When I was first diagnosed apart from feeling constantly hungry my reflux and stomach problems vastly improved. Recently however, I have felt nauseous much of the time and stomach ache, gas etc. Also every few weeks I wake very early with an overwhelming urge to vomit and get...

Wouldn't like to say. Some people get worse before they get better. Others improve straight away, others struggle with puzzling symptoms for a long time, while their gut heals. It's a dilemma deciding whether to go gluten free without a test. You are the best judge of that. If you do decide to get tested, you will need to be eating gluten for at least 6weeks... -

I take your point about intolerances occurring through eating something regularly, as once your reach your tolerance max level you have a problem. There are other problems that can arise from messing about too much with your diet. Many years ago my daughter had a VEGA test to see if she had any intolerances as she had very bad eczema. Her younger sister... -

Bartful, I was referring to the fact that they were taking her daughter off gluten even though she has not had any signs of having a problem with it! I definitely think there is a problem with her own health, perhaps I had not phrased it properly or you had not read the post right through. -

To be honest with you, I don't think anyone should give up eating wheat/gluten unless they know they have a problem. Coeliacs don't have a choice. Why make problems for yourself if you don't need to? I can understand it if someone has been tested and knows they have a problem with either Coeliacs or wheat/gluten intolerance. You and your husband are at liberty... -

ARCHIVED Other Intolerances Linked To Gluten
flowerqueen replied to WilliamMTurpin80's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
I agree with the previous comment - everything seemed to be covered in the reply. I have been off dairy for the same reason for a year and a half and still can't eat it - although I was only diagnosed with Coeliacs last November following a biopsy. I really believe that everyone is different and shouldn't necessarily compare yourself with others as we all...
