    Hi, I too was diagnosed in October, I'm still not where I want to be energy- and stomachwise. So you're not the only one struggling with this. But I really can't say what's normal and what's not. Maybe you should push for further assessment just to be on the safe side.

    Seems that they´ve tested me for this These are the results: JANUARY: TSH was 1,4 (0,2-4,0) T4 was 19,9 (11,0-23,0) T3 was 5,4 (3,5-6,5) OCTOBER: Anti-TPO negative.

    Tsh was normal, is there some other test for hashimotos I should ask for? The constipation went away some days ago luckily. Trying to keep it that way now:) i think it must have been a cold because my mouth/throat seems less dry now, just hoping i wont catch another cold next time i step out of the door! Exhaustion still there though.

    I´m cutting out wheat starch entirely now, eating tortilla de patatas, omelettes, pancakes and rice for breakfast. Time to get better:) Still, the bakery claims the bread is without gluten even though it contains wheat starch. They say it is according to new standards where food has to be entirely gluten free to be called gluten free. How is this possible?...

    For breakfast I usually eat bread (with wheat starch) and gouda cheese. I drink perhaps a glass of milk containing probiotics every other day. Kan I keep the wheat starch? Have to stop drinking milk / skip the cheese?

    Hi Anti-tTG IgA has INcreased since I started the gluten free diet. Meanwhile, anti-deaminated gliadin DEcreased significantly. What does this mean?

    Thank you for the encouragement. Good to hear that it takes some time. I do some back strengthening exercises, some pushups and situps, about every other day. But its to definitively to soon to try any large muscle group exercises like the deadlift or similar. It's definitively a rough ride. I'm mot missing any vitamins according to the tests, so that shouldn...

    Do you eat carbs? If you eat only proteins you'll have less energy. That said, I'm 3,5 months on GFD and I also feel fatigued the day after exercise. Maybe you're just not 100 percent recovered yet?

    They did that end of January, antibodies had decreased significantly (halved themselves two times), and that indicates that everything is OK with the diet, according to the doctor. There MIGHT be some improvement, but it's a little early to say... I HOPE so atleast.

    TSH is normal, 1,53 mU/L. Good idea. Well, I am three months into the diet and still feel crap. My vili had marsh 3b damage but I don´t know if it's possible to predict anything by damage level. I guess you'll just have to hold out..

    I am also thirsty and suffering from dry mouth. How's yours now? Any answers?

    At first they thought I had post-viral fatigue syndrome after mononucleosis. Right before I fell ill with what seemed to be a though version of mononucleosis, I went to my GP with my stomach and gas problems. "Problems with air? Just let it out!". Easier said than done when you stay most of your day in the office or at the library. Since then I switched...

    I also read that Open Original Shared Link. But why´s sugar so bad? If it´s important to stay away from sugar, maybe I should skip chocolate, bananas and orange juice altogether? I am in a snowy location, so coconuts only come in boxes with coconut milk around here - what could I use as substitute?
  14. funkflex
    No I haven´t, but I was tested once for glucose without fasting beforehand and levels were normal then. Hopefully this is just part of the ups-and-downs of celiac recovery or just a bypassing infection in combination with celiac disease. If things don´t sort out this week I think I´ll ask for that HbA1c-test! Well, it´s not me being thorough, it...

    You might be right, after all - what do I know, I sit at home all day:-) No known deficiencies, B12, vitamin d etcetera are all normal. I have been checked for borrelia, cytomegalovirus, hiv, herpes simplex, human herpes virus 6, hormone tests are normal, anti rf and ccp negative (rheumatoid factor), ANCA/MPO/PR3 negative, anti-native dna...

    Hi! Is coconut water the same as coconut milk? Why would it be a good thing? Usually I don´t drink a lot of soda, but I do drink orange juice from time to time...

    Hi and thanks for your reply shadowicewolf! I try to go for a 15-45 min walk every day according to how I feel. I found that if I overdo it, I´m struck with fatigue. I eat some cheese because I heard most celiacs would tolerate it. Maybe I should just skip the cheese altogether? I was screened for it apparently, bloodwork shows my glucose ...

    Hi, fellow celiacs I have some questions on how this celiac thing is going to work out. Hopefully there´s someone out there with a story similar to mine: The first two and a half months on the gluten free diet, I felt crap basically. Two weeks ago I started sleeping less and being able to do more during the day. Then came this weekend and I am ...
