ARCHIVED Sore Lymph Nodes?
anonymous-123 replied to PRG's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
funny you should mention this......i used to get that in the same exact areas. i am not diagnosed by a dr as having celiac (negative blood results), but i believe that i definitely have some sort of intolerance as my symptoms indicate gluten/wheat intolerance. in any case, after changing my diet, i no longer get the swollen lymph nodes. i did have my dr... -
ARCHIVED Swollen Tongue
anonymous-123 replied to Leis's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
i was told by my dr that if i ingested something that caused my allergic reaction, to take pepcid as it also works like an antihistamine in the gut. but i'm not sure if pepcid is gluten free or not. i only took it when i had my huge hive breakout and stopped taking it after that. now if i have gut issues i just drink peppermint tea and tums or lemon... -

ARCHIVED Swollen Tongue
anonymous-123 replied to Leis's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
the tongue swelling happens to me usually a day or two after i eat pasta, bread, or beer. but i'm not sure if that's your cause b/c you said you went gluten free. it could be a different food that isn't agreeing with you. when i tell my dr's about my swollen tongue they look at me like i'm crazy and i'm making it up and i've told the emergency room at... -
ARCHIVED Peppermint Tea & Tums
anonymous-123 replied to anonymous-123's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I relate the hives and tongue swelling to ingesting gluten, wheat products, beer, etc. Seems to happen after I eat pasta, breads, and sometimes other foods that tend to bother my stomach. -
ARCHIVED Peppermint Tea & Tums
anonymous-123 posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Hi All, My experience recently has been that having a cup of peppermint tea, zyrtec, and then a tums before bed helps alleviate tummy issues and sinus congestion at bedtime. The zyrtec is to control my hive breakouts. I don't do all these things at the same time. I space it all out in a couple hours before bed. I believe it also helps with my occassional... -
ARCHIVED Silk Almond Milk
anonymous-123 replied to jebby's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
i bought the silk almond milk and it didn't really agree with me for some reason, maybe it is one of the ingredients that bothered me. -

i know the peanut butter granola bars my husband purchases give me major stomach bloating. i can't tolerate them at all. i didn't want to eat gluten again either after i started to feel better for my bloodtest, but i got the tests done anyway. everything came back normal. i'm just sticking with what makes me feel well.

ARCHIVED Questions.....
anonymous-123 replied to anonymous-123's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
how long did it take you to come off the antihistamines? i hate taking them everyday, but i do for itchy skin and hives. how did you know when you could officially stop taking them? i never used to have any seasonal allergies at all. now everything bothers me and even dust. it's very frustrating. thanks. -
ARCHIVED Questions.....
anonymous-123 replied to anonymous-123's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Thanks everyone for the detailed explanation. That was a great help! I have another question: how many of you are on a daily antihistamine? I have been on daily antihistamine since my hive breakout back in august 2012. -
extemely interesting...i had never known this before. this explains why i probably always feel faint! especially after that darn detox thing i tried. i actually left work early today b/c i told my boss i felt faint. everything i am reading on this forum is really helpful! it's all making sense now.

ARCHIVED Questions.....
anonymous-123 posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
not sure if this is the correct section to post these in but i had some questions that i am hoping you all could help me out with..... what is the difference between whole grain and whole wheat? how come you can have whole grain rice or whole grain rice cakes and not react like you would if you ate something whole wheat? are they completely different... -
i didn't react well to my detox/cleanse that i mentioned in my previous post, so i had to stop after four days. now it is taking me a while to recover as i am feeling very tired, dizzy, faint, sinuses are congested, muscles twitching, mental fog, etc. i am sticking to whole foods and a lot of soup/salad, veggies, nuts, lactose/gluten free cheese, fruits...

ARCHIVED The Pieces Dont Fit- Help!
anonymous-123 replied to kvtlove's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
what is it about them that causes the issue? i noticed i am ok with bell peppers. but potatoes mess me up. i think eggplant does too. i haven't payed much attention yet to how i react to chili peppers or paprika. i think tomatos are starting to bother me too. the night i broke out in hives, i had pizza, a couple beers, and some cherry tomatos from my... -
i decided to this detox/cleanse that i thought would help to clean out my gut of gluten and instead it made me worse even though it said gluten free on the box. anyway, the four days i was using the product i was having intense nightmares. i stopped using the product 2 days ago. so i'm assuming gluten or anything else your tummy doesn't like could give...

ARCHIVED Is Diagnosis Necessary?
anonymous-123 replied to uglyhen's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I am new to the site as well and am undiagnosed. I have similar symptoms which most people tend to blow off and think it's all in my head which really aggravates me. I too feel better on a gluten free diet! My bloodwork came back showing everything was normal. I'm just going to stick with the forum here, read as much as I can and learn more about it,... -
ARCHIVED Do I Have A Gluten Intolerance?
anonymous-123 replied to anonymous-123's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
k well i decided to try a cleanse/detox that i was speaking about in my thread and well i feel like crap. i did it for four days and had to stop. won't be doing that again. now it will probably take me like 2 weeks to recover. i think if i am ever going to detox, i will do it with whole foods and not a boxed supplement. it said it was gluten free so... -

ARCHIVED Do I Have A Gluten Intolerance?
anonymous-123 replied to anonymous-123's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
is whole grain rice ok if it says it is gluten free? or could the whole grain cause issues too? i'm so confused now. what about going to the dentist if i am feeling run down? i really need to get my cleaning done and i have a filling that needs to be redone, but i've been putting it off for the past two years due to feeling like crap. any advice? ... -
