My psych had me split the dosage on my celexa to half a tab in the am and half in the pm. I still had the stomach cramps and diarrhea this morning. But I also had them after eating lunch today too. I'm wondering if its something I'm eating causing this. In the morning I have a cup of coffee with a tablespoon of raw honey and a tablespoon of coconut oil...

Thanks for your responses. I do not have hashimoto's. I had my thyroid removed in 2005 due to cancer. Had my levels checked in February and they were good. I don't really feel like I'm hyper. No anxiety, fast heart rate, shakiness. I put in a call to my psych to see if it could be my other meds so we will see.

I tested negative for celiac through blood and biopsy. However my dr also ordered a barium small bowel X-ray and the results showed segmentation indicating malabsorption suggesting possible celiac. So I stayed gluten free. I'm currently at a week and a half on the paleo diet and have felt great. Until the past 3 days. About an hour after I take my morning...

I'm awaiting my test results but have gone gluten free in the mean time. I've been putting soy milk in my coffee in the mornings and have noticed that after I drink it it feels weird when I breathe. Like my lungs are coated. I don't know how else to describe it. Also the insides of my ears got really itchy one morning after I used it in my coffee and to...

I'm new so I'm still learning. I'm also going through testing. Someone on here told me one slice of bread a day is enough gluten for testing. Of course we are all different and that could be too much. Maybe someone more experienced has better advice. That's just what I was told.

Friday I had a barium small bowel X-ray series. I had one in 2011 after hospitalization with an illeus. That one was normal. This one showed larger than average amount of feces in the colon, segmentation of the barium column which is suggestive of malabsorption diseases, and mucosa with a moulage appearance. The report says celiac should be suspected. I have...

I'm currently in the process of revamping our diets. I'm doing it slowly so that we can adjust without too much rebuttle from the four kids in our house, one of whom is autistic and eats constantly. Anyway, this post is about my step daughter. My husband and I got married in December and they moved in with me. SD has always had constipation issues. Complaining...

Ha! He probably should be tested. Thank you for the suggestions. I will have him talk to the dr. And if I need to, take him back to court.

I've posted on this forum about my two oldest children and their symptoms and mine. I had a doctor's appt scheduled for all 3 of us to see the doctor and inquire about testing. However, my symptoms were getting a lot worse and I knew I would consume most of the doctor's time so I changed the appointment just for me. My doctor referred me to the clinic's surgeon...

No the package didn't have a statement about possible cross contamination. I didn't eat a lot. More than 4-5 though. Maybe 10 or 15. I'm not sure I want to try almonds again anytime soon. I do not want to feel this way! Yuck! Thanks for the info about nuts.com

Thank you. I wondered about gluten. I bought this bag at Aldi. The ingredients list almonds, and salt. I just assumed it was ok.

Kind of new here. My biopsy is next Thursday. I think I may have another food intolerance to almonds though. I love them and have been taking them to work for a snack. Well, I've noticed the past few times I've eaten them I immediately get stomach pains. I just attributed it to feeling bad in general and really didn't think any more of it. Well today I ate...

So apparently I was wrong about it not being my bs. I felt tons worse so I tested again and was at 43.

I cut out gluten since Wednesday and have seen some improvement in symptoms already. Most noticeably in the bathroom. . I usually have 3 cups of coffee in the morning with no problems. However this morning after just two cups I got dizzy/lightheaded, upset stomach and headache. I put sugar and half and half in my coffee. I've done this in the past with...

Well I had my appt with my PCP. I told him I had a big list of symptoms but my most prominent ones are muscle pain, forgetfulness/memory loss, hypoglycemia, and lightheadedness upon standing. I then told him that 3 days ago I decided to avoid gluten and as many processed foods as possible. He said it did sound like a food intolerance. But he said he doubts...
