ARCHIVED Mercury Toxicity?
jamiecasabellameeks replied to jamiecasabellameeks's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Yes...I said I have seen a doctor in Nashville. I also have a friend who is a dentist in Colorado that is going through the same thing. I ordered the mercury test her naturopath suggested and am going to take it from there. I was just curious if anyone else had similar experiences...I am here to tell you it is not gluten though...I do not think I could be... -
ARCHIVED Mercury Toxicity?
jamiecasabellameeks replied to jamiecasabellameeks's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
The dentist did use proper precautions. I also have many of the symptom of yeast overgrowth and candida...which apparently go along with mercury toxicity? I am not doing the chelation (sp?) I'm taking multiple supplements, along with IMD (intestinal metals detox)... -

Just curious...if you have a lactose intolerance but have not had it in 3 days...should you still feel sick from the effects of the LAST time you had it? Like still nauseous etc...(do I even make sense lol?) -

It's been years since my gallbladder was checked...It was fine the last time, though. I have not had f/u upper endoscopy. -

I have been tested for Lupus...when I first got tested for Celiac...but none of the others...I'm not sure I have any of the other symptoms? My current symptoms are fatigue after eating anything, daily nausea, joint pain all over, abdominal cramping... -
ARCHIVED Mercury Toxicity?
jamiecasabellameeks replied to jamiecasabellameeks's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
I have been to one doctor who has directed me toward a similar path...Honestly, I live in NE Mississippi...We do not have many doctors around here that truly understand these types of conditions...I was actually the first Celiac patient that my doctor had encountered...this has always been discouraging for me..: -

I did eat tilapia...maybe 2-3x/month...Since deciding to try this detox I have stopped. If you start reaching mercury toxicity and amalgam fillings...it is really is crazy the research that supports them having a negative impact on your health...physically and neurologically... -
Hey guys! I have not been on the forum in forever! I was diagnosed with Celiac in March 2013. I was feeling better for a while with the gluten-free diet. However, now I have all kinds of crazy symptoms despite my carefulness to remain gluten-free. My symptoms point to mercury toxicity. A dentist friend of mine who lives in Colorado lead me in this direction...

ARCHIVED Well...it's Been A While, But I'm Miserable :(
jamiecasabellameeks replied to jamiecasabellameeks's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Hey I haven't been tested for deficiencies in approx 2 months, but I was still a little vitamin D deficient at that time...it's just so hard to pinpoint everything, which is so frustrating...and non-Celiacs just don't understand...I'm dealing with that too. I do have a doc I'm seeing...but I am his first celiac patient. Awesome! NE Mississippi is quite behind... -

jamiecasabellameeks posted a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Okay, so it's been a while since I've been on here...mostly because I have been feeling good until the past couple months...So, here is my story, and I'm hoping someone can help...I was diagnosed via blood work then biopsy in February 2013. I've been gluten free since biopsy...with the exception of accidental glistenings and CC. After approximately 2 months... -
ARCHIVED Need To Vent About My Own Stupidity!
jamiecasabellameeks replied to jamiecasabellameeks's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Oh, I definitely mourn the loss of all my fab foods! For breakfast, I used to eat cereal, donuts, or muffins! For lunch I ate subway EVERYDAY! For dinner, I ALWAYS had bread!! Just knowing I can't have these anymore make me pretty sad sometimes...or going to the mall and not being able to eat in the food court with everyone else. All of that sounds silly... -
ARCHIVED Celiac With Itchy Legs - No Rash
jamiecasabellameeks replied to msmissydb's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I have itchiness in my legs, too! It's an itch that just seems to take over and nothing will help!! I don't get it all the time...I do notice it more after a glutening. For instance, yesterday I made a HORRIBLE mistake and ate something that had gluten (I wasn't aware)...Last night, the itching was out of control. Heat seems to help! I think it's somehow... -
ARCHIVED Need To Vent About My Own Stupidity!
jamiecasabellameeks replied to jamiecasabellameeks's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I agree! I'm trying to think of this as a lesson learned, but I know I'm going to have a rough few days ahead of me...Not looking forward to that at all. -
ARCHIVED Need To Vent About My Own Stupidity!
jamiecasabellameeks posted a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I'M NOT SURE IF THIS IS THE RIGHT PLACE TO VENT, BUT HERE I GO!! I have been gluten free for almost 3 months and have been feeling better than ever (with the exception of illness from CC a few times). This morning, I go to the gas station and decide I want beef jerky (the very LARGE bag, just to be clear). I don't know why I wanted beef jerky for breakfast... -
Thank you for your comment! I think at the beginning of this I thought I wouldn't be one of the "sensitive ones"...I'm starting to feel otherwise now. Like tonight, my husband's family cooked dinner...Of course, I couldn't eat a thing and DIDN'T! BUT...my 3 kids DID! Despite thorough hand-washing and trying to not touch anything, I feel HORRIBLE! I just...

I do have a diagnosis from my GI doc. My GP is actually the one who referred me for testing, but even he admitted that he didn't know much about it. I was referred to a dietician. I felt like I found more on google and was more prepared for the meeting than him. He has actually only worked with one other Celiac. My family members (who have symptoms and...

Hi, everyone!! I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease approximately 1 month ago, and I have been gluten free 1 1/2 months! I really do feel a lot better but still not "normal". I know and understand that it takes a WHILE for your body to heal from all of the damage. I am trying to be patient, but I really do feel that I have some intolerances to other foods...

ARCHIVED 1 Month Gluten Free...was Feeling So Good! Not Today...
jamiecasabellameeks posted a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Okay, if anyone could tell me his/her experiences, I would appreciate it!!! I love sweet tea! Really, that's probably an understatement...I AM OBSESSED SWEET TEA!!! Does anyone else have issues when they drink tea??? If not, maybe gluten is sneaking in somewhere else!!! ALSO...what are your experiences with McAlister's Deli!!?? All I ordered was... -
ARCHIVED How To Tell The Boss...suggestions?
jamiecasabellameeks replied to jamiecasabellameeks's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Thank you for responding! I have only missed work once from being "glutened". I think it must have been cross-contamination, because I have not INTENTIONALLY eaten anything with gluten since my biopsy. I am starting to see the light for sure! I just honestly get tired of explaining myself over and over. I just wish I could say "Here, read this!" It's so... -
ARCHIVED How To Tell The Boss...suggestions?
jamiecasabellameeks posted a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Hi, does anyone else have to miss work periodically?? I just want to hear that I fall in the Celiac "norm" if you will...I do have stomach "issues" for sure, but that does not seem to be what DEBILITATES me. My worst symptoms are dizziness, nausea, brain fog, sudden depression, slurred speech, and extreme fatigue/weakness that seems to immobilize me. I... -
ARCHIVED Biopsy Confirmed=No Longer In Denial...please Help!
jamiecasabellameeks replied to jamiecasabellameeks's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I do have another question for SOMEBODY??? I know it's very probable that 1 out of my 3 kids has Celiac. If I remove gluten from my home, do I need to remove it from their lives completely? Like at daycare, everything?? Because won't they be more sensitive to gluten after primarily removing it??
