  1. Thank you all, very appreciative which helps me out tremendously
  2. Those worried thoughts come into my head whether I'm getting enough nutrients during the day by starting a gluten free. It's been a week, and I do feel pretty good. The main positive out of this is my eczema has improved and headaches have subsided. Anyway, here's what I have daily. Breakfast: 3 egg omelette w/ spinach and avocado on top. Lunch:...
  3. I did have a celiac test done and results were negative. All nutrients were at range too. Honestly, I can't remember about my thyroid test, but I think it was TSH. Guess I should ask for a full thyroid panel then. ( I just assumed a thyroid test is a thyroid test). Tried a gluten free diet and dairy free too on a few occasions to which my other symptoms...
  4. My eczema has been its worst for the last few days, where it's starting to blister and very aggravating. All tests have been negative, I've also been tested for thyroid as my brother has Hashimoto's disease and experienced the same symptoms as me, but I still have no answers after all these years. This skin condition is extremely frustrating and I've...
  5. With having negative results from taking various tests, I don't see any other option than to just stick with a gluten and dairy free diet. The problem is, I don't know if I'm getting the right nutritional values and generally sticking with the diet as I've failed most times. A little background, I have a lot of symptoms, including depression and eczema...
  6. I've made an appointment for a blood panel test for gluten, also for my iron levels which is around 2 weeks as I went a week without gluten. For now I'm back on gluten, and I noticed I got severe pains, bloated, diarrhoea from eating a Guzman and gomez burrito on 2 occasions, and also today I started getting a headache and sharp pains again from eating...
  7. For the past 2 weeks I've cut out a lot of gluten and dairy in my diet and have noticed symptoms of headaches, abdominal pains and bloating have decreased quite significantly. I still have an odd gluten or dairy intake but very small such as crumbed foods and sauces. To be honest, I'm not liking the idea of a biopsy, but I'd like to go for a gene test since...
  8. I've been off gluten for 5 or so days now, which I've noticed I haven't had any bad symptoms during this time, but I decided to buy sea salt chips as I knew they were gluten free. The ingredients where potatoes, sunflower oil and sea salt. 5 mins later I had quite painful cramps, abdominal pain. Any ideas why this happened? I just find it odd as the chips...
  9. That helps out a lot, thank you for that informative reply. I'm still getting used to this diet as I haven't gone strictly off gluten, but I've cut out fast foods, dairy and bread out as my previous diet I consumed a lot of bread mainly. About the tests, I'm not sure if ill go for a biopsy, but is a genetic test quite accurate too? I think that would...
  10. I've always had the occasional bloating, abdominal pain, gassy, stomach rumbling for yrs but I never really payed attention to it. I thought it was mostly stress related as I have social anxiety, depression and OCD. I also have chronic headaches, migraines at times, eczema on face, sometimes muscles cramps for no reason, fatigue... Mostly feeling drained...
  11. Thank you all for the replies, much appreciated. I've yet to have a nutritional test done, and never have taken any supplements of any sort. Guess that's another thing I could look into. I'll have a good look at those links and go from there. Another thing I wanted to ask is should I also cut out dairy or see if the symptoms stop by only excluding...
  12. First off, I'm sure I have a food allergy of some kind, even though I've had an allergy test and nothing came positive. I've had seborrhoeic dermatitis for 10 yrs now, but at times I randomly get bloated, gassy and sharp abdominal pains but I thought those symptoms could be stress as I have an anxiety disorder. Anyway, this week has really hit me, and...
