    squirmingitch. If you haven't tried it in a while you might try it again. It (Gatorade) used to have brominated vegetable oil (BVO) it and Bromine being a Halogen can bond to the same site in the skin as Iodine and thus might mimic Iodine consumption in the body. https://www.shape.com/blogs/shape-your-life/pepsico-remove-flame-retardant-bvo...

    Wheatwacked, Try taking some Magnesium Malate or Malic Acid for your Fibrobyalgia. Source Naturals has nice supplement with Magnesium Malate and Malic Acid. Nature's life has a supplement with just Malic acid in it. You are already taken Vitamin D that been shown effective in alleviating some of the effect of Fibro. Here is the Livestrong...

    Wheatwhacked, While I am not fan of acid blockers. H2 Antagonists like Pepcid have not yet been indicated in Kidney disease. It is the more popular PPIs acid reducers that are the problem for kidneys as I understand it. PPIs actually replaced H2 antagnoist (in the market) because they have higher ( and longer) acid blocking abilities and thus are...

    SJenkins, Try the generic of Tagamet .. .. Cimetidine instead. See this article by Yvonne Mostat the Confessions of a Celiac Nerd. quoting Vonnie "What??!! Dapsone was my life-line; I could never live without Dapsone! Three days without that "stuff" and the dreaded spots were back. I was referred again to a dermatologist, now fifteen...

    Mummy, I don't have your symptom's but it sounds like you have POTS. But I had a friend who had it and researched it for them. Open Original Shared Link It is most common when you get up too quickly but can be associated with sitting/lying down to. quoting webmd "Postural orthostatic Open Original Shared Link syndrome (POTS) is a...

    Stormy, You should read this thread. LilyR is reacting to Maltodexrin which is made from Corn. I also recommend you read this research from Australia that might answer some of your auto-immune questions. Open Original Shared Link Your daughter's stomach acid could be low and the doctor's don't know or think to test for it. See...

    LilyR, If you are having trouble with Corn too you need to look into/researching about Pellagra. As you know many of us on this forum have multiple maladies often at the time of our celiac diagnosis. I found I also developed Pellagra with and probably because of my Celiac condition. Here is the HouseMD episode that discusses Celiac disease...

    CholoeS, Echoing what Ennis_Tx said find a good B-Complex and Magnesium. Here is a good overview of how B-Vitamins can help our mental health. http://healthandwellnessinitiative.org/how-b-vitamins-improve-brain-health-by-dr-mercola/ I also recommend a good Magnesium form like Citrate or Glycinate. Here is a research article...

    Tee210, Like Gemini many one this board we present with multiple diseases with/on/or before receiving our celiac diagnosis. The rate of sjogrens disease in a celiac diagnosis can go as high as 15%. here is a link about associated diseases common with/in a celiac diagnosis. https://celiac.org/celiac-disease/understanding-celiac-disease...

    Tash18, I am like Plumbago, I did not have these symptom's but I did do some research on your symptom's. Some Urticaria's do present with anyphlaxis. quoting from the below link/research on some Uritcarial syndromes presenting as anaphylaxis. "Chronic urticaria can exist as an independent syndrome that does not commonly have anaphylactic...

    moleface, I agree. Niacinamide is the form to take. It is non-flushing and hepaprotective. see this link on "Protective effects of nicotinamide against acetaminophen-induced acute liver injury" european spelling https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23059795 Niacinamide also controls inflammation in the body. See this Hindwawi...

    CristiG, Have you tried magnesium it can help a lot of issues. . . especially where sleep is involved. This guy is not saying but asking is this a cure. Here is a good summary of the problem and how magnesium might help. https://magnesiumandhealth.com/narcolepsy-cure/ He sights research about it can help tourettes. Here is the...

    amyschicks, Knitty Kitty has given you good advice. Here is a good article on the reemergency of vitamin deficiencies. Easy bruising can be a sign of scurvy. http://europepmc.org/articles/PMC2567249 Here is a case report where the note that scurvy needs to be ruled out in nutritional diseases. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science...

    amyschicks, ****this is not medical advice in case I forget to say it later. I do not have bruising issues but have had friends with this issue. But I have taken most vitamins/minerals as super supplemmenter. And have taken most of the 20 odd vitamins/minerals a celiac can become low in. . .in time. And Vitamin K (assuming you do...

    bridgetm, It puzzles me too. I first thought it might be a frutan (FODMAP) issue and It still could still be. Rye has high fructan levels. https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.3109/09637486.2011.553588?journalCode=iijf20& but it doesn't answer why barley specifically causes you (less) problems. You might try a gluten free...

    Vonney, You do have many of the symptom's of a gall bladder problem. https://www.emedicinehealth.com/gallbladder_pain/article_em.htm#gallbladder_pain_symptoms You can research these tips/homeremdies yourselves but their are many home remedies to move a gall stone. Lemon Juice and some combination of juicing (other juices like Apple etc...

    Vonney, To follow up on cyclylinglady's point. It is a good one. I didn't want to overload you with too much information in one posts (which I can sometimes do because I am trying to help) and didn't see her response till I posted mine. Here is a study about the sub-types of gastritis in/with Celiac disease (and maybe NCGS which might be what...

    Vonney, If it is Gastritis try taking some BetaineHCL (powdered stomach acid) if it improves digestion then you are low in it and because the test for low stomach acid is invasive in nature (tube down nose) most people don't feel unwell enough to do it. But there is a unscientific test for it called the baking soda test that you can try at home...

    Forum Members, Has anyone else seen this new research on the Epstein-Barr Virus and it possible link to various Auto-immune diseases including Celiac disease. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2018-04-epstein-barr-virus-linked-diseases.html I will quote the whole article for easy reading as it appeared on Medical Express. It is very similar...

    Cycylinglady and Trents, I was hoping someone knew where the free citation for the full paper was but couldn't find it. I did find after posting this research a much more modern and updated research on essentially the same topic in it's full citation entitled "Chronic Gastritis in Dermatitis Herpetiformis: A Controlled Study" edited by Fasano so...

    To Forum Members, I recently was doing research in PubMed about low stomach acid and came across intriguing old research that details it's presence in/with a Celiac and DH diagnosis. see this link https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3992169 Here is the abstract in it's entirety.

    The Toking Tick, It might benefit you to read this thread they also have a Lyme issue. Don't stop taking your antidepressant but be aware some of these issues you are having with you GI can be attributed to side effects of the amtriptyline you are taking. see this drugs.com artlicle on its side effects. https://www.drugs.com/sfx/amitriptyline...

    aquaholical, If you have had a Lyme diagnosis you should be aware some antibiotics used in treatment of Lyme disease have been shown to cause/be associated with "celiac like sprue" villous atrophy. Here the very well article on it. https://www.verywell.com/villous-atrophy-562583 Doxycyline/Neomycin combinations were probably used in the...

    Ch88, I had posted this in another thread but didn't want to overwhelm IrishTwins with too much information but ASD is an associated clinical presenation in/of Celiac's. Though most people probably would say "brain fog" is more in the "Gluten Ataxia" realm probably. This article/research entitled the "Neurologic and Psychiatric Manifestations...
