    I started a thread about my SIBO but didn't get nearly as popular as this one lol. I have so may questions and concerns about it. Originally I thought once I was diagnosed with it I'd get better on the antibiotics they gave me. I'm on my 5th day of the 20 day regimen and don't feel any better. if anything, I feel worse. On top of my usual gas and bloating...

    I've read into both SCD and FODMAPs and then found a list of foods legal and illegal on BOTH diets combined to fight sibo. And it's printed out on 10 pages in such a neat order! I'm about to follow that s$#& like a bible. I am so ready for this to be over with so I finally feel myself again!!! Cylinglady, did you or do you now have SIBO? I've been reading...

    My doctor gave me Neomycin and Rifaximin to take for 10 days each (20 days in total with 2 pills a day) I'm so happy there's finally going to be an end to this!!!

    So I finally found my answer!! The doctor I'm seeing at the Celiac Center tested me for SIBO today despite the fact that I already tried taking the antibiotic for a week a few months ago (the dose was too small she said). It tested positive immediately for large amounts of methane. I'm so happy it doesn't seem real!

    I made almond encrusted salmon (made with eggs, almond meal, and lemon juice), cauliflower with melted coconut butter, and cooked carrots

    So after being strict paleo for almost 6 months after my celiac diagnosis with no relief, I finally found my answer I took a breath test for small intestinal bacterial overgrowth today and it cmd out very, very positive. The doctor was able to tell me it was positive not even half way through the test! There's a very large amount of methane, which explains...

    There's a flour I use for everything and it's the perfect substitute for regular flour. Baking gluten free is exactly like baking with gluten containing flour. It's called "Namaste Foods Perfect Flour Blend" It's a mixture of sweet brown rice flour, tapioca flour, arrowroot flour, sorghum flour, and xanthan gum. Literally you can just use this in replace...

    WHy do people keep saying "3 weeks" Ive been gluten free, and paleo for five months! And I feel WORSE
  9. AnnaChristine18
    3 weeks? I said FIVE MONTHS
  10. AnnaChristine18
    lol no obviously not a hundred But I do take a lot. I'm taking a supplement caleld DIgestive Advantage Constipation formula which helps me stay somewhat regular. I take a fish oil pill. A probiotic (acidophilus). Digestive enzymes with every meal. L-Glutamine on it's own, and also something called G.I. Revive powder which also contains L-Glutamine along...

    Also, uhm.. No one's heard of IgG food intolerance testing? I know it's somewhat controversal, and that elimination diets are typically what people do to try to figrie stuff out but I've already eliminated SO much and it still seems I react to absolutely everything I eat. I feel like I'm drowning. I've been on this paleo diet for 5 months and I feel...
  12. AnnaChristine18
    I've heard of that btu I haven't been tested for any bacteria or parasites or anything like that. Yet (hopefully) I've wanted to get a stool test for a long time but my GI doctor wouldn't sign off on it... (then again, she also said she doubted I was Celiac because my main symptom is constipation, not diarrhea. After the biopsy and bloodtest showed it she...
  13. AnnaChristine18
    Yes I've looked at all the "newbie" stuff back when I was frst diagnosed 5 months ago... And I've been taking l-glutamine on it's own for a few months but it didn't do anything, which is why I got the GI revive supplement. My diet, like I said, is far more than just gluten-free. There's no cross contamination going on. There just isn't. And I did get tested...
  14. AnnaChristine18
    This was beautiful, thank you :') I love all the support I get from this website!! I just started taking a supplement I heard about from a website called The Celiac Diva, for healing leaky gut called "G.I. Revive" that has (this is a long list): L-Glutamine, glucosamine, citris pectin, licorice root, aloe vera, slippery elm, mucin, marshmallow root, chamomile...

    I do keep a food journal, and I do avoid "gluten-free" foods, I only eat veggies, fruit, meat, and nuts. And thats all. No grains or sugar or dairy or processed food asside from coconut flour (certified gluten free) I've heard 6 months is the minimum time for healing, although most people tend to start feeling better in some ways with ANY little imporvement...
  16. AnnaChristine18
    I know this was like 3 years ago lol but I stumbled on this while obsessively googling answers as to why I'm not feeling better yet and I was wondering if you could help me out? I've been gluten free and dairy free and grain free and sugar free (paleo) for 4 months after finding out I have Celiac. I'm 18 and I don't even wanna get out of bed in the morning...
  17. AnnaChristine18
    Yea I looked at that one too until I read the ingrediants. I'm taking the DIgestive Advantage Constipation Formula which doesn't contain gluten or dairy. It's the only thing that keeps me away from laxatives /:
  18. AnnaChristine18
    Thank you, I like hearing stuff like this(: ANd thank you for not jumping on the band wagon and telling me I'm getting cross contamined when I even got a blood test to prove that wrong. It's just... I'm only 17 and these symptoms appeared so suddenly. My doctor even said that the healing process would be quick for me due to my age and the minial damage done...
  19. AnnaChristine18
    I am NOT getting cc!!!! How many times do I have to say it? Some of you are very helpful, thank you for your kind and supportive words. But to those of you who repeatedly insinuate that I'm eating something wrong or not reading labels and getting cross contaminated, how many times must I say my diet is all unprocessed, minus coconut flour which is literally...
  20. AnnaChristine18
    I've said multipe times I eat a paleo deiet. NO processed foods.
  21. AnnaChristine18
    dont eat porcessed foods anyway i just said that...
  22. AnnaChristine18
    No of course not, I look at every single labe of everything i eat (and i don't eat very much processed foods) if it says anything along the lines of "Was manufactured on the same equipment as wheat" I'm not going to be stupid. It ISN'T cross contamination.
  23. AnnaChristine18
    Yes, I've been tested and my iga levels have gone done immensely yet I feel worse than when I was still eating gluten. I use coconut flour and almond flour, both are made from nothing but ground up coconut or almond.
  24. AnnaChristine18
    Are there specific digestive enzymes you could recomend? I've been taking Papaya enzymes. My nutritionist recomended them to me but they haven't helped at all. Then again, nothing's helped at all. Is there another brand that could possibly work better for me?
  25. AnnaChristine18
    So if I'm not getting cross contaminated, what could be going wrong? After 4 month I'd think I would feel just a LITTLE better at least. Also does anyone know anything about the SCD diet? I'm thinking about giving it a try
