ARCHIVED Low Testosterone
dan95 posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
i know celiacs/ gluten sensitivity can cause low testostetone but will testosterone eventually return to normal after starting a gluten free diet of gluten was the cause? -
ARCHIVED Is This Celiacs? Mystery Illness.
dan95 replied to dan95's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
no i said that i think somthing is causing the low t4, possibly celiacs. not the other way round. my results were IgA - 1.27 g/l "tissu transglutaminase IgA lev" - 0.7 u/ml i have a print out of my gps screen of all my tests, and have noticed that under my results theres some defualt note for the gp's saying " test used for screening for celiac... -
ARCHIVED Is This Celiacs? Mystery Illness.
dan95 replied to dan95's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
my tsh is fine, its the t4 thats on the low side, normal range is 10-23 mines 10, ideally it should be towards the top end of that range. i dont really think i have a problem with the thyroid itself i believe the t4 problem is being caused by somthing else.... maybe celiacs? i dont see how it could be a normal wheat allergy etc as ive been gluten, wheat... -

ARCHIVED Is This Celiacs? Mystery Illness.
dan95 posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Basically ive had this mystery illness for a couple years now and am still hurting for a diagnosis, i was tested for celiacs about 3 month ago which came back negetive (althought i was only eating gluten for 4 weeks prior to it as i tried gluten free for 2 weeks before). since then i ate gluten for about a month and then i decided to go on a healthy diet... -
ARCHIVED Should I Do The Gluten Challenge Or Not?
dan95 replied to dan95's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
thanks for the info. one more question guys, im kind of stessing about if its something else and was wondering if my symptoms actually seem like celiac symptoms or more like somthing else? i was reading about lyme disease and that has scared me a bit as my symptoms are quite similar to many associated with lymes, although lymes is quite rare in the uk... -
ARCHIVED Should I Do The Gluten Challenge Or Not?
dan95 replied to dan95's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
ok so im going to get tested some time next week which will be just before the 5th week of my gluten challenge, i know it isnt the ideal " 6 weeks+" but i cant actually wait any longer as im fed up of sitting about feeling this way, im not too sure what im going to do if it comes back negative as i have no idea what else it could be, so in a way im more worried... -
ARCHIVED White Flecks On Fingernails...
dan95 replied to a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
nah mine aren't because of nail trauma as i have lots on every nail and have had for years, plus no trauma has been caused to any of my nails, let alone all of them. I have read about it being linked to celiacs due to the malnutrition or something along those lines, but the fact i had barely any new ones come up whilst gluten free highlighted it and made... -
ARCHIVED White Flecks On Fingernails...
dan95 replied to a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Ive had these white spots on my nails for years now, but when i went gluten free for 2/3 weeks, i only noticed 1 very feint and small new spot pop up, but since ive been back on gluten for 10 days, ive noticed about 3/4 small ones start to develop already. what actually causes these spots, and is this a sign of celiacs? ive had my zinc tested before so it... -
ARCHIVED Should I Do The Gluten Challenge Or Not?
dan95 replied to dan95's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
sorry i meant go on gluten for 3 more weeks, not gluten free. and ik only a month back on gluten isnt really ideal but my gp said thats all ill need, but surely ill be atleast borderline by then if i do have celiacs, plus im not keen on waiting any longer than that anyway. im more annoyed at the fact she forgot to test me a year ago when everything else... -
ARCHIVED Should I Do The Gluten Challenge Or Not?
dan95 replied to dan95's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
thanks for the replys guys. just been to see my gp and they told me to go on gluten for the next 3 weeks which will take me to a month on gluten and then get tested. funny thing is she said she thought i had been tested for celiacs a year ago but it must of been missed. takes the mick really. -
ARCHIVED Should I Do The Gluten Challenge Or Not?
dan95 replied to dan95's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
thanks for the reply. only problem with jumping into gluten free again is that im not 100% sure if my problems lie with gluten yet and the withdrawal symptoms are putting me off. is there anyway to avoid the withdrawal? -
ARCHIVED Should I Do The Gluten Challenge Or Not?
dan95 posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Ok so basically i went gluten free for 2/3 weeks due to suspecting i have celiacs, which turned out to be a bit of a mistake as im now in a bit of a dilemma. basically i have been back on gluten for the past week as i couldn't cope with the withdraw symptoms i was experiencing but now im not sure if i should wait 6 weeks and then go and get tested or... -

dan95 replied to dan95's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Im from south west england, and its proving a bit of a struggle just getting tested for allergies through the nhs. I will look into clinics etc though in my area. Nope no stretch marks, im not overweight its just if i do put on weight it will go to my face or stomach which could be normal but im not sure. -
ARCHIVED Itching And Sweating After Reglutening Myself
dan95 replied to dan95's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
hmmm could be, the itching was kind of a one off thing though that only came about when i reintroduced gluten that night. i have been tested for most things by my doctor such as diabetes, thyroid problems plus all the other routine things but all have come back as normal. The only common thing i haven't been tested for is allergies btw im a 18 year old... -

dan95 replied to dan95's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Thanks for the replys guys. The itching etc only lasted for an hour or 2 just after i ate the gluten last night. today though my sinus and throat mucus problem seems to be worse than it was before i glutened myself yesterday and also the kind of hazey fatigue feeling seems to be getting worse, along with random yawning and sneezing. im going to eat gluten... -

i have nit yet been diagnised with celiacs but suspected i may have it due to having many of the symptoms, i had been glutem free for about 2 weeks but the withdrawal symptoms were becoming unbearable. 30 minutes after eating gluten my withdrawl symptoms had improved but ive been very itchy, sweaty, hot, sneezing along with a runny nose. obviously im going... -
