ARCHIVED 6 Months For Me Today
StephanCasey replied to beth01's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I'm just 3 weeks in and pleasantly surprised with the results. Especially with my energy levels and the fact that I actually feel nourished by food. In a sense that I am gaining weight and I feel for once in my life that I actually need to control what and how much I eat because it controls how much weight I gain/lose. Contrary to popular belief, it's... -
Yeah. I suppose I'll just wait it out and see what happens. I was just wondering if anyone has had a similar experience. I suppose I haven't had much of an attraction but I definitely have been attracted to guys. Not so much girls but I feel like that is changing. If this could be the case it's not necessarily a case against homosexuality at all. It would...

I've been gay my whole life as far as I was concerned. I have been gluten-free for about 3 weeks now and I've noticed that my physical attraction may be changing. Has anyone else experienced such a thing? I'm not intolerant of gays or suggesting that every gay person is just ill but do you think it's possible to think that you are gay because of how celiac...

ARCHIVED Did Your Teeth Get Any Better With Recovery?
StephanCasey replied to StephanCasey's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Yeah. I can imagine a deficiency in iron, calcium, etc. would cause issues with teeth, enamel, etc. but I was hoping this was something that would fix itself with those nutrients -

ARCHIVED Could My Shingles Have Been Dermatitis Herpetiformis
StephanCasey replied to StephanCasey's topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis
It was pretty itchy and all the time while I had it but I think it's hard to say because it was quite a small rash. Not that small. The bumps weren't very small but it only covered a small portion right at the side of my forehead. Also it went away in about a week and I haven't gotten it since but I'm worried that later on in life it will come back worse... -
ARCHIVED Could My Shingles Have Been Dermatitis Herpetiformis
StephanCasey posted a topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis
I don't know if I have celiac but I want to get tested. About a year and I half ago (I was only 17), I got a bit sick and then after a few weeks I got these blistery things on the right side of my forehead (my right, your left). I went to a clinic and the nurse looked at it and said it looked like shingles. So I went to a doctor and told him what the nurse... -
ARCHIVED Should I Get A Home Finger Prick Test
StephanCasey replied to StephanCasey's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Yeah I think I'll be fine. I'm not in the US. I'm in South Africa and we do have them Edit: when I say fine I mean fine to take the test -
ARCHIVED Should I Get A Home Finger Prick Test
StephanCasey posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I heard about celiac and I read some of the symptoms which really got me worried then I stopped having gluten for 2 days. I know evil bad. Slap myself on the wrist. So today I started eating it again and I wonder if the finger prick test will be accurate now. Do you think 2 days is fine. The test should still work? Also how accurate is it? I don't have money...
