ARCHIVED Two Weeks Gluten Free
vickiguerra replied to vickiguerra's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
The thing with me is I have not ever felt bad, just bloated. Eating doesn't bother me....my symptoms are not as severe as some of y'alls sound. Also I figured out last night that I obviously have been celiac since around 2003....I was having tongue issues.....no one caught it back then.

ARCHIVED Two Weeks Gluten Free

Thank you all. -
I have apparently been celiac this whole time. I got to thinking about when I first started having problems with my tongue about 10 years ago and my dentist would always talk about the villi on my tongue.

ARCHIVED Two Weeks Gluten Free
vickiguerra replied to vickiguerra's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
About 5 months ago I just bloated up out of the blue....ever since then I eat 2 or 3 bites and am so full it's not even funny. All my gastro said was..you have celiac disease and you need to talk to a nutritionist...that was it. For two weeks I have had coffee and gluten free cream. Tortilla chips, rice cakes, peanut butter, grits, cheese, rice crackers... -
and I am still bloated???

I take fluoxetine, 20 mg tablet from Par pharmaceutical. I sent them an email asking about Gluten in my medication and it is in it. Anyone one else have this problem? Thanks. -

And to a newbie like me the extremist's scare the crap out of me!

Extreme is right! I have read so much about cross contamination that I am just about ready to give it up! Make-up, lotion, soap, etc, etc! Even my medication that I am supposed to take everyday... I don't think that we will ever be completely " gluten free" it's in the air we breath!! GEEZ!

I have the fullness feeling and one time had spasms from my solar plexus around to my back, that's what sent me in to the Doc. Spasms went away but the fullness didn't. I guess I will have a definitive answer on Tuesday -

Thank you....I have already been eating sort of gluten free, which has been sucking. I will be sure and check out the thread for newcomers...... This has only come up on me in the past 4 months, one day I just was so full and hadn't had that much to eat.....just feel like a whale all the time. No offense to whales. -
