    Thanks for the input. My last lab for vit d was 34. On the lab range here 29 is considered deficient. Maybe it will help if I supplement
  2. Jherm21
    What is ideal for vitamin d levels? I know every lab is different for deficiency.

    Your right. Its a good idea to get a second opinion or atleast ask my doctor to truly confirm it. It seems like the body aches have gotten worse being on the diet. Ive noticed some differences on the diet that are positive but very subtle symptoms. Im super fatigue and have severe brain fog like nobodys business. Im beginning to think I need to seek a functional...

    All your input sounds great. Thanks guys! I will look into the magnesium and other vitamin levels. The thyroid hormone was causing both times I tried it (synthroid) and (armour) I had an increase in my heart rate and it was driving me nuts. I did get my antibodies checked I asked if it was hashimotos and her response was maybe maybe not?! My antibodies were...

    I was diagnosed with celiacs disease almost 2 months ago lets say, 7 weeks. I had a negative blood test and positive endoscopy. The doctor ruled out other possible diagnosis and set me on my way of gluten free living. I was also told I had hypothyroid (stopped taking the hormone for it, it was making matters worse for me. I recently went to a rhematologist...

    My cold has subsided, and I usually have shortness of breath ( doctors are still trying to figure that out) and I was having heart palps all the time then when i went off gluten that was one of the first symptoms i noticed went away. But now there back and Im assuming its the meds. I really want to fix my thyroid I know thats whats limiting me from feeling...

    I just started the Armour thyroid medication today and I am already having heart Palps and difficulty with chest breathing (which ive had before i started the medication but has gotten worse) I was hoping the medicine would help as the levothyroxine did the same effect. I have like an over nervousness about me today. And I know it is the meds. I just have...

    That makes alot of sense. I forgot my doctor did say there may be a withdraw period. Maybe that is why mine has started to subside. How long have you been back off gluten (weeks?) the human body is so interesting yet so bard to control!

    You are not alone. I just got diagnosed about a month and a half ago. This week has been the first time in a long time I have not been as light headed (knock on wood) I saw a cardiologist about my dizziness especially upon standing. He diagnosed me with orthostatic hypotension and low blood pressure. His treatment was to add more salt to the diet especially...

    Thanks for the kind words and motovation. A food journal sounds like an excellent idea!

    Ive only been gluten (and dairy free) for 6 weeks now. I can say the abdominal distention I was having is gone. No more bloatedness, the diarrhea was only active in the morning that is now becoming regular somewhat and also some constipation which could be my underactive thyroid or just hopefully my intestines healing? I have swollen lymph nodes in my neck...

    I have been on this forum for a few days with a previous diagnosis from my GI doc about a month ago. I showed up negative for the whole celiac panel. He checked all antibodies. I must sau I do not eat a lot of bread prior to diagnosis actually gave up bread itself a year ago but still treated my self to crutons,crackers, cakes and all the other foods that...

    Does anyone know if Armour thyroid medication is gluten free. Or does it depend on the pharmacy? Also does anyone know a good vitamin d vitamin to purchase (hopefully doesnt have to be so expensive)
  17. Jherm21

  18. Jherm21
    And I need something super safe to take for my cold. Normally I dontbtake anything but cough drops but its bad this time and I wanted to get rid of it sooner than later. It changes my appetite that I cant afford

    I'm getting an echo on Tuesday three years ago they noticed my pulmonary artery pressure was high. I'm super super scared about this test. I don't want pulmonary hypertension. My actual heart looked fine but it's something they are testing. When it rains it pours

  25. Jherm21
    Just wondering if anyone can tell me the most trusted brand for corn tortillas or tortilla chips? Also wondering if bettermade regular potato chips are 100 percent gluten free. I call the manufacturer but the lady didnt sound to assuring I figured I'd ask you all. One off the wall question that has nothing to do with food. Has anyone experienced shortness...
