This Common Blood Pressure Drug Can Mimic Celiac Disease Symptoms
Wheatwacked commented on Scott Adams's article in Additional Concerns
new studies suggest this is a class effect, meaning other ARBs (such as telmisartan, irbesartan, valsartan, and losartan) can also cause this reaction. Other misdiagnoses with HLA DQ8/DQ2 links but negative blood work are Dermatitis Herpeteformis, autoimmune adrenal cortex disease, Latent Adult Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults (Diabetes type 1.5) Diabetes... -
Symptoms Dismissed
Wheatwacked replied to Wheatwacked's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Chronic fatigue in the producer was the inspiration for the episode but I feel it touches on anyone that suffers and is dismissed as psycosomatic. The patient expressed my feelings elequently. In episode 2 the doctor explains the problem well. I stopped all commercial milk protein like skim milk added to processed foods and in a few days there was a... -
I found these two episodes of Golden Girls uplifting. Watch the whole thing season 5 episodes 1 and 2 if you can.

A diet equal in omega 6 and three fatty acids will lower inflammation and give your gut a chance to heal. Omega-3 and Omega-6 Content of Commonly Eaten Foods I eventually found that commercial cow protein like the skim milk used in M&M Peanuts would cause me heartburn, while I can drink all the grassfed cow milk as l like. Omega 6:3 ratio...

Library paste and paper mache. I have in passing read of wheat based glue used to glue fish tank filters together so it is not surprising they might be in refridgerator filters. Seems the issue with bottled water would be at the personal filters rather than the mass filtering. Just have to boycott the brands that effect you. Gatorade drinks all have...

Anyway, I have no problem with grass fed milk other than the price. Maybe I should move to Ireland or New Zealand. They're the only countries that don't feed grains to their cows to increase milkfat and milk volume. A side note: I just came back trom the vascular surgeon about the scan of my carotid arteries done last week. A year ago I had over ...

I can drink grass fed milk but commercial milk gives me heartburn from the cassein. Brine fermented pickles can help establish lactobacillus in his gut. They provide lactase to break down the lactose. Vinegar pickled pickles do not. inegar generally suppresses Lactobacillus by creating an acidic environment that is inhospitable to the beneficial bacteria...

@Margaret Wheatley Thank you and welcome to the forum.

Welcome to the forum @colinukcoeliac. Letting them know that they lost a customer because they could not satisfy cross contamination needs may incline them to fix that problem. It was good of tnem to alert you. The more they know...

Did they ever tell you specifically which vitamins would interfere with which tests? Fermented pickles source of thiamine and other B-vitamins, The fermentation process with lactic acid bacteria increases the nutrient value. Colonies of beneficial bacteria can help crowd out the the bad SIBO. Have you had the rash biopsied for Dermatitus Herpetiformus...

I've added NAC, N-Acetyl Cysteine; "crucial for replenishing glutathione—the body's master antioxidant." I used Clear Eyes 1% NAC lubricating eye drops for several years until the FDA forced them off the market. In 2015 I had cataracts in bofh eyes. In 2019 my left eye was clear, right eye was improved. They are back now. I discovered new companies w...

Both homemade vinegar and fermented pickles have wonderful flavors of herbs, spices and tartness. However, fermented pickles contain healthy probiotics whereas vinegar pickles do not! https://cleanfoodliving.net/fermented-pickles/

"Children who received only a few courses had a modest increase in risk, while those who received many prescriptions during their first year of life had a much higher likelihood of developing immune markers associated with celiac disease." Evidence suggests that children from lower socioeconomic backgrounds, or those with parents with lower educational...

Click on the image to make it larger. Maybe doesn't work on phone browser, That was from 2021. Absolutely, they should be tested, The point is you have symptoms that the doctors don't understand and malabsorption may be the cause. Not trying to. But much of your rant includes refeferences that may indicate multiple nutritional deficiencies...

I don't understand why you are continuing to persue a differencial diagnosis of celiac disease vs. NCGS. Once you stop eating gluten, those symtoms will go away. One less thing to worry about. You improve without gluten so you proved the point. Why beat yourself up? Without gluten you can focus on the symptoms that remain and maybe over time, with the...

Your choice. "Too much is too bad too" Yes I do think you might be iodine deficient. The intake of iodine has decreased in the US by 50% since 1970. Allowing for Celiac Disease malabsorption you are likely to be borderline on several nutrients. I tried eating kelp but lost interest after a few months in the taste and effort to prepare. Cut...

Blood results
Wheatwacked replied to Heatherisle's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Celiac Disease causes more vitamin D deficiency than the general population because of limited UV sunlight in the winter and the little available from food is not absorbed well in the damaged small intestine. Taking 10,000 IU a day (250 mcg) a day broke my depression. Taking it for eleven years. Doctor recently said to not stop. My 25(OH)D is around 2... -
Here is a link to the spreadsheet I kept to track my nutrition intakes. Maybe it will give you ideas. It is not https so browsers may flag a security warning. There is nothing to send or receive. http://doodlesnotes.net/index3.html I tracked everything I ate, used the National Nutrition Database https://www.foodrisk.org/resources/display/...

Hello @catnapt, That's so true. Every person with Celiac Disease has different symptoms. There are over 200 that it mimics. Too many still believe that it is only a childhood disease you outgrow. Or it's psychosomatic or simply a fad. Idiots. It's easy to get angry at all of them. You just have to pick at the answers until you find...
