Feeeling Worse Sooo Much Worse

I woke up this morning and literally couldnt move out of bed from exhaustion. I am sooo tired, my eyes keep closing. I got 11 hours of sleep and I feel I havent slept for weeks. I didint have a BM this morning so my stomach is sore. I had bad gas pains last night, but the have subsided somewhat. Just had a BM, tiny, absouloutly tiny.     All day my eyes have been really dry, and i had dry itchy skin too. I went to Lob.'s today and came home exhausted. I was soo tired i needed to lay down in

I had an uncomfortable bowel movement this mornign that left me feeling drained. Yesterday was brutal too. The fatigue is becomingunbearbale, I almost fell asleep in the grocery store. Dinner sucked too last night, had some fish and veggies, felt like I was gonna vomit. I am doggone ( this is not my word, but the stupid editors on this

I Hate My Life, I Want To Move On And Feel Better.

This morning I woke up feeling slightly tired but not too bad. I did a few stretches to help wake my body up. I had an ok bowel movement after waking, which was a suprise because i havent done that in a while. I was actual "hungry" this morning, so i take that as a good sign. I had rice toast with eggwhite, becel and strawberries. I feel bad right now. After I eat I get horrible head aches, liek someone is squeezing my head together. My eyes hurt too. I am very exhausted right now, which happen

Its Been 1 Week On gluten-free Diet

I have been on the gluten free diet for 1 week now. Overall my symptoms are slightly less severe, but still hard to deal with. My appetite for food has become almost not existant. Nothing is appetizing. I feel ill after eating still, yet definatly not as horrible as 1 week ago, while still eating Gluten foods. My most horrible symptom right now is horrible pressure headaches after eating, expecially in the evenings. My energy really dips after eating. If my energy is low before eating, I feel e

Maintaining Diet While Traveling

First time blogger here!   Anxiety while traveling is a real diet killer.   Let me set the background of that previous statement. As an exercise buff (pardon the pun) and weight conscious working girl with celiac sprue, maintaining a slim figure is the one solace that helps me deal w/and accept my celiac sprue (and soy/casein intolerances.)   Perhaps the fate of a life of extremely limited food choices, makes it easier for me to lose weight (something I feel entitled to after being diag

Another Entry

Yesterday was a bad day. I had horrible digesting problems. Indigestion and pain in my stomach. I always feel awful after eating but yesterday i felt worse after I ate. I ate soem chicken and salad and about 1/2 hour later I almost doubled over in pain. The pain was like someone was pulling my intestines and pour hot vinegar on open wounds. The pain was sharp achey and "raw". It was really bad. However, I do not think I was glutened. I think it was just my body trying to digest the food. I d

First Entry, Symptoms, Feelings, Frusterations,etc

Hi,   This is my first entry.   I planned that yesterday was gonna be my first entry but, I felt so bad that i could barely type. I was sooo exhausted and I ached in every bone and muslce on my body. It was kinda scary not being able to get out of bed due to sheer exhaustion. I believe I was GLUTENED!!!!!   The day before yesterday, i felt alittle different, not better just different. It was my first day on a gluten free diet. My energy was and still is low but it seemed different two

Vision & Scleroderma

I cannot believe how dumb I can be at times. I noticed AGAIN that the next to last posting was not published and so I click on the mouse and publish it. Now my last blog is further down the line. I think I did this once before. I hate when I do something like this without thinking it through.   My vision has been really bad on and off today. When it is a little better, I then pick up the book I am reading and hold it about 6 to 8 inches from my face. But at least I can read. Yesterday m

Celiac Doctor Says He Has 100% Cure!?

Hello, This is my first time using a forum and hope I get it to work.   Question...Is there a CURE for Celiac disease?   There is a doctor advertising on this site. His name is Dr. Skip Snow. He says, in his site that he can and does cure Celiac disease, as well as other diseases.   It will cost me a lot of money, that I don't have, in order to try him.   Has anyone had any experience with him? Any success or failure to report?   Thanks, Bob

Long Time...

Wow, between this, Livejournal, Myspace, and other internet toys, I really haven't been on here. I figured I'd drop a few lines.   The only thing I miss now that I'm a Celiac is the quickness and convenience of meals. That is, only when Thai Kitchen and other gluten-free packed food isn't available. I miss Krispy Kremes and Combos, badly. I wish that cooking breakfast and lunch didn't take so freaking long. It takes me almost an hour to cook, and when one of my friends asked my roommate where

Diagnosis

I have to say it's been interesting, as well as painful. This is not the worst thing that could happen to a person, but it is oddly inconvenient as I'm frequently on the road. Because of this being gluten free will be a challenge. I have had the most common syptoms for aproximately six years, but I suspect that I have had celiac disease for a much longer period of time. Frequent childhood illnesses, vaque allergies lack of energy. I have been trying to maintain a gluten-free diet since bei

Vision, Scleroderma, Google & Brain Fog

Yesterday was kind of a cruddy day. I did some errands in the morning and on the way home I noticed that I could not see the signs very well. And when I closed my left eye, my right eye vision was all blurred. I got home and my husband said to call the eye doctor. They wanted me in within 30 minutes which really upset me. They were concerned about the possiblility of a detached retina. I had had one in my left eye in the late 60's or early 70's (what does my memory know LOL) and I can tell

January 16, 2006. Day One Again.

dang. I had gluten last night. That really aggravates me not only for my intestines but for my RA. Now I have to start all over with today as Day One.   Today is a strict vegan, gluten-free day!

constipation is getting a little better, no bleeding today! I'm still eating vegetarian. It helps with both gluten and RA. I've been eating a lot of raw foods lately, fruits, including figs, dates, raisins, bananas, and lots of carrots, cucumbers, celery. I'm still very fatigued this week. I got the ok to lower my MTX to 6 a week instead of 7. PA said I was having a bad reaction to that high of a dose. She also thinks I'm anemic so I'm going in the first week of February for a blood tes

yesterday turned out well. I had rice, carrots and cucumbers for dinner last night. Today I have a really bad headache, probably gluten withdrawal. I did a full qigong workout last night, felt wonderful. Today son starts his drama class for the semester so we'll be traveling and eating out. I'm going to take him to Hu Hot, they have an allergy sheet you can get that tells what has wheat, peanuts and other allergens in their foods and sauces. I'm also going grocery shopping tonight for

full day 2 without gluten. Feeling better on that front, I've been eating a lot of fresh vegetables and lean meats, pecans, raisins and prunes. My increase in mtx. is awful, I feel drugged again this week and can hardly stay awake and when I sleep, I have a terrible time waking up.   I thought about ordering a pizza for an easy dinner...duh. It's so easy to have gluten and not even think about it. I have to be much more diligent.

Blah

I wonder what else is truly wrong with me. I'm serious already, the arthritis, rib pain, mysterious stomach pain, constant flu-like symptoms, and worst of all: Jeans falling off!! If I lost weight again I'm going to scream. Maybe I should just scream anyways...

I'm feeling better this morning. I still had some pain in the right side area last night but I slept very well and don't feel as fuzzy minded this morning. Today is my MTX day so that will change   I don't have a clue what I want to eat for breakfast. I'm not even hungry but I have to eat to take my meds. If I can still function after that I think son and I will go to the zoo. It's cold so there shouldn't be too many people there; we can take our time at the exhibits and do some school

oh, what a year! I've neglected my diet for celiac disease trying to get my RA straightened out. I was bedridden much of late summer and felt awful the rest of the time. I have never been in so much pain as I've been this year. In October I finally saw a rheumatologist who gave it to me straight, either take the meds or die about 15 years younger than the 'expected' life for a U.S. female. I am now on Methotrexate, prednisone (nice weight gain ), naproxyn, folic acid and he's now talking a

Walmart Root Beer

We had our Christmas dinner on Monday the 26th this year. I am certain that I didn't have anything to eat that contained gluten, but I was sick all Monday night. The only thing questionable that I consumed was a Sam's Choice (Walmart brand) root beer. The only questionable ingredients on it's label are caramel coloring and natural flavoring. I have a call in to Walmart to find out if their root beer contains gluten or not. I really want to find out if I had a gluten episode or if it was jus

Hellllooooo!

Is anybody out there in blogland!?   I had a good gluten-free Thanksgiving. No gluten contamination. Last year I got something, still haven't figured out what it was, but it ruined my trip to see Cirque du Soliel.   Some of my family members brought some glutened foods, but I avoided them and all was A-OK. My sausage dressing was excellent this year. Remind myself next year to grind up part of the rice bread (brown and white rice) in the food processor a couple of days before and let i
