Horrible Pain On Left Side


Mindy35

Recommended Posts

This morning I started sweating and go a horrible pain on my left side. I even felt really hot even though it was 65 in the house. Once I doubled over in pain my sister took me to the doctor. I had a blood test and a x-ray, both came out fine. Now I am wondering if I was glutened? Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Sorry you aren't feeling well!

Where on the left side was your pain? Was it lower or higher? Did you eat something that you think may have had gluten in it? It sounds like it could have been intestinal cramping, but could have been an ovarian cyst too. I have had one burst and it sounds much like you described. It would be seen by US, but if it burst, only some fluid would be in the area, the cyst would be gone.

Hope you are feeling better today!

Just another thought--diverticulitis causes lower-left abdominal pain and fever. If you are still having the pain and the fever, I would call the doctor to be safe.

      vitamin D levels in obsessive-compulsive disorder "The number of participants with vitamin D insufficient ... and vitamin D deficiency ... in the OCD group was statistically significantly higher than the control group... and also the number of participants whose vitamin D levels were in the normal range ... in the OCD group was statistically significantly lower than the control group." Low vitamin D iscommon in Celiac Disease patients. Also no lithium in drinking water (bottled water) or in areas with low ground water Lithium contributes to anxiety. Association between naturally occurring lithium in drinking water and suicide rates The EPA calculated a provisional oral reference dose (p-RfD) of 2 μg/kg-day using the Provisional Peer-Reviewed Toxicity Value   https://www.epa.gov/system/files/documents/2023-11/ucmr5-technical-fact-sheet-lithium-in-drinking-water.pdf Should we all take a bit of lithium?! Raising my vitamin D to 80 ng/ml and taking 5 mg a day of Lithium Orotate for a few month helped me.

      After 3 months without gluten he will have healed and his blood tests will be negative. That does not mean "not celiac, ok to eat wheat, rye and barley again.  It does mean the diet is working.  Many of those recently diagnosed with Celiac Disease are often deficient in vitamin D and other vitamins and minerals.  It's a side effect called Malabsorption.  Get his blood checked for 25(OH)D level to be sure.

      Yeah, but that's probably not where you want to eat, anyway.

      Anyone try this? No matter what the brand, probiotics have ALWAYS made me break out bad. I am hesitant to try this simply for that fact, but I ordered a 3 month supply. Any input would be appreciated. Wish me luck.

      @llisa, I am curious to know how much vitamin D you are taking and what is your plasma level in nmol/L or ng/ml what the doctor's target 25(OH)D is. Hopefully with the gluten free diet you'll be able to feel better.
