It’s normal to have blood in stool ? 

I had gluten intolerance but after few months it’s get worse when I cheated so the doctor said you have allergy, yesterday I ate Chinese chicken and it’s content wheat flour and my stomach really hurts me all night and when I went to the toilet I notice little blood with my stool

Bat, have you actually been tested for Celiac Disease? celiac disease is not an allergy or an intolerance but an autoimmune condition that damages the small bowel lining because of inflammation over time.

Blood in the stool is not something to be alarmed about if it is very occasional. It can simply mean a ruptured capillary from hemorrhoids or diverticular disease, especially if in conjunction with some kind of other bowel episode involving trauma to the intestines. Was the blood bright red?

It's definitely something to be concerned about, and can be caused by celiac disease. You should definitely talk with your doctor about this, and consider getting screened for celiac disease, if you haven't already. Unfortunately getting screened would mean a gluten challenge, so you'd need to eat gluten daily for ~6 weeks before the tests are done.

      Augmentin (amoxicillin) syrup

      By Sergiu2020 · Posted

      Good point. I will go to the pharmacy to ask who is the provider of this Augmentin and i'll contact them. The problem is i need to know about it very fast cuz i am already delaying the antibiotics administration. My little girl is not afraid of injections but i cannot say she likes them. It's normal. We did choose the syrup solutions because it was the easiest. Of course where there are flavors added...the mighty gluten may be present or not. Thanks a lot for your time and for the reply! 👏

      Gluten Free Daily Vitamins for Kids w/ Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      You can always just double up or triple up on whatever gluten free chewable multivitamin product you may already be using. That should cover the bases. Celiacs need the same vitamins and minerals as non celiacs, just in higher doses to compensate for less efficient absorption. Are you wanting to boost any particular vitamins or minerals? I seriously doubt you will find a vitamin product specifically designed for celiac kids. There just isn't a big enough market for such a product to provide the incentive for a company to invest in such a product line.

      Enegy level extremely low

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hi, @Sicilygirl, I had lost a great amount of weight, felt depressed, and had no appetite early on.  I found that taking Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine extremely helpful.   Doctors routinely check B12 and Vitamin D, but they fail to test for deficiencies in other B vitamins like Thiamine, because blood tests for other vitamins are not accurate measures of deficiencies.   Low Thiamine can result in depression, anxiety, unintentional weight loss, loss of appetite, and  emotional lability (quickly changing emotions and moods), and gastrointestinal symptoms (gastrointestinal Beriberi).  These symptoms of low thiamine can be easily brushed aside and contributed to other things.  The best way to tell if one is low in thiamine us to take it and look for health improvement.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  No harm, no foul for trying it.   I took a B 50 Complex along with 300 mg Benfotiamine twice a day with the first two meals of the day.  A one a day multivitamin does not provide sufficient amounts to overcome the  malabsorption of celiac disease and correct low vitamin levels stored inside cells.  The eight B vitamins are water soluble, so any extra or unabsorbed is easily excreted in urine.  The eight B vitamins work together.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  If there's not sufficient thiamine, the other B vitamins are not utilized and not stored inside cells.  Thiamine is needed for iron absorption.  Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D. We need more Thiamine when we are physically stressed by illness, emotionally stressed, and physically active.  Coping with Celiac covers all three.  Thiamine stored inside cells can become depleted within three days to three weeks.  Symptoms can change depending on how much thiamine is absorbed from your diet.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine results in an eighty percent increase in brain activity, so symptoms can wax and wane mysteriously.  The brain just thinking can use as much thiamine as leg muscles use running a marathon.  Mitochondria become sick and die without sufficient Thiamine.     Doctors aren't required to take many nutrition courses in their training period.  (Twenty hours of nutrition education out of seven years at medical schools funded by pharmaceutical companies.  Vitamins cannot be patented, so doctors cannot make money by prescribing vitamins like they make money by prescribing pharmaceutical drugs.).    I started feeling better within a very short period of time after taking Benfotiamine and a B Complex.  I also took magnesium, because thiamine and magnesium make life sustaining enzymes together.   Giving the body the vitamins and minerals it needs to function will increase your health.
