Minor symptoms?

Dear all

The past 2-3 months since quitting wheat, I have noticed a decrease in major and minor symptoms of Celiac disease (I have not tested). 

Today I noticed something: Usually when I am riding my mountain bike, my eyes fill with water until my sight gets blurry, tears running endlessly, and they stay like that until I am back home. Today they were completely fine, only minimal water running from them. Anyone experienced this?

I've been 100% gluten free almost a year now. In my first 4 mos of navigating my foods and medications I also learned that I was eating Soy Byproducts ...I'm super sensitive to trace amounts of gluten. Also, cheeses, like whey and dairy products can be intolerable for Celiacs.

Welcome to the forum both of you! 

So there is a dry eye condition that I recall some celiacs having issues with...perhaps you were in that category? If it was related, then going gluten-free would be the best way to find out. It sounds like the diet may have helped.

      Does anyone here also have Afib

      By larc · Posted

      I don't take any medicine for Afib since it only happens after exposure to gluten. My cardiologist doesn't agree with me. My feeling is that since I get Afib and higher blood pressure after accidentally ingesting gluten if I took medicine for it it would only mask my symptoms of gluten exposure.

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.

      How many people here are aware that there are 9 types of gluten that Celiacs should be aware of?

      You might find cordyceps and reishi tincture helps, even if you identify which lectins you react to with an igg test there is still cross contamination and secondary contamination via cows and chickens that have eaten soy, I found mushroom tinctures to be the last piece of the puzzle, they stop you producing the antibodies.
