Yup, I had it all the time. I had an underlying nausea for years. Kind of like being sea sick. Sometimes it was worse then other times, but now I get it when I have had gluten. You definitely have symptoms of celiac. I also had heartburn before I found out.

I take dramamine when I feel nauseated and I think it works great.

Hi Lanie--I was diagnosed last June, but have been sick for over 20 years. For a long time, my only symptoms were nausea and dizziness. I was misdiagnosed with sinus infections because of it. I actually was anemic and Celiac. I also would get D from eating, but never connected it with anything else--I was always told, as a child, that I had a sensitive stomach. After a surgery in March of 04, I began to get constant D, numbness and tingling, worsening anemia, anxiety, depression, nausea, brain fog and terrible fatigue. I truly believe that the nausea was the first sigh of the Celiac and there was damage being done all of that time. Do you plan to be tested for Celiac? I would suggest you tell your doctor you want the Celiac panel done. If testing is not important to you, you could go 100% gluten-free yourself, give it a month, and see how you feel. If you opt for the testing, continue to consume gluten until then--you don't want to skew the results. :)

Ia m not going to do the testing just try the trial for a month. I have been researching all I can and have started getting gluten free foods in the house. I am also on Weight watchers have 10 more lbs to lose so I am trying to add that piece in.

      Travel Abroad

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Around 5 years ago I visited Tokyo, and luckily had my sister in law with me who is from there, otherwise it would have been more difficult. The bottom line is that there are tons of naturally gluten-free food options there, but you need to be able to communicate your needs to restaurant staff. Here is a gluten-free restaurant card for American visitors in Tokyo. It includes a request for a gluten-free meal and mentions common gluten-containing ingredients to avoid, like soy sauce and miso. English: Thank you. Japanese:   You can also download the Google Translate app, and besides being able to help you speak with people there about this, it has a camera app that translates Japanese text to English in your camera, so you can use it when shopping in a supermarket.

      Celiac Maybe a Possibility?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Be careful about how much B6 you take, as it can cause issues if you take too much of it over time.

      Bloodwork Help for my Teen

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Since it is such a long time away, you may want to have her go gluten-free for 2 months and see how she responds to the diet. If her symptoms go away, then that would be another indicator that she has celiac disease. Discuss this approach with her doctor, and if they want her to do an endoscopy, then she will need to consume lots of gluten--several slices of wheat bread's worth per day, at least two weeks prior to the procedure.

      Increasing symptoms after going gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      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.

      High dosage of B12 gave me life.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The one B vitamin that you don't want to take too much of is B6. Too much B9 can also lead to issues.   Vitamins and Minerals Generally Safe in Excess of Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA): Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid): Excess vitamin C is usually excreted in the urine and is considered safe in higher doses. However, very high doses may cause digestive upset in some individuals. Vitamin B1 (Thiamine): Water-soluble, excess thiamine is generally excreted through urine. It is considered safe in higher doses but consult with a healthcare professional. Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin): Water-soluble, excess riboflavin is excreted in the urine and is generally safe in higher doses. Vitamin B3 (Niacin): Water-soluble, niacin has a well-defined upper limit, but moderate excess is often excreted. Consultation with a healthcare professional is advisable. Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid): Water-soluble, excess pantothenic acid is generally excreted through urine and considered safe in higher doses. Vitamin B7 (Biotin): Water-soluble, excess biotin is typically excreted and is considered safe in higher doses. Vitamin B12 (Cobalamin): Water-soluble, excess B12 is typically excreted in the urine and is considered safe in higher doses. Consultation with a healthcare professional is advisable. Choline: While not a true vitamin, choline is water-soluble, and excess is usually excreted. It's considered safe in higher doses but consult with a healthcare professional.   Vitamins and Minerals with Potential for Toxicity in Excess of Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA): Vitamin A (Retinol): Excessive vitamin A intake, especially from supplements, can lead to toxicity, causing symptoms like nausea, dizziness, and, in severe cases, organ damage. Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine): Long-term use of high doses of Vitamin B6, typically above 200 mg per day, can lead to toxicity. Symptoms of Vitamin B6 toxicity include nerve damage (neuropathy), which can cause pain, numbness, and difficulty walking. The condition is usually reversible once supplementation is stopped, but in severe cases, nerve damage may be permanent. Vitamin B9 (Folate): The UL for Folic Acid is set at 1,000 mcg (1 mg) per day for adults. This limit primarily applies to synthetic folic acid found in supplements and fortified foods, not naturally occurring folate in food. High intake of folic acid can mask the symptoms of Vitamin B12 deficiency, which can lead to neurological damage if left untreated. This is because folic acid supplementation can correct anemia caused by B12 deficiency without addressing the underlying neurological damage. Some studies suggest that excessive folic acid intake might increase the risk of certain cancers, such as colorectal cancer, particularly in individuals who have precancerous lesions. Vitamin D -  While moderate excess may be excreted, prolonged high doses can lead to vitamin D toxicity, resulting in hypercalcemia, kidney damage, and other complications. Vitamin E (Tocopherols): Excess vitamin E is usually excreted, but high doses from supplements may have adverse effects. Obtaining it through a balanced diet is preferable. Vitamin K: Excess vitamin K from supplements can interfere with blood thinning medications and cause issues in some individuals. Iron: Excessive iron intake, especially from supplements, can lead to iron toxicity, causing symptoms like nausea, abdominal pain, and, in severe cases, organ failure. Zinc: While zinc is essential, excessive intake can lead to zinc toxicity, affecting the immune system and causing digestive issues. Copper: High copper levels, often from supplements, can lead to toxicity, causing symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and liver damage. Selenium: Excessive selenium intake, especially from supplements, can lead to selenosis, causing symptoms like hair loss, gastrointestinal issues, and neurological problems.
