I was diagnosed a number of years ago but recently I've started to get dehydrated often and alot of dry skin especially around eyes and ears. Also when I overheat I get a tingling feeling all over my body, sometimes quite painful.

Has anybody had similar problems and what remedies do you suggest 

Cheers Rich

Hi @Richard1973 and welcome to the forum.

I did go through a period of feeling thirsty all the time and my first thoughts went to asking my GP to test me for diabetes.   Have you had a test for this condition as if not I think that would be the first thing to rule out?  

If you were suffering from diabetes, either Type I or Type 2, I've read that can cause dry skin and paresthesia.

@Richard1973, welcome to the forum! 

@cristiana is on the right track, stay hydrated. 

Also have your potassium level checked.  Low potassium causes dry skin and dehydration.  

We need Thiamine B1 to keep our potassium level correct.  Without sufficient thiamine, we lose potassium and our skin loses moisture.  

Ask your doctor about supplementing with vitamins and minerals.  The Gluten free diet can be lacking in the eight essential B vitamins, Omega Threes and minerals.

      Celiac And Eggs

      By MommaBear82 · Posted

      I just wanted to point out that the QUANTITY of exposure to eggs in baked goods would naturally be much less than if you were to eat a whole egg. I think that's why they appear to be tolerated in baked goods, but not as a stand-alone food.

      What should I do with these test results?

      By trents · Posted

      I would agree. The tests do not indicate you have celiac disease. So, if you are convinced that when you eliminate gluten from your diet your symptoms improve, I would conclude you have NCGS.

      By Jack Common · Posted

      My old results are: The Tissue Transglutaminase IgA antibody - 0.5 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests 0.0 - 3.0 is normal) The Tissue Transglutaminase IgG antibody - 6.6 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests 0.0 - 3.0 is normal) Immunoglobulin A - 1.91 g/l (for the lab I did the tests 0.7 to 4 g/l is normal) IgA Endomysial antibody (EMA) - < 1:10 titer (for the lab I did the tests < 1:10 titer is normal) IgG Endomysial antibody (EMA) - < 1:10 titer (for the lab I did the tests < 1:10 titer is normal) Deamidated gliadin peptide IgA - 0.3 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests 0.0 - 6.0 is normal) Deamidated gliadin peptide IgG - 46.1 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests 0.0 - 6.0 is normal)   Then I didn't eat gluten for six months and after I started a gluten challenge. Before the challenge I did some tests as RMJ had suggested to do. My results: The Tissue Transglutaminase IgG antibody - 0.5 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests < 20 U/ml is normal)) Deamidated gliadin peptide IgG - 28 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests < 20 U/ml is normal)   As trents suggested I ate 6 slices of wheat bread before the tests during the challenge. My results: The Tissue Transglutaminase IgA antibody - 2.0 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests < 20 U/ml is normal) The Tissue Transglutaminase IgG antibody - 2.0 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests < 20 U/ml is normal) Immunoglobulin A - 1.31 g/l (for the lab I did the tests 0.7 to 4 g/l is normal) Deamidated gliadin peptide IgA - 2.0 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests < 20 U/ml is normal) Deamidated gliadin peptide IgG - 2.13 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests < 20 U/ml is normal)   As I can understand I don't have celiac disease.

      Global Food Gluten Free Certification

      So it sounds like Global Foods has adopted the FDA standard for "gluten free" advertising.

      Global Food Gluten Free Certification

      By cvernon · Posted

      Agreed, I am disappointed in the recent GFCO findings as well and definitely don't hold them in as high of a regard as I used to. I did find on the Global Foods website after posting that their required ppm limit is 20ppm, which isn't as low as I had hoped. I'll email and report back. Thx.
