Omg...i Might Be On To Something

I have not been posting much, this flu has completely wiped me out. So I haven't been to the store or able to cook, but I had to go to work (huge project) so I went and bought lunch.

Long story short... I got a veggie burger (w/out bun) instead of a plain hamburger, even after going through the order twice with the waitress.

I consumed one forkful before realizing it. The burger contained bulgar and breadcrumbs.

This was a 1pm

I was more upset than sad. I couldn't even eat anything else. Got my money back and left. Now in the middle of having the flu I am now freaking out that my digestive issues are about to go to the n power.

In a way I guess this will be a "test" as to whether or not I have celiac disease.

Any advice or time line for bodily response? (I have been gluten free for 6 months, some blood work indicative of celiac, some not, and biopsies that are "normal")

cursing like a truck driver,

Kristina

Kristina,

I'm sorry that happened. I have no idea what to expect. I usually get severly nauseated after being glutened...like within 25 minutes or so.

Paula,

I know...between this thread and now online chatting...FORGET IT! LOL! :lol:

I also got a Yahoo messenger thing...chatting with Andrea right now, but I can't see the messages at all! Wierd! If anyone wants my name...PM me.

Thanks Kassandra.

I tried to puke it up, but I just couldn't.

I feel like a messed-up Mr. Wizard experimental body.

Aw Kristina, I'm so sorry that happened to you! I don't know of much to do except drink lots of water, and not even sure that would really help.

I'm a slow typist though considering that my job is typing, lol. I tried to chat once with my little cousin...I was about 5 questions behind all the time...I finally had to tell her to STOP while I caught up answering. :P

Lol Donna! Does it allow Yahoo messenger? My dad's work used to have all kinds of firewalls but he was allowed to use Yahoo for some reason.

I am pretty fast, but I have friends who type like freakin' speedsters! :D

Here's something I found about parasites and insomnia:

"Parasites produce a great deal of ammonia as their waste product. Ammonia is their equivalent of urine and it is set free in our bodies by parasites in large amounts. Ammonia is very toxic, especially to the brain. I believe this causes insomnia and other sleep problems at night and anxiety by day."

Also I found out that wormwood (humaworm ingredient) can cause insomnia.

I can't believe it either! :o:lol: I am a big kid at heart, so I think that helps, lol. I'll be 53!

We're almost the same, Donna. I will be too...toward the end of the year though.

That's interesting Sherry.

I had thought wormwood had a narcotic effect in the body. When I was taking wormwood/black walnut complex I always felt really fatigued.

Ok since we are talking about worms i have an question, i was just talking to my mom earlier today and she said when she was a kid she had worms and they made her sit over an bucket of hot water, but that is all she remembers, would that be pin worms or something else, and she remembers she was so sick as a child and so skinny and ill and everyone felt sorry for her. This would not be sent down to me would it?

I haven't talked much about my laser, but I use it pretty regularly. You're not supposed to do the detox stuff for 8 weeks, so I have been using the other "laser balancing" stuff.

This herx was the worst I've had in a long time. I don't know why .... but the Tindamax doesn't help! It was also my first month on Rifampin, so that could have contributed, too.

Anyway, this morning I decided to do the detox one for drugs. I feel better this afternoon and still have tomorrow to go on my Tindamax. I don't know that the drug compilation helped at all, but it didn't make me feel bad.

This laser, from what I understand, works the same as LED, but there aren't as many vials to choose from.

Well, I just thought I'd give you a laser update.

Here's info about the laser

Open Original Shared Link

Some here have used LED for detoxing .... I thought I'd try this laser, which is similar and something I can do at home. I thought that if I wanted to do more serious detoxing with lasers, then I could go to someone for the LED.

Hum, I don't know, lol. I've tried a few different chat rooms, but not Yahoo or MSN. Typing...I'm extra slow because I don't know all the shortcuts...I don't text, so I'd be typing out whole words, lol.

You must be close to my good friend (the one that I always travel with, lol). I am 6 months older than she is and she never lets me forget it. :lol:

How many Theralac do you take in a day? We just ordered some.

And, Donna, you should have one. :)

Honestly, it's hard to tell whether I've had benefit from it or not. I know our parakeet has, LOL. That's why I wanted to start detoxing with it.

Kassandra, I take one every day.

Carla,

Okay. Thanks, I was going to ask the LLMD and still will, but I was wondering how much you took. :)

Everyone,

I was just reading on LN about nightmares and it reminded me! I had another nightmare last night!! :( I was being stabbed with a knife by these two men, but then I stabbed one back and KILLED him! :huh::lol::o Ahhh, how awful!? I don't know what the deal is with this! <_<

Hey everyone, hi everyone hi.

Well it's been 3 days, no ice cream. :D

Went for laser therapy and acupuncture yesterday. It went well.

Dr. M. says I'm going to live. That's good news huh. :)

I hate acupunture. I don't like needles at all. Some don't hurt, some do. The one he put in my labia and in my gums hurt though. Is someone else going to start to see Dr. M.? Dee was mentioning it but he says we can't talk about other patients so the

conversation ceased. I bought some dried organic apricots from him, about 3 pounds worth for constipation, some unbuffered vitamin c. Man that stuff cleaned me out today which is good I suppose.

I'm at the library. It smells sooo perfumy in herer that I can taste it yuck.

Dee was getting dizzy after the laser therapy yesterday. She had to leave the room because of all the toxins coming off my body. SHe held my hand during acupunture. Like I was having a baby or something, and my hand was sweating, she could taste my toxins. She said they taste like iron. :blink:

I will be doing ecoffees now 2 to 3 times a week. Doc wants me doing them.

Well times almost up.

Take care guys

your friend

      For years, I have dealt with various gluten related symptoms like stomach pains, bloating, IBS-C "ish" digestive issues, low iron, low Vit D, joint pains, brain fog, and more. I finally got a double scope and stomach looks clear, but I have some lymphocytosis of the duodenum. I am wondering if this sounds familiar to anyone, where I have not shown celiac...

      Does Kroger Offer Affordable Gluten-Free Options?

      Kroeger has quite a few Gluten free items. Right now they are redoing my Kroeger store and are adding everything into the regular sections. Since this was done some new ones have been added. Publix and Ingles also have great selections. I actually shop Walmart and Food City to since prices on some items vary from store to store.

Check this out:    I am also wondering if your on again/off again gluten free experimentation has sabotaged your testing. For celiac disease testing to be valid, one must be eating generous amounts of gluten for weeks/months leading up to the test.

      I’m so sorry you’re going through this—it sounds like you’ve been on a really challenging journey with your health. Your symptoms (stomach pains, bloating, low iron, joint pain, brain fog, etc.) do sound like they could be related to gluten sensitivity or another condition like non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS). It’s interesting that your bloodwork hasn’t shown celiac markers, but the lymphocytosis in your duodenum could still point to some kind of immune response or irritation, even if it’s not classic celiac disease. The fact that your symptoms improved when you went gluten-free but returned when you reintroduced gluten (especially with the donut incident) is a pretty strong clue that gluten might be a trigger for you. It’s also worth noting that symptoms can be inconsistent, especially if your body is still healing or if there are other factors at play, like stress, cross-contamination, or other food intolerances. Do you have more info about your blood test results? Did they do a total IGA test as well?

I finally got a double scope and stomach looks clear, but I have some lymphocytosis of the duodenum. I am wondering if this sounds familiar to anyone, where I have not shown celiac red flags in bloodwork IGA tests. WIll be following up soon with GI Dr, but so far, my symptoms are intermittent. I go back and forth with gluten-free diet (especially this past year.... did two tests where the stomach pains I had went away without gluten in diet. HOWEVER, I added it back a third time and I didn't get the pains)   Anyway, I am so confused and scared to eat anything now because I recently had a few bites of a yeasty donut and I immediately got so sick. Any thoughts??
