I've been on a gluten-free diet for about 6 months, started not feeling any better after awhile :( , so I went off milk products and went to Soy, I still don't feel any better, the usual running to toilet, I feel like I did before I was diagnosed with Celiac, I don't like this!, does anybody have any suggestions? :unsure:

Should I try to go off of soy and milk products (boy that would suck!)

Or go back to milk and see?

or stop eating all together!, that would solve the runs to the toilet (pardon the pun)

Help!!

Gluten Free and soon to be food free!!

My guess is that you have been getting Gluten from hidden sources.... I KNOW I KNOW!!!

I had the same problem. After 3 months of gluten-free I was still reacting (I have DH) with rash.

I was told by everyone, "you are eating things with hidden gluten" and I didn't believe them and just kept thinking what else I was "allergic" to!

Then one day I decided to be neurotic about what I ate, gluten-wise, and gave up restaurants completely for about 3 months (restaurants are a huge culprit). Guess what? I got better! Now I am very very careful about the content and hidden ingredients of everything I eat. I will eat plain lettuce in a restaurant that I don't know how they cook or that doesn't seem to understand my gluten needs (lack thereof).

Eliminating and re-introducing foods too fast usually just confuses your body and you won't know WHAT you tolerate or don't.......

Have you had tests for Lactose, dairy, soy, etc. intolerance?

I would get really really neurotic about gluten-free first for about 3 months and then eliminate one food at a time for at least 6 weeks and then wait a while before eliminating another.....

What a pain, I know.

      Celiac or Addison's complications? Can someone share their experience?

      By trents · Posted

      Scott makes a good point about the prednisone. It has a general suppressing effect on the immune system. Don't misunderstand me. In view of your husband's several autoimmune afflictions, it would seem to be an appropriate medication therapy but it will likely invalidate endoscopy/biopsy test results for celiac disease.

      I also want to mention that using prednisone would likely also make the endoscopy results invalid. This steroid will cause gut healing and could mask the damage caused by celiac disease.

      Bitters for digestion?

      This sounds to me like histamine intolerance. Some foods have more or less histamine. processed or aged meats, fermented food like yoghurt or kimchi and bread (yeast), spinach, eggplant and mushroom are high in histamine. Other foods like tomatoes are histamine liberators, they encourage your mast cells to release histamine, which can also trigger the reactions you describe, flu like symptoms, joint pain, urinary tract irritation, rash, stomach upset, nausea, diarrhoea & fatigue. I had liver pain like you describe, as part of the intolerance is usually a sluggish liver that makes processing all the histamine difficult. There are multiple possible root causes of histamine intolerance, usually it’s a symptom of something else. In my case, leaky gut (damaged gut wall)caused by undiagnosed celiac, but for others it’s leaky gut caused by other things like dysbiosis. Some people also experience histamine intolerance due to mould exposure or low levels of DAO (the enzyme that breaks down histamine in the gut). I’d try a low histamine diet & if that doesn’t improve symptoms fully, try low oxalate too. As others have suggested, supplements like vitamin d, b, l-glutamine to support a healthy gut & a good liver support supplement too. If you’re in a histamine flare take vitamin c to bowel tolerance & your symptoms will calm down (avoid if you find you have oxalate intolerance though). Best of luck

      @GeoPeanut, milk is one of the better sources of iodine. Iodine is known to exacerbate dermatitis herpetiformis. Many people find that a low iodine diet helps them avoid dermatitis herpetiformis outbreaks. So, maybe the fact that you have limited your dairy intake of late is helping with that.

      Hi, I'm new here. Sorry for your troubles.herenis a thought to mull over. I recently was diagnosed with celiac disease,  and hashimoto's and dermatitis herpetiformis after getting covid 19. I eat butter, and 1/2 cup of Nancy's yogurt daily. I stopped all other dairy and  dermatitis herpetiformis is gone! I also make grass fed beef bone broth to help with myopathy that has occurred.
