Hi Sorry Not Been Here For A While Need Your Help

Hello guys hope your all okay...its mand..xx

Okay, now I am still not counting out celiac as I have strange rashes or patches of dry itchy skin in little clusters which looks like herpes on my body in different places , chest, back, leg..looks like exma but more like herpes - does taht sound like DH to you??

The secnd thing is -wheni do the diet I have a whole other load of stuff that happens which teh doctors think is my hormones..

So my belly feels a bit better with the candida and celiac diet but then I get:

Big puffy face (moon Face)

Weight Gain

Constant weeing after every glass of water

Heat intolerances - my wholebody sweats if only a bit warm

Palms of hands keep shriveling up likebeenin a pool for hours and tthen the skin goes very tight and flakes -this happens at teh same time as the weeing...(Possibly to do with Aldorsterone or DI)

Bad fatigue during the day

Night time anxiety - insomnia, waking up to wee all the time

Excersise intolerance

Dr hair

Dry skin

Muscle tne very poor

change in fat distribution in my body

What I wanted to ask was is any one a celiac and hypothyroid? If so, does teh celiac diet cure the thyroid? is teh thyroid just a spin off from celiac???

I am having allmy hormones tested next week and I want to make sure I am doing things right. If I am on celiac diet will my thyroid or hormone problem show if Iam doing the celiac diet??

I know if iam doing the diet Ihave thyroid symptoms or hormone symptoms...I think this is why I dont ever feel better. They have said possibly hypopituitry..so I just dont knwo what to think anymore..

But if this rash is DH - Iamgoing tuesday to docs and Iam going to insist have it biopsied to confirm if Ihave DH!!!

Thanks guys..I am just confused as wheni saw neurologist the first time I had no reflexes and I was off the diet, but next time I did and I was on the diet!!!so, maybe the diet effects me neurologically..

Sorry hope your all okay missed you loads..Ive been on hormone sites trying to work out what else is happening, also Iam helping people on a thyroid site at teh moment with Diet and excersise as I was a trainer before all this. It helps keep my mind focused on something else....so been quite busy inbetween being ill..

xxxxxxxxxxMand

Welcome back!

Yes, Thyroid can be related to Celiac. The diet helps some, but not everyone with their thyroid.

You need:

TSH

Free T3

Free T4

And all of the thyroid antibodies

You should also have them check your adrenal gland function

Hope you feel better soon.

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      Take it easy! I was just prompting you for some clarification. In the distillation process, the liquid is boiled and the vapor descends up a tube and condenses into another container as it cools. What people are saying is that the gluten molecules are too large and heavy to travel up with the vapor and so get left behind in the original liquid solution...

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      No they do not contradict each other. Just like frying oil can be cross contaminated even though the oil doesn't contain the luten protein. The same is the same for a distilled vinegar or spirit which originally came from a gluten source. Just because you don't understand, doesn't mean you can tell me that my sentences contradict each other. Do you have a...

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      The reason that it triggers your dermatitis herpetiformis but not your celiac disease is because you aren't completely intolerant to gluten. The celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis genes are both on the same chronometer. Dermatitis herpetoformus reacts to gluten even if there's a small amount of cross contamination while celiac gene may be able to tolerate...

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      @Mynx, you say, "The reason this is believed is because the gluten protein molecule is too big to pass through the distillation process. Unfortunately, the liquid ie vinegar is cross contaminated because the gluten protein had been in the liquid prior to distillation process." I guess I misunderstand what you are trying to say but the statements in those...

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      It isn't a conjecture. I have gotten glitened from having some distilled white vinegar as a test. When I talked to some of my scientists friends, they confirmed that for a mall percentage of people, distilled white vinegar is a problem. The cross contamination isn't from wheat glue in a cask. While yhe gluten protein is too large to pass through the distillation...

      Take it easy! I was just prompting you for some clarification.  In the distillation process, the liquid is boiled and the vapor descends up a tube and condenses into another container as it cools. What people are saying is that the gluten molecules are too large and heavy to travel up with the vapor and so get left behind in the original liquid solution. Therefore, the condensate should be free of gluten, no matter if there was gluten in the original solution. The explanation contained in the second sentence I quoted from your post would not seem to square with the physics of the distillation process. Unless, that is, I misunderstood what you were trying to explain.

Just because you don't understand, doesn't mean you can tell me that my sentences contradict each other. Do you have a PhD in biochemistry or friends that do and access to a lab?  If not, saying you don't understand is one thing anything else can be dangerous to others.

The celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis genes are both on the same chronometer. Dermatitis herpetoformus reacts to gluten even if there's a small amount of cross contamination while celiac gene may be able to tolerate a some gluten or cross contamination. It just depends on the sensitivity of the gene.

While yhe gluten protein is too large to pass through the distillation process, after the distillation process, the vinegar is still cross contaminated. Please don't dismiss or disregard the small group of people who are 100^ gluten intolerant by saying things are conjecture. Just because you haven't done thr research or aren't as sensitive to gluten doesn't mean that everyone is like you.
