Feeling Much Better Today

Hello,

I am just posting to say that I am feeling better today. In sheer exasperation I stopped eating and started fasting. I fasted for 24 hours, and I went into a health food store to buy a D-Tox kit. Inside the D-tox kit was the "Wild Rose Meal Plan". I think I have heard of this diet before, but it gave me renewed hope of how to eat and be happy at the same time :D .

A lot of my problem is I get frustrated and start feeling like everything is making sick and then become scared to eat. I am happy to find that this Meal Plan allows me to eat as much fish as I like!!!!!! That really gives me a lot of hope.

So I went home that night and had a can of Sockeye Salmon, minced onion and lemon juice, and then had peeled plums after that, and a probiotic capsule. And then started again on 1/8 tsp of 3Lac. And I felt really good. So I am going to follow that meal plan, and see how I do.

I decided not to take the herbal remedies yet that come with the detox kit because I don't feel that my digestive system is stable enough to handle it. Will wait till I stabilize a bit.

Thanx for listening. I need a lot of support in this. My goal is to get stabilized again, and to get rid of the pain in the left side. I can still sort of feel it. Probably the fasting is the best thing for the pain. So I'm trying to abstain from food for 12 - 14 hours each day. So no eating after 6:00 PM.

Bye, Janet

What helps me is I eat salmon congee.

Add cooked rice and water to a pot, a lil ginger a lil wild salmon salt to taste. Let it sit until the water has fused with the rice.

After put it in a bowl squeeze a lil lime in it and alota of pepper. I also eat it with kim chi.

I ate it for two days straight and it seemed to detoxify me really good!

      Autoimmune Reaction to SO many foods

      I'm a little confused. In your second post you said, "but these symptoms have been ongoing for a long time before the pregnancy" while in your most recent post you say, "I was doing a lot better on the AIP diet.

      Did the symptoms commence after you discontinued the AIP diet? Have you checked all nutritional supplements and oral hygiene products for possible gluten content? Have you recently checked all the labels of purchased processed foods in your pantry to check for formulation changes that might have introduced gluten? Historically, when "glutened" did...

      Autoimmune Reaction to SO many foods

      Hi Trent! Thanks so much for your warm welcome and questions! They do, but these symptoms have been ongoing for a long time before the pregnancy. However, it's hard for me to know what's a celiac response vs. a Hashimotos one. I haven't, maybe it's worth getting those checked again?

      Welcome to the forum, @Maura Gissen! Don't those same symptoms often come along with the territory when pregnant? And then throw in Hashimoto's. Have you had your celiac antibody levels checked recently?

However, I was unable to do the full reintroduction process because I went off the AIP diet when I got pregnant and was experiences chronic nausea." CBC = Complete Blood Count. This is the typical bloodwork most people would have done routinely with an annual wellness checkup. I would include things like iron levels, various blood cell counts including reds and whites and other infection fighters. CMP = Complete Metabolic Panel. This would measure things like blood sugar, kidney and liver function, plasma proteins and various enzymes. Non cellular things that the body produces. Also typical of an annual wellness check. Have you tried cutting out dairy and oats? These two are the most common cross reactors in the celiac community. I know it must be tough trying to get adequate calories and nutrition when you are pregnant while at the same time eliminating foods that are good sources of those things.

      They did. I was doing a lot better on the AIP diet. However, I was unable to do the full reintroduction process because I went off the AIP diet when I got pregnant and was experiences chronic nausea. This is what makes me believe it's food related.  I do check all of my food products and supplements and I am very careful about them being gluten free and trying to stay away from corn starch etc. However, I am eating gluten free breads that sometimes have rice flour, yeast, etc. - I seem to do fine with these breads/bread products some days, but then am sick other days.  I have never really had any GI symptoms outside of bloating. My symptoms are dizziness, brain fog, and a general feeling of unwellness or malaise, sort of like when you're going to get the flu.  I have had a lot of bloodwork done over the last three years, but I don't recall doing the CBC, CMP, or a celiac-specific test recently. That's helpful so that could at least provide some insight to see if I'm still being exposed.  Do you see most individual with celiacs having to take a period of time away from even gluten free breads and other cross-reactive foods to let their guts heal? I'm not sure how restrictive to get with my diet again since it's so challenging.

      Did the symptoms commence after you discontinued the AIP diet? Have you checked all nutritional supplements and oral hygiene products for possible gluten content? Have you recently checked all the labels of purchased processed foods in your pantry to check for formulation changes that might have introduced gluten? Historically, when "glutened" did you have GI symptoms or were you a "silent" celiac whose symptoms were non GI. Is what you are experiencing now like what you were experiencing at the time of diagnosis? Have you had recent blood work done (CBC and CMP) and if so, were there any parameters out of norm? I know you have Hashimoto's but you say that is well controlled now? It certainly wouldn't hurt to get celiac antibodies rechecked. Because you are essentially gluten free I would not expect to see any big departures from normal levels but if there are even weak positives it could indicate you are getting glutened from some unexpected source.
