1st I don't know where to post this one but....

I went to the Dr. yesterday from having a headach for over a week. He gave Imatrex for when I have migranes, but I told him that I have been under a lot of stress lately and my sholder hurts into my head. So he gave me adavan. Has anyone taken this? Any comments?

I took it for the 1st time last night and felt great. I had a good nights sleep, but today I am not very hungry at all and I am usually hungry all day.

Any comments?

Hi- I took Ativan too. It's a benzodiazepene (anti-anxiety medication). The problem is that not all brands are gluten-free (mine wasn't) so it may have had gluten in it. Check the manufacturer (the one by Sandoz is gluten-free). It's a great medication and also used as a muscle relaxant but be careful because it can be addictive. If I took 1 mg two days in a row, i would have withdrawal, but I'm very sensitive to medication in general. B

I posted a question about anxiety/ocd/depression medications in the other forum on this website.

I forget the exact forum name, but it had "Medicine" in the forum title.

Hope this helps. :D

      Cycle of dermatitis herpetiformis

      Keep in mind that Dapsone can have some serious side effects, so be sure to look into those before you start using it. More about that is here: https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements/dapsone-oral-route/description/drg-20063327

      Dangerously underweight, Perfect gluten free and insomnia

      I suggest you look at your calorie intake. If you're not eating enough calories, your body will signal you to wake up and forage for more food. You need to be eating more calories than a healthy person of normal weight in order to gain weight. Also, your diet is extremely low in fat unless you are eating chicken thighs with the skin on, which I would recommend. Also be sure to add butter (real butter) to your vegetables. You can measure and record everything you eat, then look up and calculate what your protein/carb/fat intake is. Or just eat more chicken rather than filling up on vegetables and fruit.

      False blood test positive?

      By trents · Posted

      Since your mother has celiac disease, I would still keep an eye on this as there is a genetic component. Study results vary wildly, but the numbers are that anywhere from 10% to almost 50% of the first degree relatives of those with active celiac disease will themselves develop celiac disease.

      False blood test positive?

      By Russ H · Posted

      Your initial test showed a moderately raised level of IgA tTG2. There are several causes of this apart from coeliac disease including: inflammation of the joints, bowel and liver. Transient rise in levels can be caused by an infection.

      Rogol72, your recommendation to the OP to "show them pictures of dermatitis herpetiformis" confuses me as the OP does not mention having dermatitis herpetiformis.
