There’s a Cosco in Auckland in New Zealand. It’s a bit away from where I live but it’s worth the travel for me. Very appreciative of your advice. -

It seems you have proven that you cannot eat gluten. You've done what your doctors have not been able to do in 40 years. That's your low vitamin D, a common symptom with Celiac Disease. Zinc is also a common defiency. Its an antiviral. that's why zinc gluconate lozenges work against airborne viruses. Vitamin D and the Immune System+ ... -

My mother also has celiac disease, and one of her symptoms for many years before her diagnosis was TMJ. I believe it took her many years on a gluten-free diet before this issue went away. -

Ear pain and ringing your entire life may or may not be TMJ related but could be something else. A good TMJ exam would be helpful to rule that out as a potential cause from a dentist who treats that. I have teens as well as adults of all ages who suffer from TMJ issues so it’s not a certain age when it shows up.- 2

It seems you have proven that you cannot eat gluten. You've done what your doctors have not been able to do in 40 years. That's your low vitamin D, a common symptom with Celiac Disease. Zinc is also a common defiency. Its an antiviral. that's why zinc gluconate lozenges work against airborne viruses. Vitamin D and the Immune System+ Toe cramps, I find 250 mg of Thiamine helps. When I started GFD I counted 19 symptoms going back to childhood that improved with Gluten Free Diet and vitamin D. I still take 10,000 IU a day to maintain 80 ng/ml and get it tested 4 times a year. Highest was 93 ng/ml and that was at end of summer. Any excess is stored in fat or excreted through bile. The western diet is deficient in many nutrients including choline and iodine. Thats why processed foods are fortified. Celiac Disease causes malabsorption of vitamins and minerals from the small intestine damage. GFD stops the damage, but you will still have symptoms of deficiency until you get your vitamins repleted to normal. Try to reduce your omega 6:3 ratio. The Standard American Diet is 14:1 or greater. Healthy is 3:1. Wheat flour is 22:1. Potatoes are 3:1 while sweet potatoes are 14:1. So those sweet potatos that everyone says is better than Russet: they are increasing your inflammation levels. -

Not sure if related to coeliac disease but my ear ringing has stepped up a notch since diagnosis. Even since a child silence really hurts my ears - there is always a really loud noise if there is no other noise in a quiet room - but my brain has learned to filter it out. Since diagnosis in my forties I also get a metallic ringing in my ears, sometimes just one, sometimes both. But it comes and goes. My sister also suffers now, we are both in our fifties, but she is not a coeliac, so for all I know it could just be an age thing. I do get occasional stabbing pain in my ears but that has been all my life, and I do appear to be vulnerable to outer ear infections too. So not a particularly helpful reply here, but I suppose what I am trying to say is it might be related but then again it could just be one of those things. I think in the UK where I live doctors like you to report if you get tinnitus in just the one ear. I reported mine but no cause was found. Most of the time it is nothing but sometimes it can have a cause that can be treated, so perhaps worth reporting to your GP.
