About A Week Into gluten-free-Free Diet, Have Some Mental Changes Already

My head is a bit clearer. I haven't woken up in a panic in a couple days at least. I stopped biting my nails two days ago without conscious effort. I've biten my nails since I was 5 years old, and I'm 32 now. That's actually quite significant. It represents the a high level of anxiety I am not experiencing anymore.

I will write in more in a few more days. I can feel there is probably more to come.

Anxiety was one of my symptoms too, and I'm 34. It's like an ocean of calm that was never there before.

From the time I was a small child, I was told that I was just overly sensitive and melancholy. So glad to be gluten free now because that is NOT my true personality.

Nail biting and cheek chewing stopped for me as well.

Morning panic too.

You are in for a lot more surprises as your body heals.

Calm feels great!

Hey, I never thought about the nail biting. I hardly ever do it now.

      Less than 10 parts per billion issues

      You may be reacting to some of the ingredients used to imitate gluten products. I eat Amy's Chilli quite often with no problems. When I eat Bush's chilli beans or Hormel Chilli with the same ingredient list, I get heartburn.  Break out the alka seltzer.   Barillo spaghetti has CORN FLOUR, RICE FLOUR, MONO AND DIGLYCERIDES. Udi's White bread Ingredients - water, tapioca starch, brown rice flour, canola oil, dried egg whites, sugar, tapioca maltodextrin, tapioca syrup, sorghum flour, less than 2% of: rice starch, sorghum grain, flaxseed meal,  gum blend (xanthan gum, sodium alginate, guar gum), apple cider vinegar, apple fiber, molasses, salt, amaranth flour, teff flour, yeast, cultured brown rice, locust bean gum, enzymes Chobani Greek Yogurt Cultured nonfat milk, cane sugar, water, natural flavors, fruit pectin, guar gum, locust bean gum, vanilla extract, lemon juice concentrate.

      Endoscopy

      By Soleihey · Posted

      My TTG was 167 one year ago. Recently had it retested one month ago and it went down to 16. I only recently had an endoscopy done as I was pregnant within the last year. I did not eat gluten prior to this endoscopy as I get very sick. Prior to obtaining the biopsies, the endoscopy said “ diffuse moderately erythematous mucosa to the second part of the duodenum without bleeding.” However, the biopsy came back negative. I assume it’s a false negative as I have also had genetic testing to confirm celiac. However, what would cause the inflammation to the second part of the duodenum and continued positive blood markers if the intestines have healed?

      Thank you for direction.  Eating out is a concern though we rarely do, but I'm prepared now.

      Celiac or not?

      By cristiana · Posted

      Thank you for the update.  So interesting to know how things are changing, when I was diagnosed I had very similar blood results but still had to have the endoscopy.  Glad you know where you stand.  As your father has celiac disease you probably already know a lot about it, but do contact us if we can help further.
