On my doctors advice i gave up lacto-free milk and started rice milk, little did i know it contained barley, so after two days i switched to coconut milk, which i nice enough. I had a few symptoms of course, and today is pretty bad, but it's very unusual for me today as usually i'm one of the coldest people I've ever met, but today i feel hot and uncomfortabel, ive checked my temp but am fine normal temp, but to touch i feel hot...

Does anyone else get this?

Thanks for any info!

I get hot flushes a lot. I've noticed I will get one about 2 hours after eating, every single time. I think it has to do with something in the digestive process, but I don't know what? I also get them at night. I don't think they are menopause either.

I hope this resolves for you. It's kind of unsettling when it happens.

Yes I get this when glutened. Gluten was pushing me into a premature menopause, now reversed. I had really bad hot flushes, and felt pretty hot all the time until I went gluten free. The flushes went away really quickly, along with my periods restarting. Now I am back to my normal "cold" self. If I get mildly glutened I feel my body's internal thermostat start to rise again, but I never have a high temperature as such, and it goes away again within a couple of days once I feel better generally.

I wonder if this issue is linked to gluten-induced thyroid problems? I am sub-clinically hypothyroid, and my thyroid levels were worse while I was eating gluteny foods.

Interesting. I've always been verrrrry sensitive to the heat. Since I was young. If it was the slightest bit hot, id feel really uncomfortable. Id get dizzy, have headaches, feel nauseous. My fan is on all year round. I get hot really easily. I don't know if it has anything to do with gluten, but I find it interesting anyway. I would open the window in the car and my family would be like "you CAN'T be hot!"...I'm still very new to the idea of gluten possibly being the cause of my issues so I haven't paid attention to this specifically...maybe ill test it out.

Maybe. Thanks for bringing it up. I'll pay attention.

      Contradicting length of time for gluten challenge - please help to ensure not getting false negative. Thank you!

      By trents · Posted

      Okay, it does make sense to continue the gluten challenge as long as you are already in the middle of it. But what will change if you rule it out? I mean, you have concluded that whatever label you want to give the condition, many of your symptoms improved when you went gluten free. Am I correct in that? According to how I understand your posting, the only symptom that hasn't responded to gluten free eating is the bone demineralization. Did I misunderstand? And if you do test positive, what will you do different than you are doing now? You have already been doing for years the main thing you should be doing and that is eating gluten free. Concerning how long you should stay on the gluten challenge, how many weeks are you into it already?

      I mean that I will be re-taking the celiac blood test again while I am currently on the gluten challenge right now, but not sure how many weeks more to keep going, to ensure a false negative does not happen. Thank you.

      Thank you for your help, I am currently in the middle of the gluten challenge. A bit over 6 weeks in. At 4 weeks I got the celiac blood tests and that is when they were negative. So to rule out the false negative, since I’m in the middle of the gluten challenge right now and will never do this again, I wanted to continue consuming gluten to the point to make sure the blood tests are not a false negative - which I did not receive a firm answer for how many weeks total.    My issue is, with these blood tests the doctors say “you are not celiac” and rule it out completely as a potential cause of my issues, when the symptoms scream of it. I want to rule out this 30 year mystery for my own health since I’m in the middle of it right now. Thank you!

      I am a male and had developed osteopenia by age 50 which is when I finally got dx with celiac disease. I am sure I had it for at least 13 years before that because it was then I developed idiopathic elevated liver enzymes. I now have a little scoliosis and pronounced kyphosis (upper spine curvature).  All of your symptoms scream of celiac disease, even if the testing you have had done does not. You may be an atypical celiac, meaning the disease is not manifesting itself in your gut but is attacking other body systems. There is such a thing as sero negative celiac disease. But you still have not given me a satisfactory answer to my question of why do you need a differential dx between celiac disease and NCGS when either one would call for complete abstinence from gluten, which you have already been practicing except for short periods when you were undergoing a gluten challenge. Why do you want to put a toxic substance into your body for weeks when, even if it did produce a positive test result for celiac disease, neither you or your doctors would do anything different? Regardless of what doctors are recommending to you, it is your body it is affecting not theirs and they don't seem to have given you any good justification for starting another gluten challenge. Where you live, are doctors kings or something?

      Sorry to put it clearly, at 15, infertility started (tried to word it nicely) meaning menstruation stopped. Which is in correlation to celiac I mean. Thank you.
