Okay so I guess I could say this is kind of weird but given the venue it probably isn't as weird to ask here lol. And also since some incredible people here just recently helped me so much I felt I could trust to get some more insight, but if not, no sweat! Okay so about 3/4 years ago my diarrhea and soft stool symptoms came on. Since going gluten...

Hi Jean, I lost 25 lbs last October-December and was super ill. Like bed bound thought I was dying. Had pretty much let my guts get overrun by bacterial imbalances which happens a lot when your guts are extremely adverse to gluten. I'd recommend working with someone if possible to help heal your GI systems while you jump into your new lifestyle...

Im honestly really happy i mentioned the eye droop thing. Im definitely gonna start on some higher doses of b1 and magnesium as well and maybe even some vitamin D. I ended up reading a lot about thiamine and found that deficiency can cause abdominal discomfort which I still periodically get from time to time even with gluten-free - and likely due...

The bottle says gluten free and it lists only allergens as fish possibly. I live in Canada so Im not sure how strict we are. And I do not eat out at all. Well there's a specialty gluten free place near me where I've never had a problem with since its tacos and they're entire kitchen is gluten free. But otherwise if I get my kids McDonald's...

Oh darn well maybe Ill do trail run to get off them. And the testing as well. I have kids and Im sure it would be helpful to know in case symptoms every crept up.

Here is the link to the multivitamin i take: https://www.progressivenutritional.com/products/multivitamin-for-active-men And fortunately I came off my antidepressants and was psychologically doing absolutely fine. Only time I got down was if i got glutened and it only lasted a few days before I came back to nornal thinking. And today was the worst...

That's a lot of good advice thanks Trents ill definitely look into those supplements. I haven't looked into genetic testing - is it expensive/accurate? Dont know too much about it. Also I cant stomach dairy so it's been long removed. Certified Gluten free oats I seem to tolerate but not sure if theyre contributing to these migraines or what.

Hey trents thanks for the reply! So my blood test for celiac was negative. But the stool test showed high immune response. I was told its likely NCGS at first but when I kept having other symptoms like neuropathy and skin rashes, I asked my doc of its possible it was Celiac and the blood test maybe was wrong? He then suggested if it looks/quack like...

Okay so I'll put a tl;dr at the bottom, but if anyone out there wants to share insight or ideas as to what's going on, I figured I'd give as much of a clear picture as I can. Also, I want to say thank you to everyone here who shares and supports people. I've been here several times since my issues began, and a lot of you have helped me through some of my...
