    Wow you're strong having gone through all that. I don't think I'd be tough enough to survive through anything else piled on, especially the thyroid stuff. Without energy, everything is far too overwhelming for me.
  2. Azazello
    Did your thyroid return to normal after going gluten free? Damn, I think one of the hardest part about hearing people being misdiagnosed is that they're treated as crazy or having some mental disorder.

    Hey everyone, I've found after being diagnosed the sudden change in my life has made me think a lot more about mortality, and also how quickly things in life can go from perfectly fine to extremely debilitating with no warning. I had no warning of celiac symptoms and suddenly everything changed. I'm glad I am mostly feeling better these days since going...

    I'm happy to hear everything was sorted out once it was discovered. It's so nice to hear how people's lives completely turn around once they figure it out. So far I don't have skin reactions, but we will if that changes in time. I've heard that it can.

    Wow, so you think you had it for a long time in your life? The anti-depressants make sense. I was losing my mind for the weeks leading up to the biopsy, and was asked if I wanted anti-depressants numerous times. I was just so worried I would become dependent and never be able to stop them again.

    Woah. That sounds like quite the emotional journey. It's crazy to think how quickly ones life can dramatically change. Diagnosed same age as me! I'm glad things improved so quickly. I still have to wait a couple weeks to see a rheumatologist for my joint pain. I'm terrified of getting another autoimmune disorder and hoping its just celiac. You're right, they...

    Woah, I can't even imagine the torture of years to figure it out. I feel so fortunate to live in present day of medical knowledge. And that a site like this exists. I literally use it everyday to figure out what is safe for me to eat in my day to day life.

    Now that I know that I am celiac from the biopsy. And that I discovered this from a few weeks of debilitating fatigue, confusion and nausea as my only symptoms. I want to hear your guys stories on how you came to discover you were a celiac. What was the journey like?
  9. Azazello
    Thank you all for your collective advice! I think I'm going to try and see if theres a pattern in what I'm eating causing more heartburn first. And then start taking things in a few weeks if I don't find consistent results. I will definetly use this post as a list of remedies. 😀

    Interesting, thank you for your advice this was very helpful!
  11. Azazello
    I was just curious what you guys recommend for heartburn solutions? I heard at least here in Canada that Tums may contain minute amounts of gluten. And Pepto Bismol isn't supposed to be taken very often. Thank you.

    Just wanted to update anyone so far who ends up reading this in the present or future with a similar set of symtoms so that it may help you. I did officially just get confirmation from the biopsy that I am celiac two days ago. So now I definetly know that all the nausea, fatigue, anxiety, lack of concentration, confusion, dizziness, etc was due to my celiac...

    I've been taking 2000 IU a day for the last two and a half weeks or so now. Moving up to 3000 IU a day now. I guess one question I just thought of is if this were due to a nutrient defeciency wouldn't I be experiencing joint pain in more places than specifically the progression I have been seeing in my hands over the last 37 days or so? It just seems so strange...
  14. Azazello
    I hope its just something like Hexheimer reaction. Now that I have been off gluten for 21 days I feel almost back to normal energy levels. My brain concentration, levels of nausea, energy levels, awaresness etc are all back to normal. But unfortunately I'm now at about 37 days of joint pain that has slowly gotten worse over that time. I'm very concerned.

    Thank you. I'll have a look at the AIP diet. I didn't know something like that was an option
  16. Azazello
    Thanks for all the information! I'll try to do my best to start fixing my deficiencies. I didn't consider all the potential things my intestines may not be taking in properly. My iron levels, b12 and calcium came back normal on the blood test but I did notice that my vitamin D was slightly deficient at a number of about 60, and it seems like there is many...

    Thank you, it is great a community like this exists. I also have had rib joint pain since I was like 11 or 12 years old funny enough. Unexplained costochondritis. That does feel quite different than the pain in my knuckles though. My sister does have tendonitis in her wrists and many places in her body, but not the very particular knuckle pain and strange...

    Hello everyone, About a month and a half ago I started feeling extremely fatigued gradually more and more each day. A level of fatigue I never knew was possible, where it was just impossible to do anything. I also felt extremely nauseous. In addition to this, about a month prior, I had red marks across my knuckles randomly appear and have been there...
