I struggle with similar issues. My primary celiac symptoms are joint/muscle pain and fatigue, and even when I'm not glutened, my body doesn't seem to react the same way it did before I had celiac. Some days I just hurt. Some days I have zero energy. I took up biking more seriously this summer and was very careful to slowly ramp up my miles, but around... -
Does Anyone Throw Up With Celiac?
kbtoyssni replied to Bri's mom's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
So is your doctor saying that gluten is basic and thus increases the Ph of the stomach? I don't really understand this. And why would other grains not have the same effect? This reminds me of my months 9-15 of being gluten-free. I started feeling sick again and occasionally throwing up. I eventually cut out peanuts which helped, and the rest of my... -

Also, how was she diagnosed? If it's a self-diagnosis, it could be that she's got some other issue causing gluten intolerance like Lyme disease. Is she around chemicals or people wearing perfume or places with new carpeting? Chemicals used to make me throw up all the time. They don't have to be strong chemicals, either. The place that made me most... -

Oh, woah, I totally missed the part about her being gluten-free for 1-1/2 years already! Those are not normal symptoms for people on a gluten-free diet! I'd say she's either not completely gluten-free (have you checked pet food, personal care products, CC at home, "risky" foods like Cheetos/Doritos, going out to eat a lot, etc?) or she's got other food... -

I used to throw up. I haven't recently, though. Everyone's symptoms are so different that I'm not surprised that the small group of celiacs you talked to didn't have the same symptoms as your daughter. -
Prosopagnosia - Inability To Recognize Faces
kbtoyssni replied to kbtoyssni's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Oh, cars is another tricky thing for me! I can never find my car. I moved to Minnesota from Wisconsin last year and the only way I could find my car was by WI plates. I've had MN plates for a week now, and I've had trouble several times finding it. -
Has anyone heard of prosopagnosia? It's the inability to recognize faces. Here's some info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prosopagnosia I'm starting to wonder if I have a mild case of it. Last night I watched The Departed with some friends. Normally I don't watch drama-type movies and now I know why. I didn't realize until halfway through the movie...

This may be asking the obvious, but have you checked that they are gluten-free? I take acidopholis, and when I moved to a different state I bought a different brand and completely forgot to check their gluten-free status. And then I got sick... I'm currently auctioning off an almost-new bottle of gluten acidopholis to the highest bidder!

I used to smell no matter how much deodorant I put on. One day a few months after going gluten-free I noticed that I didn't smell anymore. Body odor is often related to things you eat.
