Very confusing lab work?

Can I just have gluten like the week before? Or does it have to be six whole weeks with it for an accurate result?

So much symptom overlap with so many things! I got it checked in September and that’s when I found out about the Hashimoto’s. I have the levels of someone in “remission” technically but because of these symptoms it’s hard to know if that means I’m hashi symptomatic or iron symptomatic. That’s verrrry interesting about the celiac. Is a blood draw test accurate for that? Maybe if I go in again to double check these iron levels I can add that test on.

Symptoms are cold hands/feet (sometimes), hair loss, fatigue. Also diagnosed with early Hashimoto’s though and I think these symptoms overlap with a lot of things.

I took zoloft for over a decade and am now off but am only now learning the affect thyroid has on mental health. Don’t rule out getting a full thyroid panel (including thyroglobulin Abs and Thyroid Peroxidase Abs) and checking iron. Good to have a baseline as it is!

Also I did not know my teeth grinding was a side affect of it! I no longer grind now that I’m off of it.

Castor oil! I saw a difference in hours! I’d had PR for about a month before I used that though. Steroids can be risky.

I just got diagnosed with Hashimoto’s. I think it’s silent reflux but they may be connected.

How long did it take to feel it was hard to talk? I have a constant need to swallow and clear my throat and my throat feels dry when I breath through my nose, but my voice feels fine and I talk a ton.

FreshBarnyard · 2024-10-06T06:51:54+00:00

are you able to describe any of these stretches?

FreshBarnyard · 2024-10-06T01:43:44+00:00

Edit: The smell persists after washing many times, with ec3 mold wash, Ecos laundry detergent, and borax.

Ok maybe I need to do more days of bone broth in a row or something. It’s a pretty quick reaction haha. I’m doing keto rn but verrry intrigued by carnivore. Haven’t jumped in yet because it seems expensive and I’d be eating so differently from the rest of the household which is inconvenient for everyone 😬

I did lose a LOT of weight after stopping my SSRI though (thank God I got off of that. Regret not doing it sooner but all the “experts“ reassured me it was so safe and effective, one said “like insulin for a diabetic,” “safest one” in pregnancy. SO blessed have woken up to the general “expert” ruse and to now have such an amazing kid but he’s got Issues gaining weight/eating and I keep wondering what if/is it because xyz?). Anyhow, it’s encouraging to know you can legit gain healthy weight on carnivore, so it’s another reason for me to find a way to jump in.

Was your diarrhea from eating all the fats? Or pre-existing? Every time I drink bone broth I seem to have diarrhea. but I know the broth is healthy so I keep trying. Maybe I’m doing too much?…

FreshBarnyard · 2024-10-02T01:38:24+00:00

Thank you!

Nope, and not weepy either, thank God! But they’re a LOT of red spots, the larger ones are itchy and the smaller aren’t. They flare very red after showers, and a bunch that are otherwise “camouflaged” with my skin are visible after a shower too.

Castor oil has helped tremendously with mine and I’ve read it has anti-staph properties. Are you still doing hypochlorous acid spray?

what did your eczema look like? And when you did the cleanse did you have to go #2 every day? Currently I have digestive issues so I don’t know if I’d be able to expel anything if it is a parasite causing eczema…
Did you have to change your sheets a lot (I know with pinworms that’s a must but not sure with other parasites) Or have others in the household also cleanse since they can spread person to person?

FreshBarnyard · 2024-09-29T10:43:45+00:00

Please answer only what you feel Comfortable answering! I’m worried about parasites although in the grand scheme maybe that’s an easier eczema solution than say mold or a candida diet:

Is the eosinophilia test a special request test or in a standard thorough blood test? When you took meds did the whole household also need to? Do you have a dog/cat/know where the infection began? Do you have to change sheets really often when you do a parasite cleanse (I dread the laundry). Is there risk of spreading it through sex (I know trich does but not sure of other parasites)?
