35m. I'm trying to keep this post as concise as possible but here are some of the health issues discovered last year (a very stressful year) and one prior health issue (sleep apnea 2022, treated with cpap).
Gluten sensitivity that may be celiac or non celiac gluten sensitivity. My gi Dr did not inform me to eat a lot of gluten prior to blood test and endo/colonocopy. I have marsh 1 inflammation of the duodenum with preserved villi. Ibs-c. Gastritis. A g.i. bleed condition called angiodysplasia that can randomly happen. Fodmap sensitivity. Prediabetes.
I was on iron until recently. It's believed I had more of a malabsorption/inflammation problem from gluten than it being the gi bleed. I'm eliminating a lot of foods and doing trial and error. My inflammation is way down. Prediabetes better and off metformin (5.8 A1c down to 5.3)
Im feeling better in some ways but still not great in others and here's why I am here. Symptoms as follows
-Throat pain, back and newer joint pain on both forearms and thighs and some other spots, fatigue and some trouble concentrating, trouble staying asleep, needing to use bathroom in middle of the night despite stopping hydration 2-2.5 hours prior, increased thirst and urination at times all despite good looking blood sugar, periods of racing heart feeling without stress, constipation. Some muscle twitching in hands and arms.
-My calcium from April 29 10.3 (range 8.6-10.3), 4/9 10.0, 12/9 9.9, 10/28/25 10.1
-vitamin d25 35 4/9 (range 30-100)
-albumin 4/29 4.9 (range 3.6-5.1) 4/9 5.3
-alkaline phosphate 49 (range 36-130)
-creatinine. 85 (range .6-1.26)
Dairy has mostly been eliminated from my diet for the past month. I started supplementing d3 at 5000 iu plus 1000iu from multi after 4/9 thinking low d3 was causing the fatigue but things got worse and joint pain started.
Im at my wits end here and If you read all that I thank you lol.
