Hi there

I have been gf for 19 months now.  I am also "allergic" to gluten as well
as celiac.  I become breathless, mouth numb within seconds of consuming any
gluten.  This is unintentional, maybe flour in the air, unwashed
fruit,crumbs  etc.  About a year ago, I started getting yellow hands and
feet.  This would fade on and off during the day. I thought it was because
I was pregnant and my liver was taking strain.  My baby is now 1 and I
still get yellow stages.  I have been yellow again these last few weeks.  I
also get very very cold, I have always been a cold person, but now, I seem
to get cold and stay cold, go even more yellow and feel sick.  It takes me
ages to warm up again.  My joints have also been hurting .  I had a thyroid
test done,
Thyroid Peroxidase IgG  1.872
They said the result is negative, I was very surprised.

I also took my temperature every morning for over a week and it is
consistantly 34.8-35.8 C every morning.

Any advice at all?  I mentioned my yellowness to a gastroenterologist, who
said he reckoned he couldn't see it and that anorexics ( I am naturally
skinny) are yellow!!!  Needless to say, I never went back to him!

I am willing to try a Dr. or specialist again but I need to come to him/her
with information.

Thank you
