<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> First and foremost, thank you to everyone who responded. I am not alone in this BIG celiac world! What a relief. I received over 40 responses and will summarize as best as I can. It might be a little long, but some of the information I thought was worth sharing. After reading all the responses, I've decided to investigate several options, the first one having my B12 level checked. Here goes: 1. Many individuals mentioned B12 injections. Once on B12 injections, their dizziness, tingling and numbness in their extremities decreased, even went away. 2. Check to see if my dizziness isn't related to migraines. 3. Maybe I have an inner ear infection or sinus infection since my allergies are so bad. This would also go along with checking for Menieures Disease (inner ear condition). 4. Several responses referred to perimenopause. Shifting of harmones can trigger vertigo/insomnia/dizziness. I did visit a website someone suggested and found it extremely informational as I am 39 yrs. old and it's highly possible I'm beginning perimenopause. The website is: www.howdyneighbor.com/menopaus (no "e" at the end of menopause). 5. Accidental ingestion of gluten (I've since learned that I have been eating a few things that were not gluten free. Yikes!). This goes along with difficulty in concentration, thinking straight, keeping tack of things and so on. 6. Check the chemical reaction between Allegra-D and Trazadone. Well, when calling 2 different pharmacists, I was given many "suggestions" and/or "options" that could be causing my dizziness. Both indicated that there was no ingredients that "jumped" out at them and taking them both should be no problem. Many of the responders to my e-mail have had similar symptoms and are not able to take both medications. With dizziness, there may be other factors such as anemia, sinus infection, blood pressure problems, and many other causes. My attitude now is I'd rather learn from the celiac population who've been there, done that, etc., as opposed to relying on what the pharmacist or doctor say all the time. This is why this is a good group forum. 7. It was also suggested by several that I try a natural product for my allergies/insomnia. A responder suggested I try Melaleuca products. They have a wide variety of products and in fact, I visited their website, sent off an e-mail to them regarding gluten free status and received a call from their Product Marketing group indicating that they will send me a complete product listing with all their ingredients. Their vitamins are great detoxifiers and have a patented fructose compounding formula and the nutrients are readily available to the body even before reaching the digestive system, easier absorption. Their website is www.melaleuca.com. Check it out. 8. Another suggestion was that I could be getting some chemical exposure in my home. A member has a website of hazards of everyday household products. The website is www.myfreeoffice.com/cleansafe/index.html. Interestingly enough, I took one of the toxicity self-tests and was amazed at my score. If your score was over 50 it highly suggests removing toxic products from your home. I scored a 56! 9. One responder made a possible suggestion that it is called Specific Learning Disability. This is where the brain interpreting visual memories can't go fast enough to keep up with incoming data. Examples would be if you are shopping in a new place, large store, large open places, or feeling like you are looking through a tunnel. 10. Try using antacids. 11. Stress can be a trigger. I apologize for this being so long, but as I mentioned, I was amazed that so many people responded. It gave me a sense of not going crazy, that there has to be a reason and I will continue to investigate this until I'm satisfied. Dizziness is not a pleasant feeling, scary at times, and is truly uncomfortable. Thanks again everyone! For those of you who are experiencing dizziness, hope some of this information helps you on your path to discovery. Sondra
