Title: autoimmune brain disease website
Post by: irish on June 20, 2015, 08:05:17 PM
I was doing some research and just happened to come across this site. It is quite short but has some interesting info in it. Thought some of you might find it interesting.

Some reference to autoimmune ear disease and also to celiac. Irish

Sorry, Irish.  But it looks like there is a problem with the link.  I am very interested in reading it though, so I wonder if you can try to post it again.

Coincidentally I have just finished reading that Celiac Disease, if left untreated, can lead to things like seizures, dementia, migraine, osteopenia, anemia, and gluten ataxia (affecting the balance center of the brain that controls coordination and complex movements like walking, speaking and swallowing).

It was probably five or six years before I was diagnosed.  And I have or am suspected of having all of the above.  That is interesting...it stinks, but it's interesting.

I just tried to get the site off this post and I get nothing. I have looked up the site and I have the right address. Don't know why it doesn't work.

If you google and use the name Thomas Hain dizziness article I think that the link may come up. I found it doing a search using autoimmune brain disease and found the Thomas Hain article. Hope it works for you. Irish

Irish, in the link you posted, it says "disorder" but the one from Quietdynamic says "disorders" and leads to the site. Simple typo I think.

Linda, Thanks, my typos are getting worse in my old age plus I got a laptop and don't do well with the keyboard. Irish
