I Am Breathing Easier At Just Over A Year Gluten Free!

Question/ Comment for Super Sensitives:  Not to say others can't answer if they have had such a symptom.

 

I just noticed it about a week ago.  I started enjoying nice deep breaths with my tummy moving freely.  Usually I am not aware of my breathing, so it puzzled me why it now attracted my attention. 

 

Then one day, my tummy felt tight.  I couldn't get a deep breath.  I had an appointment with my nurse practitioner, and when she wanted me to breath deep, I couldn't.  That was five days ago.  Over the last five days it has  gotten deeper and deeper, until today when I thought  that I now had obtained the same deep breathing that first caught my attention.

 

Now, I recall having that tight feeling in my tummy when I played my clarinet in high school.  Could it be I already had this symptom back then?

 

Has anyone else noticed they are able to breath deeper after going gluten free?.  My most recent things I have done is switched probiotics, added digestive enzymes, and avoided foods I had antibodies for.  Whatever it is I did, I want to keep it up!

I haven't noticed a difference with being able to take a deep breath and glutening.  I play saxophone, so you would think that I would notice if it were an issue for me.  I do notice some correlation with allergy like symptoms, especially reactions to perfumes.  That is pretty closely related.

 

I'm glad that you are doing better.

I just squatted to get a spill off the floor and remembered, I hadn't squatted for years, because I couldn't breathe when I did.  I think that is related to the above.

This has nothing to do with super sensitivity but... once my extreme anemia got better, oxygen could get to my brain, etc and it was easier to breathe

      Thanks for the reply.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
