Chrone's + Celiac


May9

Recommended Posts

May9 Rookie

I have been on the celiac diet for almost 2 years now with the small intestines just now showing small signs of healing. I have been diagnosed with chrone's disease for only a few weeks and was wondering if anybody else has noticed the connection between the two diseases? My surgeon said it is extremely rare for one person to have both problems. If anyone has dealt with this before could you tell me if there are any foods I should stay away from. My gastrointeralologist says there really isn't and so does my dietician. Just trying to get all the information I can as soon as possible.

I know that was my HUGE mistake when I was first diagnosed with celiac. I didn't even try to get information and thought I could go wheat free gluten free on my own. BIG MISTAKE!! Caused a lot of serious damage.

Thanks for any help. I so enjoy reading this site but very rarely do I post here. Reading and just knowing that other people have the same problems I do helps me sooo much just to get through those really bad days when I crave a Dominoes pizza or a peice of KFC chicken. Thanks again.

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.

      Hmm interesting I just assumed that any “IGA” tests including the DPG iga would be negative in a person who is IGA deficient but maybe that is not the case for the DPG test.

      If you were just diagnosed I can say that if you go 100% gluten-free should should see dramatic improvement of your symptoms over the next few months, but the hard part is to stay gluten-free. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
