When I first was diagnosed a celiac my thyroid was off the charts the endo doctor figured out what was going on and that got better because I was able to absorbe the synthroid. Well now my thyroid is off the charts again , I havent been getting into anything that I am not suppost to. Could another type of food be causing this? or I am totally grasping here?

I'm not sure of your age but I know my thyroid ( as a doctor explained to me) was slowly dying off, then after about 10 months it kicked in & started to work again. Which my doc says can happen but not often! So I went off medication for a long while then got VERY Ill & the docs didn't tend to my thyroid for a long period of time. At this point or lack of missing the popint by the docs, my thyroid turned on my heart & put me into A Fib plus a lot more. I was never so weak or ill in all my life..... To make a very long story short I had to have my thyroid ablated with radioactive iodine. Against my strongest NO but I ended up with no choice. If I hadn't I would be gone today.

I think the thyroid regulates pretty much of all body functions so don't rule out that this is not your thyroid.

Today, I'm better than I was a year in a half ago but I'm still a long way from feeling better. I take synthroid now . I still get very tired & weak , lost a ton of hair, had some weigh gain & get in down moods at times. This doc will only give synthroid , he hates armour.... & cytomel.... which helped me more than anything else to date......

By off the charts do you mean high? Low? If you were taking synthroid I am guessing it is low.

You might have your heavy metals tested, maybe something else is interfering.

      Lymph nodes

      By Smith-Ronald · Posted

      Enlarged lymph nodes in neck and groin with celiac are not uncommon. They can take time to reduce even after going gluten-free. Monitoring is key.

      Trying to read my lab results

      By Bayb · Posted

      Hi Scott, yes I have had symptoms for years and this is the second GI I have seen and he could not believe I have never been tested. He called later today and I am scheduled for an endoscopy. Is there a way to tell how severe my potential celiac is from the results above? What are the chances I will have the biopsy and come back negative and we have to keep searching for a cause?

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By Aussienae · Posted

      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      Why?

      By trents · Posted

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.
