Hip/low Back Pain

If you had it before going gluten-free, I would assume that you are somehow being glutened. Perhaps go through your old brands to check if anything has changed, or consider if you are exposing yourself to cc through new people or places that do not keep wheat grains away from gluten-free food, utensils or other equipment.

I hope your joints are feeling better soon.

OT, this is an interesting old thread you found, and it seems very relevant to me. I have lots of aches that fit in around this topic starting with snapped knee ligaments, worn out cartilage, sore back with sciatic pain and seized muscles, then a burst disc with leg paralysis, and now I have IB pain, and a weak aches shoulder.... I hope some of it goes away, I am only four weeks into the diet.

Explain this one to me. I have been gluten free for a year, and all of the sudden I have this horrible joint pain, hips, knees, shoulders but I had these before I went gluten free and I have eaten anything with gluten in it lately so I don't know why it would be like this.. I am seriously considering going to a bone specialist but a coworker recently said that it might be something in my stomach causing this reaction, could I possibly be having other allergies?

I used to associate the lower back ache just to the coeliac but I have been gluten free two years and still get that same awful aching etc when I have had dairy of any kind.

I went dairy free too and keep trying to reintroduce in the hope that I am healed and it was temporary but never feel well after the dairy.

My symptoms for dairy dont really fit the ones that are standard so its confusing.

I think its something in the proteins in dairy.

      Hi Kayla Huge sympathies. I was diagnosed in December, after 8 months of the most awful rash, literally top to toe. Mine is a work in progress. Im on just 50mg dapsone at the moment but probably need an increased dose to properly put the lid on it. As you have been now glutened, I wondered whether it might be worth asking for a skin biopsy to finally get a proper diagnosis? Sue

      I had been eating reduced gluten until about 3 days before the test. I did realize that wasn’t ideal, but it was experimental to see if gluten was actually bothering me. One slip up with soy sauce and it was quite clear to me that it was, lol.

      Possibly. Your total IGA (Immunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum) is actually high so you are not IGA deficient. In the absence of IGA deficiency, the most reliable celiac antibody test would be the t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA for which your score is within normal range. There are other things besides celiac disease that might cause an elevated DGP-IGA (Deamidated Gliadin Abs, lgA) for which you do have a positive score. It might also be of concern that your total IGA is elevated as that can indicate some other health problems, some of which are serious.  Had you been practicing a gluten free or a reduced gluten free diet prior to the blood draw? Talk to your physician about these things. I would also seek an endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel to check for damage to the villous lining, which is the gold standard diagnostic test for celiac disease.

      Test results as follows: Deamidated Gliadin Abs, lgA 40 H (normal range 0-19) Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgG 4 (0-19) t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA <2 (0-3) t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgG <2 (0-5) Endomysial Antibody IgA Negative (Negative) Immunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum 535 H (87-352) Do I have celiac?

      how long does it take for the genetic blood test for celiac to come back? I saw the GI today, she was great. She says I def have an issue with gluten and that my symptoms align more with celiac disease than NCGS, so she's doing the genetic testing, Ordered a test for SIBO but said that's just to cover all bases, she doesn't think I have that. If the blood work comes back negative for the genes, then I will cancel the endoscopy. If positive, I will try the 2 week gluten challenge and get the endoscopy done. If I can't manage the gluten challenge (I had HORRIBLE symptoms last time and quit after 12 days) then we'll just assume it's celiac disease and go from there. She says she does a full nutrient panel on all her pts every year, that was nice to hear.I'm on so many supplements it would be nice to only have to get the ones I truly need! so yeh, really anxious about the test results for the genes!! I have an identical twin sister so I'd need to tell her if it's positive, she'd prob want to get tested too. *interesting note: when I said if the blood work comes back that I don't have the genes, then I'm in the clear - she said, well,,,,,,not necessarily. But she didn't want to go into as we had a lot to go over. I did make a  mental note of that comment and will ask her when I see her next time.   she was very thorough! I was impressed! she even checked- up on some lab work I had done that my Endo ordered. I like her, I am looking forward to seeing her again. I think I'll get some good advice and info from her she also complimented me on my diet.   said it was a very gut friendly and healthy diet
