Not sure what I have so I can't tell you but I get night sweats and migraines in the morning along with weakness in my legs and overall tired / weak feeling. I tend to stay up till 12am-1am (insomnia since stomach is bloated / grumbling) and wake up tired and weak (not getting good sleep, walking up in the middle of the night due to sweats).

I feel worse in the morning definitely.  I'm weak and my legs ache.  I feel nauseous and frequently have D upon waking up.  I'm getting my celiac blood tests today!

I am pre diagnosis awaiting blood test results, But I have the worst mornings ever, usually very nauseated, lightheaded and weak.

i had the worst night sweats from withdrawal - like, change clothes several times per night and sometimes soaked through, so, change sheets....  alien, are you on gluten or off gluten at this point?  

 

i still feel my 'ickiest' in the morning but it's nothing compared to how icky i used to feel!  hang in there, it gets better :)  i have been stretching in the mornings to get everything moving and it seems to help.  if i want to do any kind of strenuous stuff, i'm better off waiting until afternoon.

Not necessarily.  It can be sign of another illness.  Everyone's celiac disease symptoms vary (there's over 300 hundred of them!) and not everyone gets symptoms!

 

Have you asked your doctor for celiac disease blood testing?  Other blood work to rule out anemia, vitamin deficiencies? Tracked your food to determine what may set off your GERD symptoms (e.g. citrus, tomato, chocolate, fatty foods, garlic and onions)?  If you're on the gluten-free diet it can take months to years to feel better.  

 

Remember, you have to be eating gluten for months in order to do a celiac disease test.  

 

Good luck!  Hope you're feeling better soon.

I am still on gluten and very heavy at that. I don't diet per say or restrict myself. I have slowly been cutting back on gluten last 3-4 days but these symptoms have been going on for atleast 3-4 months like sweating, weakness and stuff. I try to stay away from gluten in the morning these last few days but after exposing my self to gluten in the lunch time I can tell a difference like bloating, grumbling, brain fog, nerves tingling and gas. Dinner I am typically exposed as well and have a hard time staying away from gluten. Either my thyroid is on the fritz or I have food allergy to something.

We had a discussion some years ago abut night sweats.

 

Night sweats
https://www.celiac.com/forums/topic/7242-night-sweats/?hl=%20night%20%20sweat

 

You can find more threads on the subject by searching for "low level fever".

 

The immune system is supposed to be more active at night, which could explain the night sweats in celiacs.  Celiac disease is an auto-immune disease.

Not feeling well in the morning in itself is not a symptom of celiac disease.  If for additional reasons you suspect you might have Celiac Disease you should pursue testing with a doctor. 

 

All the best.

      Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      Sigh. I posted this yesterday based on the Safeway website. I went back again today to their website to double check. On the page where they are selling Vanilla Bean flavor, it has a distinct Certified Gluten Free label. Other flavors on the Safeway website didn't have the gluten-free statement. Today I went into the store. None of the flavors I looked at, including Vanilla Bean, have a Gluten Free statement. Is it safe? Who knows. The ingredients are either safe or nearly safe (some have "natural flavor"). There are warnings about "contains milk and soy" but not about wheat - this implies they are safe, but again, who knows. On the other hand, every flavor I checked of their Slow Churn line of ice creams has wheat as an ingredient. 100% not safe.

      Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream

      Do keep in mind that many of the newly diagnosed have lactose intolerance.  This is because the villi lining the intestinal tract are damaged, and can no longer make the enzyme lactAse which breaks down the milk sugar lactOse.  When the villi grow back (six months to two years), they can again produce the enzyme lactAse, and lactose intolerance is resolved.  However, some people (both those with and without Celiac Disease) are genetically programmed to stop producing lactase as they age.   Do be aware that many processed foods, including ice cream, use Microbial Transglutaminase, a food additive commonly called "meat glue," used to enhance texture and flavor.  This microbial transglutaminase has the same immunogenicity as tissue transglutaminase which the body produces in response to gluten in people with Celiac Disease.  Tissue Transglutaminase (tTg IgA) is measured to diagnose Celiac Disease in blood tests.  Microbial Transglutaminase acts the same as Tissue Transglutaminase, causing increased intestinal permeability and inflammation.   New findings show that microbial transglutaminase may be able to trigger Celiac Disease and other autoimmune and neurodegenerative diseases.   Microbial Transglutaminase is not required to be listed on ingredients labels as it's considered a processing aid, not an ingredient in the U.S.  Microbial Transglutaminase has been GRAS for many years, but that GRAS standing is being questioned more and more as the immunogenicity of microbial transglutaminase is being discovered. Interesting Reading:  Microbial Transglutaminase Is a Very Frequently Used Food Additive and Is a Potential Inducer of Autoimmune/Neurodegenerative Diseases https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8537092/

      Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      There is a 10 year old post in this forum on Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream. The information is somewhat outdated and the thread is closed to further comment, so here is a new one. Edy's And Dreyer's Grand Vanilla Bean Ice Cream - 1.5 Quart is labeled "Gluten Free". This is a different answer than years gone by. I don't know the answer for any other flavor at this moment. On 1 May, 2026, Edy's website says: "As a general rule, the gluten in Edy's and Dreyer's® frozen dessert products is present only in the added bakery products, such as cookies, cake or brownies. We always label the eight major food allergens on our package by their common name. We recommend to always check the label for the most current information before purchasing and/or consuming a product. The exception to this rule is our Slow Churned French Silk frozen dairy dessert, which contains gluten in the natural flavors." https://www.icecream.com/us/en/brands/edys-and-dreyers/faq It seems that Edy's and Dreyer's are more celiac-friendly than they were 10 years ago. Once I found enough information to make today's buying decision, I stopped researching.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      My dad had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.  Fortunately, it was discovered during an exam.  The doctor could feel my dad's heart beating in his stomach/abdomen.  The aneurysm burst when the doctor first touched it in surgery.  Since he was already hooked up to the bypass machine, my dad survived ten more years.  Close call! Triple A's can press on the nerves in the spinal cord causing leg pain.  I'm wondering if bowing the head might have increased the pressure on an aneurysm and then the nerves.   https://gulfcoastsurgeons.com/understanding-abdominal-aortic-aneurysm-symptoms-and-causes/ Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Presenting as a Claudication https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4040638/
