Gluten Sensitivity And Chronic Gastritis


SusanL

I have had upper abdomen pain for about 9 months.  Right in the middle under breast bone and on left side.   Abdominal u/s showed nothing and upper endoscopy showed chronic gastritis.   Has anyone had abdominal pain from gastritis  and possibly related to eating gluten.    I have been eating gluten for 10 years and so far no symptoms other than occasional stomach aches/ head aches.

Currently I have an ulcer in my stomach, endo coming up this friday. Have you been tested for celiac or are you just assuming you are only GI ? I know inflammation is a hallmark of celiac disease. A few years ago, before I ever had an idea that i might have celiac disease I had a really bad pain above my right hip. I was really concerned that it was my appendix or something so after it continually getting worse after 2 days, I went to the ER. They ran a slew of tests and all they could come up with was that I had "inflammation around my organs" they prescribed the prescription type aleeve and sent me on my way. What kind of bulls$#& diagnosis is that? Thinking back it was probably a result of celiac disease. Thats why I ask if you have confirmed that you don't have celiac.

      Constantly! I don't want everything to cost as much as a KIND bar, as great as they are.  Happy most of the info is available to us to make smart decisions for our health, just need to do a little more research.

      Be sure to keep eating gluten daily until all testing is completed.  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      You can always to the gluten challenge later, after your pregnancy, should you need a formal diagnosis. I think it's best to play it safe in this case.

      Very true. I also suffered from candidiasis which had affected my intestines and toes. I think this might have triggered my gluten intolerance/celiac.

      Welcome to the forum community, @Jesmar! The HLA DQ2 and DQ8 genes were the original halotypes identified with the potential to develop celiac disease. Since then, other genes have been discovered that apparently afford a predisposition to celiac disease. As is always the case, these new discoveries are not yet common knowledge and not yet widely dispersed in the medical community. It is not genetically as black and white as we once thought.
