Healing From Gluten Related Disorders

HI all,

I have lichen planus which I have had on and off for many years, it is linked to gluten and I have only just over the last few months confirmed that I am sensitive to gluten through and elimination diet.

My question is, if gluten is related to my Lichen planus how long after abstaining from gluten does it take for related symptoms to dissipate or clear up?

Thanks in advance

I was diagnosed with celiac a year and a half ago,about 3 months later I was diagnosed with LP, I had it wide spread and was put on a immune suppressant drug to calm it all down. It took about a year. I still flair on occasion. Stress is defiantly a trigger for me. Being gluten free helps but it doesn't mean you still won't flair. I wish you all the best, LP as you know is not fun to have but then I think that there are worse things. At least I'm able to control it with topicals now.

Thanks sweetpea,

It is a horrible condition which can really get you down but like you said there are worse things. There definitely seems to be a Gluten connection with this condition. Sometimes I can be LP clear on pretty much my whole body and only have it on my penis, it drives me crazy and really impacts my personal life.

If you can get in the ocean do so, it does wonders for the skin. Good luck

The ocean you say, well I would welcome that right about now since I'm in wisconsin and they are predicting wind chills tonight and tomorrow of 25 below zero! I have LP vaginally also so I know what you are saying about impacting your personal life.I didn't realise you were male when I replied, I don't think this is common is men so was suprised. Please let me know if you find anything that is helpful keeping it calm. Good luck to you as well.

      @Nacina, I would add a B Complex to all that and extra thiamine B 1 and magnesium glycinate, and high dose Vitamin D to get his level up faster.   We need the B vitamins to repair our body and for energy to function.  Thiamine B 1 is especially important for athletes.  Thiamine works with magnesium.  Thiamine and magnesium deficiencies can cause constipation.  All eight essential B vitamins work together.  Due to poor absorption in celiac disease, supplementing with B vitamins boosts our ability to absorb them.  Here's some reading material that is helpful... An open-label, randomized, 10 weeks prospective study on the efficacy of vitamin D (daily low dose and weekly high dose) in vitamin D deficient patients https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6618212/ Micronutrients Dietary Supplementation Advices for Celiac Patients on Long-Term Gluten-Free Diet with Good Compliance: A Review https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6681258/ The Effects of Thiamine Tetrahydrofurfuryl Disulfide on Physiological Adaption and Exercise Performance Improvement https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6073388/ The Effect of a High-Dose Vitamin B Multivitamin Supplement on the Relationship between Brain Metabolism and Blood Biomarkers of Oxidative Stress: A Randomized Control Trial https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6316433/ B Vitamins: Functions and Uses in Medicine https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9662251/ Vitamins and Minerals for Energy, Fatigue and Cognition: A Narrative Review of the Biochemical and Clinical Evidence https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7019700/ A functional evaluation of anti-fatigue and exercise performance improvement following vitamin B complex supplementation in healthy humans, a randomized double-blind trial https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10542023/ Effects of thiamine supplementation on exercise-induced fatigue https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8815395/ The effects of endurance training and thiamine supplementation on anti-fatigue during exercise https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4241913/ Hope this helps!

      Hi all.  I am an 18 year old male. Recently I had anti ttg-igA tested and it came back as 9.1 IU/ml (weak positive) (increased from previous test which was 5.6iU/mL) . What does this mean please? I am booked for an endoscopy however, i am negative for both HLA DQ2 and DQ8. I have a family history of coeliac.

      Yes and variations in their sources for natural and artificial flavors could be the culprit as well.  I might be on the more sensitive side, but I do fine with McDonald's fries and burgers if I take the bun off, and other foods that have certified gluten free ingredients and only cross contamination risk preventing the gluten-free certification.

      Yes, the yeast could have been cultured on a wheat substrate. But another batch may use a yeast extract cultured on something else that did not contain gluten. These food companies will switch suppliers according to what is the cheapest source at any given time. I take it you are a pretty sensitive celiac.
