neuropathy?

Good morning,

I have a quick question.  Yesterday afternoon and through the night, I had a warm sensation going down the outside of my right leg.  It didn't hurt nor did it impair my mobility.  Has anyone had a similar experience?  It's gone now, I was very stressed over the weekend, so thought perhaps it had to do with that.

Many of us have had neuropathy as a result of celiac disease.  I have had leg tingling and arm itching without a rash!  All resolved (very slowly) within a year of two of being gluten free.

Do you have problems with you sacroiliac joint? 

It could be that.

Periodically I get something similar except in my case it is not warmth but the feeling that my hip is on fire, and it refers down my thigh.  It was bad last night but having rested it is good again.  In my case it is, I think, made worse by certain exercises and I have learned that rest is usually helpful.   Today I am going out for a walk on the flat, rather than in the hills.  I avoid slopes, walking on uneven ground and jarring movements when it is bad as it can make it worse. 

Incidentally, from typing in the words 'sacroiliac' and 'celiac' on a google search it does appear that this type of deep joint pain can be a celiac thing.

      Thank you for the clarification and for taking the time to explain the terminology so clearly. I really appreciate your insight, especially the distinction between celiac disease and NCGS and how anemia can point more toward celiac. This was very helpful for me.

      Hi,  My 7 year daughter has complained of this in the past, which I thought were part of her glutening symptom, but more recently I have come to figure out it's part of her histamine overload symptom. This one symptom was part of her broader profile, which included irritability, extreme hunger, confusion, post-nasal drip. You might want to look up "histamine intolerance". I wish I had known of this at the time of her diagnosis, life would have been much easier.  I hope you are able to figure out.

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.
