Hi Erin

My sympathies. Before I was diagnosed with celiac disease I had two terrible bouts of canker sores.  I remember one morning eating toast and marmalade and it felt like there was glass in the marmalade! Ouch!

Both times, not knowing I was a celiac, I decided to take it upon myself to dose myself up with multi vitamins that included B vitamins.  I must have read somewhere that that was what one should do and it turns out I was right.

At the time I took Berocca but I think you might want to look at a higher dosage, easily absorbed B12 tablets such as methylcobalamin sublinguals.  You let them melt under your tongue.

Just before diagnosis my B12 was found to be very low normal, you may wish to get your levels checked by your doctor.

I have also just found this article:

It shows iron anemia may also be to blame - I had this, too!

Hope this helps.

I use to get them before I went gluten-free.  I stopped eating oats because it also does give me canker sores and causes my toes to get cracked underneath.

      Kan-101

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      KAN‑101 is still very much in development and being actively studied. It has not been dropped—rather, it is advancing through Phases 1 and 2, moving toward what could become the first disease‑modifying treatment for celiac disease. https://anokion.com/press_releases/anokion-announces-positive-symptom-data-from-its-phase-2-trial-evaluating-kan-101-for-the-treatment-of-celiac-disease/

      Thiamine interacts with all the other B vitamins.  Thiamine and B 6 make a very important enzyme together. With more thiamine and other vitamins available from the supplements your body is absorbing the ones you need more of.  The body can control which vitamins to absorb or not.  You're absorbing more and it's being transported through the blood.   It's common to have both a Thiamine and a Pyridoxine deficiency.  Keep taking the B Complex. This is why it's best to stop taking supplements for six to eight weeks before testing vitamin levels.

      Yes I took a supplement that had B6 in it, low dosage though. I've stopped taking that. B1 doesn't affect other B vitamin levels?

      Any Gluten-free Lipstick At Walgreens, Wal-mart, Etc?

      Have you tried lip balm made from tallow?  It's been used for thousands of years and works better than those with waxes. I prefer Vintage Traditions brand tallow balm products.

      Are you taking a B 6 supplement or a supplement containing B 6 like a B Complex?  Do you have pins and needles in your toes?   Don't worry about the thiamine being high.  The blood is a transport system that carries thiamine to the cells so they can store it.  It's fine.
