Neck pain

Hello all, I have been gluten free for over 4 months after being confirmed Celiac through the biopsy, I was wondering if anyone suffered from Neck pain or had extremely sensitive teeth for no apparent reason(no cavities). Both these symptoms happened the same time my joints started to hurt roughly a year and a half ago. Not sure if I'm the only one. Thanks for your time.

Hello. I have not been diagnosed celiac but ncgs by a celiac specialist. I have a Marsh 1 on biopsy. 

I have pain in my right neck on and off.  It led to a thyroid uLtrasound which showed my isthmus is larger on that side And I have a very small nodule. But an endocrinologist ruled out any issues with the thyroid. It is not consistent like a muscle. My doc informed me the pain from gluten exposure can occur anywhere. My sibling, who is confirmed celiac, also had neck pain Which vanished on a gluten free diet.

It is funny, because I was just complaining Yesterday about a sensitive molar on that side.  I have had it for some time and have been to the dentist a couple of times since it started and he has done x-rays both times and cannot find anything!  I have just been sort of dealing with it. I am due back for a cleaning on Thurs.  for me I actually did have a cavity somewhere over on that side that he had set, and then reset, and then reset again, hoping the pain would go away.

 I also developed joint pain around the same time first in the knees and now In the elbows.

 stay on top of it, make sure you talk to your dentist, and if it doesn't resolve bring it up each time you there.

 It is so hard to know when you feel like your body is falling apart what's relevant and what's not.

Are you referring to bone or soft tissue?  You should consider getting your neck examed by a doctor.   It might not be related to celiac disease at all. 

As far as your teeth are concerned, celiac disease does have an impact.  Unfortunately, the damage is permanent.   Another possibility is neuropathy which for celiacs, can take a long time (over a year) to resolve.  

Four months into the diet?  It can take a long time to resolve symptoms.  Hang in there!

      what Benfotiamine should I take as Life Extension contains both Ben and TTFD.
    • knitty kitty
      I take both Benfotiamine and TTFD.   You might want to start with the Benfotiamine for a few days and then add in the TTFD.   You can look for NeuroMag (Magnesium Threonate).  A magnesium glycinate is fine, too.  Doctor's Best is a good brand.  Don't take more than 300mg total per day of magnesium or it may have a laxative effect.   Be sure to take the B Complex.  The Benfotiamine and TTFD will need the other B vitamins.

      Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine has 100MG of Ben and 25 of Thia..... Do you think this is the one I should take or Objective Nutrients Thiamax (TTFD) which has 100MG Thiamine. How much magnesium should I look for? I take the womens 50+ multivitamin since consumerlabs stated and tested that it has the right amount of vitamins and not too much for men and doesn't have BHT which has shown to cause liver cancer in animals. I was never big with multivitamins as well as doctors I just read when I was first going gluten free to take a multi but I think I will stop them and work on trying the super B Thia and Ben, Mag.

      Hi all I’ve been celiac for 4 years now, I’ve done pretty well to avoid it thus far. Last night I took the wrong pizza out of the freezer and ate the whole lot!! The non gluten and gluten pizza boxes are both very similar.   2 hours later I was throwing up violently on my hands and knees over the loo.  .horrendous stomach pains,  My hair was wet from sweat every part of my body was wet. What an awful experience, just had a bad headache today  fortunately.    Is their any products/pills anyone takes if they have realised they have just been glutened to make the symptoms a little less worse.  thanks

      Yes, do take your B Complex with Benfotiamine or Thiamax.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins in the B Complex to make energy and enzymes, so best to take them together earlier in your day.  Taking them too close to bedtime can keep you too energetic to go to sleep.   The Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine is Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride, another form of thiamine the body likes.  The Thiamine HCl just helps the Benfotiamine work better.   Read the label for how many milligrams are in them.  The Mega Benfotiamine is 250 mgs.  Another Benfothiamine has 100 mgs.  You might want to start with the 100 mg.    I like to take Thiamax in the morning with a B Complex at breakfast.  I take the Benfotiamine with another meal.  You can take your multivitamin with Benfotiamine at lunch.   Add a magnesium supplement, too.  Thiamine needs magnesium to make some important enzymes.  Life Extension makes Neuro-Mag, Magnesium Threonate, which is really beneficial.  (Don't take Magnesium Oxide.  It's not absorbed well, instead it pulls water into the digestive tract and is used to relieve constipation.)  I'm not a big fan of multivitamins because they don't always dissolve well in our intestines, and give people a false sense of security.  (There's videos on how to test how well your multivitamin dissolves.).  Multivitamins don't prevent deficiencies and aren't strong enough to correct deficiencies.   I'm happy you are trying Thiamax and Benfotiamine!  Keep us posted on your progress!  I'm happy to answer any questions you may have.
