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!

      Gluten related ??

      By AlwaysLearning · Posted

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      By Russ H · Posted

      This treatment looks promising. Its aim is to provoke immune tolerance of gluten, possibly curing the disease. It passed the phase 2 trial with flying colours, and I came across a post on Reddit by one of the study volunteers. Apparently, the results were good enough that the company is applying for fast track approval.  Anokion Announces Positive Symptom Data from its Phase 2 Trial Evaluating KAN-101 for the Treatment of Celiac Disease https://www.reddit.com/r/Celiac/comments/1krx2wh/kan_101_trial_put_on_hold/

      Gluten related ??

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much
