Hi Guys, 

I got diagnosed with celiac 3 months back when I join this forum and took advise from all of you on how to tackle it.. Before I start next para, I want to thank everyone whose blog and comments rwally helped me to takle this condition 

In June 2017 I was diagnosed with endoscopy and bllod report that I have celiac.. I didnt have any major symptoms apart from stomach upset for couple of days.. My IgA TTG level was as high as 80 at that time. 

The moment  I was  aware of this conditiin I went on complete gluten free diet. I stop eating out for next 2 monts and onky had food prepared at home.. Being in Indian I was not to dependednt atbhome on gluten products since mostvof induan food dont have gluten in it. But yet i took extreme precaution and in case any doubt i have avoided all the foids which may even contain trace of gluten by cross contamination. 

 

After 3 months, last week i did my blood report and to my surprise it came diwn to 1.5 from 80. It was. drastic change sobthis week I went for endoscopy and another blkod report and both reports come out be good.. No villous atripy and IgA Ttg at 1.25. I was very happy to see that but I know I have to take all this precautiin life long wgich is bit tough.. In last 3 months I didnt get any off day or any symptoms which bother me or my daily life.. I am feeling as good as before duagnosis.. The only thing change is that I keed tobplan my food a daybin advance. 

 

Thanks all for your support.. Wilk keep you updating on my future progress.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!

      Welcome @Martha Mitchell, I too would like to know more about your prior lenses, and especially about the potential of gluten in lenses. In theory this should not harm most celiacs, as the autoimmune reaction normally begins in the gut, however, in those who are super sensitive or have dermatitis herpetiformis it may be a potential issue.
