And I meant strict, 100%, not one crumb on gluten- because that can undo all of your Apr 14, 2012 My daughter was diagnosed with celiac disease, so we both ate gluten free from the time she was diagnosed until she returned to college. Surprisingly, gluten intolerance can manifest even in our skin.

Admin,

Thanks for posting the connection of IC to Celiac.

My earliest symptoms of IC are from the age of 5. I begged to go to Dr. What 5 year old does that! I learned to accept then grew up to find out it is called IC and related to my gi lifetime problems celiac/ NCGS.

Now I know I have had this & celiac a long time.

Gluten and corn trigger my IC   while I wish I knew this decades ago . I finally have closure and clarity and read I am not alone.

 

"More than 1,000 interstitial cystitis (IC) patients completed an Interstitial Cystitis Association (ICA) quick poll on gluten sensitivity and celiac disease: 12% of IC patients reported being diagnosed with celiac disease, a gluten-intolerance condition. Both of these conditions are quite common, therefore they may be seen in the same patient."

"Interstitial cystitis seems to affect people with food allergies -- including allergies to gluten -- and people with autoimmune conditions.."

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      Brown Rice Vinegar (organic) from Eden Foods is likely gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
