Celiac and HELLP syndrome

Hi. I’m just curious if there is any correlation between Celiac disease and HELLP syndrome. I had that with my 13 year old. She was also growth restricted and only weighed a little over 3 pounds when born at 34 weeks. I was only diagnosed with celiac disease a week ago and am just curious. I did not have the same issue with my second pregnancy.

I found this article that connects vitamin B12 and folate deficiencies to HELLP.  Celiacs often suffer from malabsorption which results in malnutrition and vitamin and mineral deficiencies.

Hope this helps.

I know this was posted awhile ago but I was searching for a link between the two diseases and found this post. My son is 13 1/2 now and was born emergency c-section due to hellp syndrome. Afterward my ANA levels were tested and they came back high with a pattern for lupus but I have no autoimmune symptoms. I read a study that said these levels being high can indicate gluten sensitivity. Afterward I had two other pregnancies which were healthy other than small amounts of protein in urine towards the end of them. My son always had issues with eczema and after some random vomiting, behavior and other issues we decided to go gluten free. (4 1/2 years ago) The eczema and other issues cleared up. He is positive for HLA DQ8 but we have never put him on wheat since then to try and get a positive antibody test.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.

      Is it gluten?

      @par18, no, Scott's use of the term "false negative" is intentional and appropriate. The "total IGA" test is not a test used to diagnose celiac disease per se. The IGA immune spectrum response encompasses more than just celiac disease. So, "total IGA" refers to the whole pie, not just the celiac response part of it. But if the whole pie is deficient, the...

      This may be the problem. Every time you eat gluten it is like giving a booster shot to your immune system, telling it to react and produce antibodies again.

The IGA immune spectrum response encompasses more than just celiac disease. So, "total IGA" refers to the whole pie, not just the celiac response part of it. But if the whole pie is deficient, the spectrum of components making it up will likely be also, including the celiac disease response spectrum. In other words, IGA deficiency may produce a tTG-IGA score that is negative that might have been positive had there not been IGA deficiency. So, the tTG-IGA negative score may be "false", i.e, inaccurate, aka, not to be trusted.
