Is this Celiac Disease common?

My EMA test came out NEG 2x

Transglutaminase IG A POSITIVE 2X

Endoscopy Biopsy no Evidence for Celiac. Negative

When eat I get an extreme morphine high I really mean it.. Gluten free foods do not even work for me. Everything I eat is triggering this.

When this began. Jan 2018. I mixed and overdosed on supplements to get extreme morphine sedative effects. It has not gone away for 8 months. Is morphine effect a common symptom of Celiac? An extreme morphine high and painkilling sedative effects? Sometimes aggression and burst of energy? This even happens with certain brands of water. I think those supplements are stuck. Are doctors missing something?

I am not sure what you mean by a morphine high.  My experience on the drug morphine after surgery was pain elimination and sleepiness.  No euphoria.  

You had two positives on the TTG IgA. I can share that I never have had positives on the TTG or EMA.  I only test positive on the DGP IgA.  So, do not discount your TTG test results.    It was good that you moved forward and had the endoscopy.  Unfortunately, it is easy to miss damaged patches as the small intestine is vast (the size of a tennis court).  Your damage may be closer to the large intestine or just starting.  How many biopsies were actually taken.  More than four is recommended.  Get copies of all your records.  It is your right!  

Not much is known about celiac disease and the brain.  Gluten may be impacting your brain, or you might have a mental illness that is unrelated.  

Stay on the gluten free diet, do not take supplements unless your doctor prescribes them and you have verified that they are gluten free.  Talk to your doctor about your mental illness issues.  You might need medication (be sure it is gluten free).  

Read our Newbie 101 thread under the Coping section of the forum.  

I hope you feel better soon!

Thanks it is good to know it could start at other regions of the small intestine. They have ruled out psychological. People hesitate when I say it. I mean what I say. Keep in mind... This occurs with anything I ingest. Thank you for your input though. Closer to figuring it out.

      I don't see how cornstarch could alter the test results. Where did you read that?

      For pain relief I take a combination of Thiamine (Benfotiamine), Pyridoxine B 6, and Cobalamine B12.  The combination of these three vitamins has analgesic effects.  I have back pain and this really works.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted.   Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your results!

      Welcome to the forum, @Xravith. I experienced similar symptoms before my diagnosis.  Mine were due to the loss of vitamins and minerals, essential nutrients we must get from our food.  With Celiac Disease, the intestinal lining, made up of thousands of villi, gets damaged and cannot absorb essential vitamins and minerals, especially the eight B vitamins.  The loss of Thiamine B 1 can cause muscle loss, inability to gain weight, edema (swelling), fatigue, migraines and palpitations.  Low thiamine can cause Gastrointestinal Beriberi with symptoms of nausea, abdominal pain and bloating.   Thiamine is only stored for a couple of weeks, so if you don't absorb enough from food daily, as the thiamine deficiency worsens physical symptoms gradually worsen.  If you're eating lots of carbs (like gluten containing foods usually do), you need more thiamine to process them (called high calorie malnutrition).  Thiamine works with all the other B vitamins, so if you're low in one, you're probably getting low in the others, too, and minerals like iron, magnesium, zinc, and calcium, as well as Vitamin D..  Talk to your doctor about checking for nutritional deficiencies.  Most doctors rarely recognize vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially in thiamine. Get a DNA test to see if you carry any Celiac genes.  If you do not have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably IBS.  If you do have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably Celiac.  I was misdiagnosed with IBS for years before my Celiac diagnosis.   Keep us posted on your progress. P. S. Deficiency in thiamine can cause false negatives on antibody tests, as can diabetes and anemia.

      No she didn't because if I want to ask I have to pay 700$ for 1 hour appointment so I couldn't even ask. I read that fillers like cornstash can alter the result and tylenol contains it so that's why I tried to find someone who can answer.

      Did the GI doc give you any rational for stopping the Tylenol during the gluten challenge? I have never heard of this before and I can't imagine a good reason for it. Ibuprofen, maybe, because it is an anti inflammatory but acetaminophen?  I don't see that it would have any impact on the test results to take Tylenol.
