I'm not sure if we have the same thing going on but... because of the celiac disease I have Iron Deficiency Anemia. This can cause sores in the corners of your mouth called chelitis (sp??) but you can also get these sores inside your mouth. I have them where-ever two areas meet... in the crease between my lip and gumline, around my inner gums, etc...

Are your spots sores or just spots and do they hurt when you eat foods like chocolate and salty chips??

It sounds alot like thrush. However, thrush is a yeast so if you have tested negative then I would think it would be ruled out. I don't know...have you seen the doctor lately??

This also sounds like lichen planus. Are the white patches tender? Does toothpaste and spicy foods make your mouth burn?

      Canker sores

      By Jacki Espo · Posted

      I do not have evidence other than anecdotal but I am certain when I have gotten these it's the result of eating gluten (back when I did).  I don't get them now that I don't eat gluten.

      Ocd making gluten fears unmanageable. Need advice

      What really bothers me is if worrying about getting cc‘d from touching the same door knob as others touched is valid. Seems like an extremely unlikely way to get glutened but i read people saying that.    If thats true then theres realistically zero chance i dont get cc‘d in a non gluten-free household unless i Cook Everything myself and wash my hands multiple times in between and store all of my stuff separately

      Welcome to the forum, @Mrs. Cedrone! Among the various causes for canker sores, are "Nutritional problems like too little vitamin B12, zinc, folic acid, or iron" https://www.webmd.com/oral-health/canker-sores Could you be deficient on something?

      Canker sores

      By Mrs. Cedrone · Posted

      I have been a diagnosed Celiac for over 30 years.  If I even get any type of cross contamination I end up in the hospital.  Recently I have been getting "cankers".  I am assuming that this is a result from something I am eating.  any insight would be greatly appreciated.  I follow an extremely strike diet as result and this is something new that has popped up.  I still get very ache sometimes and fatigued.  Thank you.
