Celiac And Duodenal Cancer?

HI,

I am fairly new to all of this. My diet started out as a 6 week trial and now, 12 weeks later I'm still struggling through it. And YES, I do feel better.

My question is, can/could celiac cause duodenal cancer? My father in law complained of stomach pains since the day I met him, over 16 years ago and he passed away on Jan 26, 2005. I have a duodenal group at yahoo now. But as I am reading about all of these things, pains, foods, etc, it made me wonder about it. Docs sayd it's rare and only a few people get it,but according to the amount of people signing up on the yahoo board that's not the case.

Thanks soooooo much for those who have been posting. I've had stomach and right side pains under my ribs as well. The endoscopy only showed and inflamed stomach and nothing on the lab tissue. IS the inflamed stomach also a part of celiac? I am guessing it is because i't much better and I know when I've been "glutened" I was begining to think this was all in my head, but as I continue to learn and read posts, wow, do I ever fit right in.

I am working on getting my daughter to eat gluten free as well, but without telling her. SHe's 6 3/4 and complains about stomaches every time we turn around. She is often in the bathroom during meals too. SO, I'm just having a hunch about that.

Thanks for your wisdom!

I don't know about keeping it a secret from a year old. Children are very adaptable. If your child notices a difference on a gluten free diet, that the stomach pains are gone they will probably adhere to a strictly gluten free diet for life. My six year old avoids gluten like the poison it is to him.

      Blood results

      Possibly gluten withdrawal. Lot's of info on the internet about it. Somewhat controversial but apparently gluten plugs into the same neuro sensors as opiates do and some people get a similar type withdrawal as they do when quitting opiates. Another issue is that gluten-free facsimile flours are not fortified with vitamins and minerals as is wheat flour (in the U.S. at least) so when the switch is made to gluten-free facsimile foods, especially if a lot of processed gluten-free foods are being used as substitutes, vitamin and mineral deficiencies can result. There is also the possibility that she has picked up a virus or some but that is totally unrelated to going gluten-free.

      Daughter has started gluten free diet this week as per gastroenterologists suggestion. However says she feels more tired and like she’s been hit by a train. I suggested it could be the change to gluten free or just stress from the endoscopy last week catching up with her. Just wondering if feeling more tired is a normal reaction at this stage. I suppose it’s possible some gluten might have been present without realising. Have tried to reassure her it’s not going to resolve symptoms overnight

      Celiac and allergic to common subs and adds in prepared foods

      By DAR girl · Posted

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      Disregarded

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.
