Celiacs Who Dont Recover On Gluten Free Diet

I dont know if this type of intolerance can be labled coeliacs (even though it can lead to enteropathy and dammage to organs), but it is the type in part responsible for a large array of autoimmune diseases which can remit on a gluten and casein free diet and the elimination of certain infections containing offensive proteins. Milk proteins are the difference here. I believe that pancreatitis was the result of gluten intolerance because the pain, vomiting and diahrreah stopped when I cut it out completely. Tiny amounts of gluten can bring on pain and vomiting (a delayed reaction of 4-8 hours varying). I now have severe enzyme deficiency as a result of the damage. This alone would cause protein intolerance. I also had systemic lichen sclerosis which went into remmision after eliminating casein. The dammage to organs has lead to low globulin which only enhances the intolerances. I have a clever doctor who is figuring things out. I suspect gluten does similar types of systemic damage in people with this gene type and possibly others. It can't be ruled out until proven otherwise. I haven't had the biopsy for coeliacs. I went through the elimination process with a dietician. My reactions became so extreme on reintroduction that it was too risky to go through the biopsy process. A gene test is probably the first thing to do as far as diagnosis is concerned. Dq7 is the gene for MS, sjogrens, systemic sclerosis, lupus etc. The tissue trauma of a biopsy can trigger another autoimmune disease. This happened to me although I believe I got an infection as the result of a biopsy for IBD. Really they should have gone the other route, then I'd know if there were villi. I'll know when the tests are more sophisticated.

The term gluten sensitive diminishes the long term damage gliadins can cause in a subset of people with gluten and other intolerances. According recent research which can be found on the web, the gliadin peptide and others trigger autoantibodies to extracellular matrix 1, the process responsible for tissue damage in many with the common dq7 mutation.

Non-responsive Celiac Disease

I really think this is what I have. I have been gluten dairy free for 5-years. I'm not getting better.

      I forgot to mention my suspicion of the high amount of glyphosate allowed to be used on wheat in USA and NZ and Australia. My weight was 69kg mid-2023, I went down to 60kg in March 2024 and now hover around 63kg (just after winter here in NZ) - wheat-free and very low alcohol consumption.

      Hi Jess Thanks so much for your response and apologies for the long delay in answering. I think I must have been waiting for something to happen before I replied and unfortunately it fell off the radar... I have had an upper endoscopy and colonoscopy in the meantime (which revealed 'minor' issues only). Yes I do think histamine intolerance is one of the problems. I have been lowering my histamine intake and feeling a lot better. And I do think it is the liver which is giving the pain. I am currently taking zinc (I have had three low zinc tests now), magnesium, B complex, vitamin E and a calcium/Vitamin C mix. I consciously think about getting vitamin D outside. (Maybe I should have my vitamin D re-tested now...) I am still 100% gluten-free. My current thoughts on the cause of the problems is some, if not all, of the following: Genetically low zinc uptake, lack of vitamin D, wine drinking (alcohol/sulphites), covid, immune depletion, gastroparesis, dysbiosis, leaky gut, inability to process certain foods I am so much better than late 2023 so feel very positive 🙂

      Hi and thank you very much for your detailed response! I am so glad that the protocol worked so well for you and helped you to get your health back on track. I've heard of it helping other people too. One question I have is how did you maintain your weight on this diet? I really rely on nuts and rice to keep me at a steady weight because I tend to lose weight quickly and am having a hard time envisioning how to make it work, especially when not being able to eat things like nuts and avocados. In case you have any input, woud be great to hear it! Friendly greetings.

      I was not taking any medications previous to this. I was a healthy 49 yo with some mild stomach discomfort. I noticed the onset of tinnitus earlier this year and I had Covid at the end of June. My first ‘flare-up’ with these symptoms was in August and I was eating gluten like normal. I had another flare-up in September and then got an upper endo at the end of September that showed possible celiac. My blood test came a week later. While I didn’t stop eating gluten before I had the blood test, I had cut back on food and gluten both. I had a flare-up with this symptoms after one week of gluten free but wasn’t being crazy careful. Then I had another flare-up this week. I think it might have been caused by Trader Joe’s baked tofu which I didn’t realize had wheat. But I don’t know if these flare-ups are caused by gluten or if there’s something else going on. I am food journaling and tracking all symptoms. I have lost 7 pounds in the last 10 days.

      Welcome to the forum, @Hmart! There are other medical conditions besides celiac disease that can cause villous atrophy as well as some medications and for some people, the dairy protein casein. So, your question is a valid one. Especially in view of the fact that your antibody testing was negative, though there are also some seronegative celiacs. So, do you get reactions every time you consume gluten? If you were to purposely consume a slice of bread would you be certain to develop the symptoms you describe?
