Hi all,

I've been gluten-free for 5 days now and I'm feeling worse, Sinuses are clogged and I'm more tired. I'm hoping this is the bad before the good. Anyone else experience this? Also , I have sores inside my nostrils, is this common with celiac?

thx

Hmm, haven't heard of sores in the nose before... I will say 5 days is really not long enough to notice any difference for some people. I became more tired after going gluten-free for a while. What are your symptoms? Are you sure you are 100% gluten-free. It is common to miss things in the beginning--have you cked products such as shampoo, lotion etc in addition to food? What types of food are you eating?

Okay, just looked at your other posts. You said gas is your only GI symptom? Were you self-diagnosed or otherwise? Just trying to get some background :)

Hi Jen,

No real GI symptoms other than gas. Self diagnosed.

I don't know if it relates at all, as I haven't heard of the type of sores you describe, but have you looked into yeast overgrowth? The sinus conditions might indicate this also. Try a search on the board for that. You might relate to what others have experienced.

      Diagnosed Marsh stage 3C in January 2026

      Pardon me, I stand corrected. I did find yet another blood test for thyroid function. TSH W/REFLEX TO FT4: 2.91 mIU/L (Range: 0.40 - 4.50) As you can see, I was within the acceptable range when the test was performed.

      Gluten-Mimicking Proteins that can affect some Celiac individuals.

      By Florence Lillian · Posted

      Hi all: I have had Celiac for 47 years. I have not seen much info on the following, and 3 of these  affect me. In case this info helps someone else, I offer the following: Gluten-like proteins is a topic I want to share, as they have added bad reactions to my Celiac condition.  Reactions can range from Gut discomfort such as Diarrhea, Nausea, Vomiting, and inflammation causing a feeling of being very warm to hot. The following are considered  Gluten-Mimicking Proteins: Corn (Zein protein) (this causes inflammation with me). Millet Panicin protein) Sorghum (Kafirin protein).  Potato (Patatin protein, is NOT considered a Gluten-Mimic, nor is Oats (Avenin) but they do cause reactions in some Celiac people... I eat potato and I vomit, and get diarrhea. gluten-free Oats causes me to have Nausea, and Corn causes me  Inflammation.  I hope this helps someone.  Wishing the very best to all.   Florence.

It was my haematologist that checked more of my symptoms and came up with the result. So I am trying hard to get some nutrition into my body. All of this info on supplements and nutritional diets is very helpful.  Regards Margaret.
