It is normal. I have a lot of bone pain as well. And the muscles in the backs of my legs are often sore. This is a daily thing. It is hard but things will get better. Give it time.

My advice also is give it time. You should stick with. Eat healthy, balanced gluten-free meals and in time you should feel better.

GL and hang in there.

I have big time pain in my hips. Some days I can barely walk. I used to race walk and would like to get back to it but right now it is not feasible with the pain.

I have hip pain that is especially bad in the morning. Sometimes it hurts to just roll over. The worst, though, is the neck pain that I get right at the base of my skull. That used to be horrible before I was Dx--it would be worse lying down and in the morning. Since being gluten-free, that is slowly improving.

Kim-

What kind of pain exactly? I think you wrote insane--so if the pain is excruitating and is affecting your ability to do everyday things or work, you should see a doctor. I deal with chronic pain due to Fibromyalgia, but I am able to continue my life and manage it with pain relieving techniques at home.

I get a lot of pain in my joints. It is so bad sometimes that I have trouble walking. And I also walk up and down stairs all day long and carry a backpack that is about 20 pounds. I am exhausted by the end of the week. I know how you guys feel and it is really stinky :( .

Does anyone take anything for it like tyleno or motrin?

Thank you

Before being diagnosed, I was in bed most of the day due to my unbelievable bone and muscle pain. I was seeing a rheumatologist, in particular for my severe spinal pain. I had been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, also.

Once I went gluten-free, it was an improvement!! It took me a few months to "heal" and not have the everday pain. Now, I am ok. If I eat any gluten (miniscule amounts, like from cross contamination), the bone pain comes back. As long as I am 100% gluten-free, I don't have any symptoms of arthritis or fibro (luckily). I now know that I was misdiagnosed with various issues on my way to being diagnosed with Celiac. However, others like JenVan, have pain beyond the Celiac. Since you have only been gluten-free for a couple of weeks, I would see how your symptoms improve with the gluten-free diet. Then, re-evaluate and potentially look for other diagnoses.

I sure hope you feel better-I know that the pain can make you miserable. Unfortunately, nothing helped my pain (tylenol/advil, etc. or various arthritis drugs). The only two things that gave me momentary relief were hot baths and strong massages.

Yeah, those seem to be the celiac sore spots: shoulder blades, neck, hips/lower back/almost glute area.

I am six months out and still have trouble, but it has gotten better since cutting out dairy. Yoga helps me as well. I do take tylenol a lot. Just don't take Ibuprofen. I got a tempupedic pillow also.

I too get pain..somedays like today my elbow burns

julie, the spots you mention are also fibro spots..funny how many ppl with celiac have fibro..I'm one myself, was diagnosed 4 years ago..makes you wonder if it really is..like IBS, fibromyalgia is another "disease" doctors diagnose when they can't find anything else wrong.

I'm hoping as I heal my body pain will get better

      Thus has got to STOP , medical bit believing us! I literally went through 31 years thinking it was just a food allergy as its downplayed by medical if THEY weren't the ones who diagnosed us! Im positive for HLA-DQ2 which is first celiac patient per Iran and Turkey. Here in the States especially in Cali its why do you feel that way? Why do you think your celiac? Your not eating gluten so its something else.Medical caused me depression. I thought I was safe with my former pcp for 25 years considering i thought everything I went through and going through will be available when I get fired again for health. Health not write-ups my health always come back when you're better.Im not and being tossed away at no fault to my own other than shitty genes.I was denied disability because person said he didn't know how to classify me! I said Im celiac, i have ibs, hernia, sciatica, high blood pressure, in constant pain have skin and eye issues and menopause intensified everything. With that my celiac nightmare began to reprove my disregarded disease to a bunch of clowns who think they are my careteam when they said I didn't have...I feel Im still breathing so I can fight this so no body else has to deal with this nightmare. Starting over with " new care team" and waisting more time on why I think I am when diagnosed in 1994 before food eliminated from my diet. P.s everything i went through I did write to medical board, so pretty sure I will continue to have a hard time.

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.
