Foot Pain

I'm wondering if anyone else gets this. It may be completely random but just figured I'd ask and see if anyone else has this happen and maybe it is somehow related to celiac disease.

The last few weeks I suddenly get these intense, sharp shooting pains in my foot, almost like I twisted or sprained the bones in my foot. It only lasts for a few seconds and then its ok again.

like a charlie horse?

I get that sometimes... mostly when i stand up or step down from something like a chair. It is a sharp pain kinda like a charlie horse..on the bottom of my foot. It hurts like crazy for 15sec tops and then goes away. I dont kno if its connected or not...i've only recently noticed it in the last 2yrs.

Actually, yes, I have experienced shooting pains in my feet (left in particular) over the last few weeks...I'm a runner, so I was automatically attributing it to overuse and pounding. I never thought about it being related to my celiac (or anything else). Wow...anyone else?

I've had that, espeically when I've been sitting for some time and then got up. And it also happens a lot when I'm cold.....weird, right?

I actually have hairline fractures in my feet.

I get sharp and excruciating pains in my right foot. I have a broken bone in it that the doc said it would do no good to fix, and I have RA and OA, so I think that my pain is just a progression of the diseases combined with the break.

Yeah it's kinda like a charlie horse, but not really. It's that same concept of sharp shooting pain, but it not like a tightening of the muscle like you feel with a charlie horse. It feels more like someone is twisting my bones. And yeah it will be an intense pain for like 15 seconds or so and then back to normal.

It's not something I really plan on going to the doctor about or anything, but I was curious to see if anyone else gets this. Guess I'm not alone. ;)

      If a Celiac person is successful in following a gluten-free diet, they can go into remission.   They may not have a reaction to gluten without a precipitating event like an injury or infection or even emotional or mental stress.   Following a strict gluten-free diet at home, then indulging in gluten containing products abroad without a reaction can be explained by this remission.

      Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      Hi Theresa,  A few of my friends have your same story. You may be right about barley, etc.  18 years ago at a football game while clapping, suddenly my 4th finger was in agony.  It looked like a vein had burst. It was blue for a couple hours, then disappeared.  Finally realized it happened every time when drinking beer.  It's occurred several times over the years when opening a jar, lifting something that was a bit heavy, holding on to tight to something.  Immediate icing stops the pain and discoloration.  Now avoiding wheat in the US, it rarely happens.  Thanks for the reminder.  Will have Entero Labs run another test. Unfortunately they've relocated to Switzerland/Greece.

      The EMA test is an old and less sensitive test for anti-tTG2 antibodies. It relies on a technician using a microscope to check for fluorescence of a labelled substrate (typically monkey oesophagus or human umbilicus), giving a simple positive/negative result. It is similar to running a standard anti-tTG2 test but with a high cut-off, making it more specific but less sensitive. Transient rises in tTG2 can be caused by e.g. viral infections and inflammation. Very high levels of anti-tTG2 (>x10 standard range) are almost certainly coeliac disease but moderately raised levels can have several causes apart from coeliac disease. Other food allergies can cause villi blunting but that is much rarer than coeliac disease or other non-coeliac causes. Not All That Flattens Villi Is Celiac Disease: A Review of Enteropathies
