Hi guys, 

I was diagnosed with celiac 4 days ago after months of quite severe symptoms. After 4 days of following a gluten free diet I have noticed dramatic improvement. 
 

however tonight I vomited again , I have ingested zero gluten however I did drink a bottle of apple cider so I’m wondering if it could be alcohol related ? I was also diagnosed with malabsorption and am currently treating that through vit b12 and iron pills.

Healing can take months to years, and you may react to many things that don't contain gluten, but cause issues. I recommend going through this topic:

I will add that celiac disease is autoimmune.  That means gluten is the trigger that sets off a flare up (those with IBD, lupus or Rheumatoid Arthritis never really know what triggers their immune system).    Antibodies can take time to ramp up.  So, just because gluten is physically no longer lingering in your gut, does not mean your immune system has turned off (remission).    It takes time.  Most celiacs report needing a year to feel good.  Expect some set backs, but stay the course.  You can heal!  

Alcohol?  Avoid it until your gut is not so damaged and raw.   Give it a few weeks and then experiment.

      Isolated DPG-Iga

      By trents · Posted

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.

      Lymph nodes

      By Soleihey · Posted

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.

      Hmm interesting I just assumed that any “IGA” tests including the DPG iga would be negative in a person who is IGA deficient but maybe that is not the case for the DPG test.

      If you were just diagnosed I can say that if you go 100% gluten-free should should see dramatic improvement of your symptoms over the next few months, but the hard part is to stay gluten-free. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
