Susie0402, in my rural county of Washington state, the vaccine has been in very short supply. I have not received any shots yet and by the time it's available to me herd immunity may already be in place.

Sorry for your loss. Sometimes life just backs up and dumps.

It's been a year since your celiac disease diagnosis. How are you feeling physically now? Are you able to stick to a gluten-free diet?

Blessings.

Trents,  I have eliminated gluten from my diet the day in March, 2020 that I was diagnosed.  My family and friends had been so excited about the availability of the vaccine that I signed up and I got the Pfizer.  Eating and food occasions are just not the same to me since the celiac diagnosis.  I'm not feeling great but it could be the stress of life.  I hope that you get the vaccine if that is what you want.  If you choose not to get the vaccine, I totally respect that.  Be well and thanks for checking on me.  Susie

I had my first Pfizer vaccine 2 days ago.  I was so impressed with how efficient the process was.  I felt great after.  That evening my arm became sore.  The next morning it was really sore, but felt similar to a flu shot.  Yesterday afternoon I developed a headache and last night I was exhausted and a bit nauseous.  I went to bed and this morning I feel a lot better.  My arm is now only sore when I touch it.  My headache is very mildly there, but I'm prone to headaches anyway.   

I'm really glad I got it...I'm looking forward to moving forward!

I've had both of my Pfizer vaccination shots and had nothing but a sore arm. I understand many have experienced aching,fever and fatigue, but don't let that stop you from getting vaccinated. I am now looking forward to seeing family who live 1000 miles away.

I had my second Moderna 2 weeks ago.  The first one gave me only a sore arm for a day or two.  The second was quite a bit worse, with headache, body aches, slight fever, extreme fatigue, a rash on my arm.  The first day was OK, and the second day was the worst.  The third and fourth days were very mild.  But all that is nothing compared to what covid might have been for me.  I've been gluten free just over a year now.  My fall flu shot was the first time I ever had unpleasant side effects from a flu shot, and I wondered if that  had anything to do with being relatively new to gluten free.  Maybe my immune system was happy to have some work to do again, LOL.

I also had both Pfizer vaccinations first one just a soreness for a day or two. The second one made me tired and useless. Feel great it's  been for weeks out. We did have trouble finding were to get it. I have a son that works as a delivery driver he got him yesterday. My other son just back from Kuwait after a year deployment they never vaccinated them before and now will get one tomorrow. They are very slow in Michigan.......

      I did some research and found out that vaccines put preservatives, sugar alcohols and metals in them. Which I have a intolerance too.  I was supposed to do testing to find out metal's I was allergic to because I can't  wear jewelry of any kind. Mayo felt I had other allergies also.

      For individuals who have experienced negative reactions to the flu vaccine, there are alternative formulations that may reduce the risk of allergic responses. Traditional flu vaccines are typically produced using egg-based methods, which can pose issues for those with egg allergies. However, there are now several egg-free options available, such as cell-based and recombinant flu vaccines. Recombinant Vaccines (e.g., Flublok Quadrivalent): These are produced without the use of eggs and are grown in insect cells, making them a suitable option for individuals with egg allergies. Cell-Based Vaccines (e.g., Flucelvax Quadrivalent): These vaccines are also egg-free and are produced using mammalian cell cultures, which can be a safer alternative for those with egg allergies. Other Considerations: If you have had a reaction to a specific component of the flu vaccine (e.g., gelatin, preservatives, or antibiotics), discussing your medical history with a healthcare provider is crucial. They can help identify vaccines that exclude these ingredients. It's important to consult with an allergist or healthcare provider to determine the safest option based on your specific allergies and medical history. They can also provide guidance on pre-vaccination testing or desensitization protocols if necessary. Also, at @trents mentioned, could you be getting hidden gluten in your diet? Do you eat in restaurants? If so, this could be why you still have high gluten antibodies.

      Mayo is great and yes I had the same experience.  They take you seriously and they check everything.  I to wish other Dr's cared that much. I sure hope it's not refractory celiac also.

      When I went to the Mayo Clinic back in 21' it was pretty amazing. The doctor sat and went over everything with me for a couple hours. I finally had to ask him if he had other patient to see. He said that not until he was done with me. I went back to my hotel room that day after some blood work and then got an itinerary of tests to be done over the next 5 days. It was unbelievable. I had what would've been 4 years of testing back home done in 5 days. I went home at the end of 5 days and got my results a week later on a zoom call. EPI and rapid gastric emptying syndrome. I do have celiac disease but that wasn't the cause of my continued symptoms. Those people up there are great. Wouldn't that be amazing if all medical care was like that?  That's weird that the antibodies are that high. Hopefully it's not refractory celiac disease. Good luck.

      Antibodies my number is in 500's. COVID hit and I was  layed off from my job so no insurance (was in Arizona) so couldn't complete all the other testing they wanted to do. Back home and contacted Minnesota Mayo and they take my new insurance so considering going back in spring.
