I'm sorry to hear you've had some set backs, but this is common. These two articles might be helpful:

Dear Scott I have now been gluten free for 3 weeks and I am so listless tired a lot of the time when I poisoned myself last week I honestly thought I was going to die so much so I crawled to open the door I had terrible vertigo in case I had to call an ambulance... I looked it up in between nausea and spinning that this was a symptom of being poisoned by gluten ... I think I am still in shock with myself diagnosis and have made an appointment with the doctor ... All of my horrid symptoms have gone no more sore muscles no more bloating no more feeling physically sick and I now no I didn’t have IBS ..... This is such a new and sudden life for me scary but I am grateful I now no I have this thing ... I see tablets advertised that say they stop the gluten getting into your intestines is this true ... Thank you for the articles sent it was very kind of you to set up this site for fellow sufferers and I will be eternally grateful but just now am wiped out

It's good to hear that your symptoms are improving on a gluten-free diet. 

The GliadinX enzymes are indeed a site sponsor here, but I only allow that because they work, but only on small amounts of gluten, like you might get if you ate something "gluten-free" at a restaurant that was contaminated (perhaps they cook your eggs or bacon on a grill where they just cooked pancakes). I don't eat out much since the pandemic hit, but normally would eat out at restaurants 1-2 times a week, and would inevitably end up having gluten issues, and it didn't seem to matter whether I ordered off of a gluten-free menu, and the restaurant staff acted like they knew exactly what they were doing.

Rather than quit dining out, which is something that I love to do, I take at least 2 capsules of GliadinX before a meal whenever I do eat out. Since doing this I've never had another issue, and I doubt this is due to the restaurants suddenly becoming perfect at preparing gluten-free meals.

I did a review on these here, and this is a true story:

      I’m in a flare up with rib pain. I read where others have experienced this after exposure to gluten.  Has anyone found something that eases the pain.   
    • CeliacPI
      Scott Adams/Trents - Thanks!  I will definitely do some more research.  I welcome any and all advice.  
    • CeliacPI
      Yes, I've read that online but I was just surprised that no one has mentioned it on this forum specifically.  We have not had our follow up meeting with the Dr where I'm sure she will advise as to how he needs to deal with this ailment.  I have learned from past health issues - if you want to find the REAL truth - talk to someone living with the disease.  THEY will know way more than any doctor ever could.    Thanks for responding.

      While lymphocytic colitis (LC) isn’t as frequently discussed as other celiac-related conditions, research does show a connection between the two, likely due to shared autoimmune mechanisms. Some people with celiac do develop microscopic colitis (including lymphocytic or collagenous types), so your husband isn’t alone in this. The finding of dysplasia adds another layer of complexity, but the good news is that chromoendoscopy is a highly effective tool for detecting and monitoring precancerous changes—early intervention makes a big difference. Since his celiac went undiagnosed for so long, it’s possible the prolonged inflammation contributed to these issues, which is why strict gluten-free adherence and follow-up care are crucial now. For managing LC, some find relief with anti-inflammatory medications (like budesonide) or dietary adjustments (low-fat, low-fiber, or dairy-free trials), but his gastroenterologist can tailor a plan. You might also seek out online support groups for microscopic colitis—they often share practical tips.

      @CeliacPI, I know this does not directly address your question but it is well-known that in the celiac population, intestinal diseases in general are statistically more common than they are in the general population - IBS, colitis, lymphoma, etc.
