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:

      Vitamin A is important for vision health. But be careful in supplementing it as it can lead to toxicity. Research it and consult with your medical professional. I do not have a definite answer to your original question but I was pursuing the possible cause of nutritional deficiency. But your visual deterioration could be unrelated to your celiac disease so don't rule that out.

      Currently 19. Doctors think I was 1 year old when celiac started, but I wasn't diagnosed until 18, because they didn't do lab work on minors. I've been on a strict gluten-free diet for 14 months now. For example only certified gluten-free nuts and I've researched best brands a lot. I take B vitamins, vitamin D, vitamin C, Curcumin with black pepper, black sesame and green tea extract, magnesium, iron, and a little selenium and zinc, beef liver capsules. I recently had my vitamin and mineral levels retested and D is the only one I don't have enough of now. I had my eyes tested at 17 and they were good back then.

      Not everyone with dermatitis herpetiformis needs to avoid iodine. DH is caused by gluten exposure, but iodine can worsen or trigger flares in a subset of people, especially when the rash is active or not yet controlled by a strict gluten-free diet. Some people react to iodized salt, seaweed, shellfish, or iodine supplements, while others tolerate normal dietary iodine without problems. In most cases, iodine restriction is individualized and often temporary, not a lifelong rule for everyone.

      Questions: How old are you now? How long ago were you diagnosed as having celiac disease? Do you practice a strict gluten-free diet? Are you taking vitamin and mineral supplements to offset the nutrient malabsorption issues typical of celiac disease and if so, can you elaborate on what you are taking?

      My vision was good as a teen and now has gotten worse in the last year. Could that be caused by my celiac disease?🤓😎🥸👓🕶️
