I was diagnosed with celiac in March 2020 and have been following a gluten free diet.  I am cold all the time wearing many layers of clothes.  I don't know if it is because my husband died in December 2020 and I am incredibly sad or because of the pandemic....amie I not moving around as much as I did before???  It is almost the end of April and I continue to wear 3 layers of clothes.  Help!! Susie

Feeling cold all the time can be a symptom of anemia which is a common condition associated with celiac disease. Have you had your hemoglobin, hematocrit and ferritin levels checked?

So sorry about your husband Susie. Have you had your thyroid checked?

That's what I was thinking! Celiac disease can cause thyroid issues in some people, and here are the research articles we've done on this:

      I’ve used tinctures and made my own edibles with gluten-free ingredients to stay safe. Dispensary staff don’t always know about gluten, so I double-check labels or just make my own.

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!

      Autoimmune diseases tend to cluster. Many of them are found close together on the chromosomes.

      Just giving another update... I was referred to rheumatology, and they suspect that I may also be dealing with fibromyalgia (it has not been formally diagnosed, but just suggested at this point).  So, I am continuing with the anti-inflammatory diet and vitamins and still working to keep getting rid of all these hidden gluten sources, but I also do have another possible explanation for some of the issues that I'm dealing with.
