How many of you have had diabetes come to the fore after having been diagnosed with celiac and gone on the gluten free diet?

I was diabetic first (for 26 years) before I was diagnosed with Celiac almost a year ago.

My diabetes was diagnosed March 7, 1986. I went on insulin that day. Celiac disease was not diagnosed until July 6, 2000, but I know I had it for years before that. I had symptoms that I now know for sure were from celiac as early as 1994, and various mysterious gastric disorders as far back as 1970. What I wonder is: Did I have celiac disease 35 years ago? If it had been correctly diagnosed and treated, would I have ever developed diabetes?

I was diagnosed with diabetes in 1984 & celiac in 2004.

Boy, this thread is flying in the face of all the famous statistics, which tell us that celiac is so often a precursor to diabetes, and rarely the other way around. I, too, became a diabetic a long time before my celiac diagnosis (thirty-three years diabetic, six months known celiac). Boy, talk about dietary challenges now!

      ttg iga high (646 mg/dl) other results are normal

      Are you asking if it is typical to only have the ttg-iga be high and the other tests being within normal range? Is so, the answer is it is very common. What other tests were included in the celiac panel? Can you list all tests and include not only the scores but the reference ranges? Different labs use different reference ranges so it is difficult to say...

      Levels on my celiac panel were within normal range except ttg iga which was tagged as high (646 mg/dl). Is that typical?

      Self Diagnosed avoiding gluten 7 months later (Not tested due to eating gluten to test) update and question on soy

      A lot of people erroneously think soy is a problem for people needing to be on a gluten-free diet. Trents' comment above speaks to some celiacs also having a sensitivity to soy, but this is just some of them. However, soy sauce is something anyone following a gluten-free diet should be wary of. Many soy sauces contain wheat, which is where the soy/gluten...

Many soy sauces contain wheat, which is where the soy/gluten confusion comes into play. There is gluten-free soy sauce available, just read labels to be sure. I use San-J Tamari, which is gluten-free but does contain soy, in place of regular soy sauce.
