Mild gastritis related to new celiacs diagnoses ?

Hello,I was diagnosed about two weeks ago been gluten free about three now..at time of my endoscopy the biopsies finally showed celiacs but also showed mild chronic gastritis in my antrum(lower stomach) I don’t know if this can be connected or caused by my untreated celiacs or not?ive herd lots of mixed answers on this and know a lot of celiacs don’t experience this symptom but they’ve done tests for everything else that can cause gastritis which have all come out negative.it will cause me pain and burning sensation in my stomach and makes me not want to eat..if this is related to celiacs and anyone has also experienced this gastritis how long on gluten free diet did it take for your stomach lining to heal or feel better? What do you suggest to encourage healing ?ive really fallen in a depression because of the discomfort and new diagnoses, feeling like it’s my fault at times somehow. Also I had to do a gluten challenge in September to do second biopsy to try to diagnose celiacs and ever since then the gastritis has been bad. Also I feel my ppi nexium worsens my gastritis pain for some reason.

I think the two could definitely be related, and you can see by a search of this site that there are over 2,300 results that mention "gastritis," so it is a very common issue here:

I believe that in the other thread you started you are getting ideas about how to deal with it, but be sure to discuss this with your doctor as well.

Yes I have definitely talked about this with my specialist as well as my doctor but it’s been really bad ever since I had to do the gluten challenge and I’ve gotten lots of mixed answers and opinion as to if they are related so it’s been difficult to figure out exactly where the stomach irritation is coming from for sure and it’s quite painful for me but I appreciate all the help and suggestions and support on this page a lot.

      I don't think any apps are up to date, which is exactly why this happened to you. Most of the data in such apps is years old, and it doesn't get updated in real time. Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      What is the best gluten free scanner app? I have the "gluten-free Scanner" app. I scanned an almond joy and it says it contains gluten when the package is labeled gluten free

      Certainly, it would b wise to have a gene test done if your physician is open to it as it would provide some more data to understand what's going on. But keep in mind that the genetic test for celiac disease cannot be used as to diagnose celiac disease, only to establish the potential to develop active celiac disease. About 40% of the general population possess one or both of the primary genes known to be associated with the development of active celiac disease but only about 1% of the population actually develop active celiac disease. So, the gene test is an effective "rule out" tool but not an effective diagnostic tool.

      Had Quaker gluten-free oatmeal last night and my stomach is a mess today. NO flu but def stomach stuff. Anyone else?

      So you would be good with the diagnosis and not worry to check genetics etc etc? Appreciate your words!
