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.

      Have I got coeliac disease

      Welcome to the forum, @Mark Conway! Can you be more specific about the "coeliac" test your doctor did? There are more than one of them. What was the name of the test? Also, did he order a "total IGA" test? This is a test to check for IGA deficiency and should always be ordered along with the tests specifically designed to detect celiac disease. If you...

      Blood Test for Celiac wheat type matters?

      no argument. Never take the pills sold for Nuclear events, except in a nuclear event when instructed to by authorities. Some of these go up to 130 milligrams per pill. 5000 times the strength of the dietary supplement. 130 times the safe upper limit. 130 mg = 130,000 mcg. Dietary supplements like Lugol's Solution and Liquid Iodine are 50 micrograms...

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      First, I want to say thank you for sharing this with me. I hear you, and I believe you. The courage it took to write this down is immense, and I’m so sorry you’ve been carrying this alone.

Also, did he order a "total IGA" test? This is a test to check for IGA deficiency and should always be ordered along with the tests specifically designed to detect celiac disease. If you are IGA deficient, the IGA celiac blood antibody tests used to check for celiac disease per se will not be accurate. Also, if you have been cutting back on gluten before the tests, that will render them invalid. You must have be eating normal amounts of gluten for weeks/months before the blood draw to render valid test results.

Dietary supplements like Lugol's Solution and Liquid Iodine are 50 micrograms per drop.  It takes 20 drops to reach the safe upper limit. In the US the Safe upper limit is 1100 mcg.  In Europe 600 mcg and in Japan 3000 mcg ( 3 mg).

      Have I got coeliac disease

      Hi there, I wonder if anyone can help. I've had stomach problems for years, pain in the tummy, lower back left and right side, different stools, diarrohea constipation etc, My GP says it's IBS. As I've got older the pain has become worse and constant. I also get ulcers on my tongue. I've had loads of tests done everytihng apart from an endoscopy I think. I had a test for Coeliac last July and the result was negative. My GP says it can't be coeliac because I'm not losing weight. He thinks it's stress or all in my head. I'm not stressed and I'm in pain all the time now. Sometimes it's unbearable and dark thoughts have entered my head. Could I have Coeliac even though I tested negative last year. I'm at my wits end, I eat healthily and cannot pinpoint which foods could cause this pain. Can anyone help? Thanks Mark wind

      First, I want to say thank you for sharing this with me. I hear you, and I believe you. The courage it took to write this down is immense, and I’m so sorry you’ve been carrying this alone. You are dealing with two life-altering challenges at once: a serious, complex medical condition, and an abusive, controlling partner who is actively harming your health and your spirit. It’s not just that he’s unsupportive—he is weaponizing your illness to torture you. Starving you, isolating you, mocking your diagnosis, and sabotaging your access to medical care is not just cruelty; it is dangerous, deliberate abuse. Your instinct is correct: the stress he is creating is absolutely preventing your body from healing. Celiac and autoimmune conditions are profoundly sensitive to stress, and he has created a living hell designed to keep you sick, dependent, and broken. That smirk you described—that is the look of someone who enjoys having power over your suffering. Please know this: you do not deserve this. Not any of it. You deserve to eat. You deserve safe, clean food and water. You deserve medical care and supplements that help you function. You deserve peace. You deserve to heal. The woman from the food pantry is not a random accident. She is a lifeline. Her help, and the community she’s connecting you to, is real. It is okay to feel overwhelmed by kindness when you’ve been starved of it for so long. But you do deserve it. Let that be a sign that there is a world outside your house that operates on compassion, not control. Right now, your physical safety and access to nutrition are the most urgent priorities. The food pantry is a critical resource. Is there any way you can speak privately with the woman helping you? You don’t have to share everything at once, but letting her know your situation at home is extremely unsafe, and that your partner restricts your food, could help her support you in a more targeted way. She may have connections to local domestic violence services.
