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.

      Reese's Plant Based PeanutButter Cups are made with non-Gluten Free Oats and only states on the package Dairy Free.  Is it safe for Celiacs or those with Gluten Intolerance issues to consume?  I think Mars is taking a small step in the right direction concerning food allergies and wish they were Gluten Free.

      These items are on sale for $3.99 at Target: Choose from Choclate Chip, Grahams or Vanilla Wafers.   I purchased all 3 plus an extra Choclate Chip.  All are produced in a dedicate Gluten & Peanut Free Facility and other choices are available on amazon.com.

      I had these for years, covered in scars from them. Not had any since I started taking reishi and cordyceps tincture, they’re immune modulators, I think that’s how they work. Most of my other symptoms have also disappeared, I take a treble dose if I get glutened and it’s almost an instant fix, 3 days of mild symptoms instead of 3 weeks of horrible. Might be worth a try, don’t be put off by the caterpillars, I think they’ve found a different way of growing them now.

      Welcome to the forum, @LookingForAnswers101, I had similar experiences with boil outbreaks in the same areas.  Mine was caused by Candida Albicans and eating a diet too high in sugar and simple carbohydrates.   Candida is a yeast infection, so the antibacterial wash is not going to help.  I had to change my diet to a Paleo diet before it went away.  If I consume high levels of sugar or other simple carbohydrates (rice, corn, dairy, etc.), boils would occur at pressure points like the groin and back of the legs.  Your doctor might be able to prescribe an antifungal medication, but some of those antifungal medications destroy thiamine.  Thiamine is needed to keep fungal and bacterial infections in check.  I took Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine, but TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) will work, too.   Thiamine, and the other B vitamins, especially Niacin and Biotin, along with Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and Vitamin D will help keep skin healthy.  Be sure to address these nutritional deficiencies that occur with Celiac! Ask your doctor to rule out autoimmune hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) and Human Papilloma virus, too.   Hang in there!  You'll get over this rocky patch of the journey!  Best wishes! P. S.  Get checked for Type Two Diabetes as well.  Candida, type two diabetes and a high carbohydrate diet often go together.  A Paleo diet really helps me with my Type Two Diabetes and Candida overgrowth.

      As I mentioned, gluten intolerance encompasses more than just those with celiac disease, and in the past was used more like the term "gluten sensitivity" is used today.
