I wanted to check back up on you, didn’t see your comment till now , how are you doing??

Did you personally experience gastritis and feel it was related to celiac and got better on a gluten free diet? 

Hello Lyns5201 

How are you doing I'm doing good as long as I stay away from gluten and latex food I should be good

I started getting relief the first month I was gluten-free, which was about 6 weeks prior to my celiac diagnosis and yes, my blood antigen tests were positive even with the gluten-free diet.  Once I was diagnosed, I tapered off the gastro meds.  I've taken them all and was taking prescription level doses of both lansoprazol and pepcid (which is basically twice the dose recommended on the bottle) with tums for the break throughs every night.  I got off them all with no ill affect.  I have had two reflux episodes in the last 6 months, both following suspected gluten intake (I just had to eat those french fries, not thinking the oil was contaminated by the gluten from the breading on the fried chicken, and forgetting to tell the waiter I couldn't handle the gravy).  I can now tell when I have gluten because I get gall bladder type pain and a headache, luckily no reflux. I am now able to eat tomato sauce and drink red wine, which used to be triggers for reflux,   I even got rid of the wedge I was sleeping on.  I used to have headaches every day, but they are rare now.  But you really need to look for a gastroenterologist who treats celiac patients.  They understand, while other gastro specialists are focused on ulcers and cancer and surgical solutions.  You need one who understands the role of nutrition and one who knows how to do small intestine endoscopy with biopsies.  My old gastro treated me for over 10 years with pills and never tested me for celiac and I didn't get any better.  My new gastro says it may take up to 2 years to eliminate the effects of gluten on your system, but my symptoms seem to have resolved much sooner.

Did you ever get pain from the gastritis though ?I will have a burning or hot sensation  in my stomach even eating things gluten free from my gastritis ...don’t know if it’s from having the celiac and being untreated a while.

What reactions do you get if you eat latex foods like fruits or avocados ?what about soy does that bother you at all? I don’t remember if you’d said you’ve suffered from gastritis or not ?

      Gluten Allergy

      @MMeade, People who get over-methylated are frequently low in Pyridoxine Vitamin B6. Pyridoxine helps regulate the methylation process so it doesn't run amok. P-5-P is the active form. All eight essential B vitamins work in concert together. Just taking one or two can throw the rest out of balance. If you have malabsorption as occurs in Celiac...

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      @Rejoicephd, I took high dose Vitamin D to correct my severe deficiency quickly. It's safe to do this. I felt much better once my Vitamin D level was about eighty ng/mL. Vitamin D works as a hormone and helps calms the immune system between 80 - 100 ng/mL. High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation Can Correct Hypovitaminosis D Prior to Total Knee...

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      Thanks @knitty kitty for keeping me thinking about the importance of vitamins. And I appreciate you sending those papers (gives me something for my science brain to work through! I’m a PhD in biology so I like reading these sorts of things). It’s been surprising to see how little is understood about the cause of fibromyalgia. My Vit D went low again on my ...

      Gluten Free Beer - The Enzymatic Hydrolyzation Process Problem

      Yes, that seems to be the gist. Quantifying residues in fermented foods and drinks seems to be difficult. There are no tests for total gluten, just immunoassays, which generally detect a single epitope. There are estimated to be approximately 50 sequences that evoke a T-cell response of which nearly half are unknown and have no test. Gluten fragments...

      Gluten Allergy

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty, I really appreciate all the feedback. I have had 2 biopsies of my small intestine that are negative for celiac disease. I have not had the genetic testing though, so that is something I will look into, since the biopsies were done without a prior gluten challenge. I tried one once before an allergy test and was sick for days...

      Gluten Allergy

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @MMeade, People who get over-methylated are frequently low in Pyridoxine Vitamin B6.  Pyridoxine helps regulate the methylation process so it doesn't run amok.  P-5-P is the active form. All eight essential B vitamins work in concert together.  Just taking one or two can throw the rest out of balance.  If you have malabsorption as occurs in Celiac, then all the B vitamins will be poorly absorbed.  Taking a B Complex in addition to extra thiamine (Benfotiamine) is safe.  The B vitamins and Vitamin C are water soluble.  Any excess is urinated out.  I took a B 50 Complex twice a day to increase absorption.   Try taking Magnesium Threonate (Neuro-Mag by Life Extension).  Magnesium Threonate can get into the brain easily.  The brain needs magnesium, too, but other forms don't cross the blood-brain barrier as well.   The first time I took Magnesium Threonate, it felt like my brain relaxed.  I highly recommend it.   How's your Vitamin D level?

      Thanks @knitty kitty for keeping me thinking about the importance of vitamins. And I appreciate you sending those papers (gives me something for my science brain to work through! I’m a PhD in biology so I like reading these sorts of things). It’s been surprising to see how little is understood about the cause of fibromyalgia. My Vit D went low again on my last blood test so I know I’m back to being deficient there (it did go up for a while but back down again). Whomp whomp. So I’ll be both reading about and taking vitamins. Thanks again for your input. Really appreciate it.

There are estimated to be approximately 50 sequences that evoke a T-cell response of which nearly half are unknown and have no test. Gluten fragments remain that bind to IgA and IgG in vitro but this does not necessarily make them immunotoxic. Also, the fragments are "drastically reduced" by gastrodudenal digestion. PEP enzyme cannot cleave all proline sites and there is a large variation in the amount of residual gluten in gluten reduced beers. I.e. the safety of gluten reduced beer is uncertain.

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty, I really appreciate all the feedback. I have had 2 biopsies of my small intestine that are negative for celiac disease. I have not had the genetic testing though, so that is something I will look into, since the biopsies were done without a prior gluten challenge. I tried one once before an allergy test and was sick for days. I do know that I don’t easily methylate my b vitamins but have to be careful taking methylated versions as they give me too much energy and I can’t sit still or sleep.    I also prefer magnesium glycinate but I only take it in the mornings because I have to take it with food to avoid stomach upset. I’ve often wondered if I have leaky gut syndrome and my symptoms indicate yes. I appreciate hearing what works well for you. I think I’ll focus on benfotiamine and see if I can tolerate it and/or it makes a difference. I really need to find a good nutritionist or naturopath. I’ll keep looking. In the meantime, thank you for your support!
