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 ?

      I have been diagnosed with Microscopic Colitis (LC) for quite a few years, so I have been gluten-free and DF.  I would like to get tested for Celiac Disease because of the possibility of cross contamination and colon cancer.  And if you were hospitalized and didn't have a celiac diagnosis you could not get gluten-free food, I don't know if that is true or not.  Also because there is chance of colon cancer so I want to know if I have Celiac Disease and need to be on very restrictive diet.  The only testing I did was a sigmoid scope and Enter Lab but no gene testing.  I know I can go back to eating gluten for a few months, but I would worry you would have to stay home for the few months while getting gluten.  What other options do I have?  Should I do the gene testing?  Maybe through Entero Lab?  Any other tests?  How important is it to have Celiac diagnosed? Thank you! Barb

      Take it easy! I was just prompting you for some clarification.  In the distillation process, the liquid is boiled and the vapor descends up a tube and condenses into another container as it cools. What people are saying is that the gluten molecules are too large and heavy to travel up with the vapor and so get left behind in the original liquid solution. Therefore, the condensate should be free of gluten, no matter if there was gluten in the original solution. The explanation contained in the second sentence I quoted from your post would not seem to square with the physics of the distillation process. Unless, that is, I misunderstood what you were trying to explain.

      No they do not contradict each other. Just like frying oil can be cross contaminated even though the oil doesn't contain the luten protein. The same is the same for a distilled vinegar or spirit which originally came from a gluten source. Just because you don't understand, doesn't mean you can tell me that my sentences contradict each other. Do you have a PhD in biochemistry or friends that do and access to a lab?  If not, saying you don't understand is one thing anything else can be dangerous to others.

      The reason that it triggers your dermatitis herpetiformis but not your celiac disease is because you aren't completely intolerant to gluten. The celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis genes are both on the same chronometer. Dermatitis herpetoformus reacts to gluten even if there's a small amount of cross contamination while celiac gene may be able to tolerate a some gluten or cross contamination. It just depends on the sensitivity of the gene.

      @Mynx, you say, "The reason this is believed is because the gluten protein molecule is too big to pass through the distillation process. Unfortunately, the liquid ie vinegar is cross contaminated because the gluten protein had been in the liquid prior to distillation process." I guess I misunderstand what you are trying to say but the statements in those two sentences seem to contradict one another.
