Hi everyone :)

I have some tendon issues for 6 years i m just 30 right now. I was a computer eng. It s started in my both lateral elbows(vit d was 4 in these years), doctors said because of the computer. than started my medial elbows than my knees than my wrists than fingers than my ankles and toes and my all foot. I quit my job. My aaall blood tested are fine. Ca, P, vit D etc levels normal..  There is no clue for roumatoid semptoms. I have no inflammation in my blood and no swelling etc. Doctors just say i ve hypermobility syndrom but actually not that bad. I was looking for solution and found this website. I read here some articles aboud tendonitis and celiac but we re in 2021 now the posts are in 10 years ago :)i Will start to go pilates this week and start a gluten diet but i wonder, is anybody here have same problem and fixed it with a diet? 

thanks much 

Have a healthy days !

You say you have no inflammation in your blood. Not sure what you mean by that. There are specific tests for celiac disease that measure antibodies produced by the disease: https://celiac.org/about-celiac-disease/screening-and-diagnosis/screening/. Have you had any of these tests run. Particularly the tTG-IGA? Before you get too far into eating gluten free, realize that for these tests to be valid you would need to be eating regular amounts of gluten for 6-8 weeks.

I mean some blood tests were done like Crp, rf (i think it measures inflammation of the body ..?) And doctors / i went zillion doctors/ said you dont have something inflammatory. Yesterday i asked for celiac tests to the doctor but he just done ttg , i m waiting for the result. Yes i read this forum that i need to gluten for validation of the test. I ve never tried gluten diet yet. Thank you for your reply

Please feel free to share your ttg test results when you get them. Also, keep in mind that there are two conditions: 1) Celiac disease, which about 1% of people have; 2) Non-celiac gluten sensitivity, which ~10% of people have. 

Currently there is not test for non-celiac gluten sensitivity, so if your tests are negative, you may still want to try a gluten-free diet to see if it helps you.

I got my tests: 

Anti endomisium anticor 2.7 u/ml

Anti gliadin igg 2

Transglutaminase igg 1.7 

But as you said,  i have had gluten free diet for 4 days. If i feel more comfortable i will write here again several months later...        +my b12 levels are always around 200 and b12 is never suggested, because actually its always in its reference value. But some doctors said keep b12 values between 600-1000 , so i will try to elevate it. I dont know and dont think there is a link between b12 levels and tendon problems but i m just trying to find a solution, i hope . 

Thank you.

Can you share the reference levels for each test, as each lab has different cut of levels that denote celiac disease?

      Celiac friendly probiotics

      In response to your questions regarding probiotics. I have had Celiac for 40 years. Stomach issues: digestion, IBS to chronic constipation, bloat after eating anything. I was unable to eat a healthy variety of foods, tried probiotics supplements - some made me worse, others made no difference. After reading about people with Crones, IBS, etc, who made...

      Hi Katht - I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was...

      Advice while waiting for testing

      Hello, I'm relatively new to this, so I'm hoping to get some advice. I went gluten-free for most of April and felt the best I've ever felt. I’ve been experiencing strange symptoms since last August, but they all disappeared when I eliminated gluten. However, to get accurate blood test results, I’m back on gluten for a month (all of May), and I’m hon...

      Celiac friendly probiotics

      By Florence Lillian · Posted

      In response to your questions regarding probiotics.  I have had Celiac for 40 years.  Stomach issues: digestion, IBS to chronic constipation, bloat after eating anything.  I was unable to eat a healthy variety of foods, tried probiotics supplements - some made me worse, others made no difference.  After reading about people with Crones, IBS, etc, who made their own probiotics I started making Milk Kefir: not water Kefir. There are 10 probiotics in milk KEFIR. After 3 weeks I was able to eat more, no gas, no IBS.  If you have a computer just ask for videos on making milk Kefir. I branched out and make my own Kombucha for even more probiotics. I do not make my yogurt because there are only about four probiotics in that. I started this when I was 82 and I still make my own Kefir and Kombucha. My stomach issues were fixed with the Milk Kefir alone. If you decide to try making it, make certain you order MILK GRAINS. The finished product tastes a bit like Buttermilk. I hope this helps in your journey to good health.

      Hi Katht -  I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal  function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was very true for me. I am still elimination foods from my diet. One person suggested you keep a food diary and that is a good idea but it is probably best just to do an elimination diet. There are several ne and maybe one for celiacs. I used one for a while and started with plain rice and zucchini and then added back other foods to see if I reacted or not. That helped a great deal but what I did not realise that it would only very small amounts of some foods to cause inflammation in my intestine. Within the last few years I have stopped eating any trace amounts of hot peppers, corn and soy(mostly in supplements) and nuts, (the corn in Tylenol was giving me stomach aches and the nuts were causing foot pains). Starting an elimination diet with white rice is better than brown rice that has some natural toxins. In addition it is very important to drink sufficient plain water. You can find out how much to drink for your height and weight online. I do have difficulty drinking 48 ounces of water but just recently have found an electrolyte supplement that helps me stay well hydrated, Adding the water and electrolytes may reduce muscle cramps and gag spams you wrote about. . Also buy some anti-gluten enzyme capsules to take with meals. I use GliadinX advertised here. These are a lot of things to do at one time as they reflect my 20 years of experience. I hope you do what you can manage to do over time. Good luck and take care.

I’ve been experiencing strange symptoms since last August, but they all disappeared when I eliminated gluten. However, to get accurate blood test results, I’m back on gluten for a month (all of May), and I’m honestly feeling miserable. I’ve been dealing with joint pain, bloating, diarrhea, and just overall discomfort. Does anyone have tips on how to manage these symptoms during this month? What has helped you with joint pain?
