Soft Palate/Palatoglossal Pain/Redness

Hi! 
 

I was just diagnosed with Celiac after having a variety of symptoms, mostly throat/mouth issues. Since I was just diagnosed I haven’t yet started a gluten free diet. Has anyone else with Celiac had pain/redness of the soft palate and back of the mouth (palatoglossal arch) as a result of eating gluten? I also have a lot of mucus draining down the back of my throat throughout the day, I’ve been burping a lot the past few months, and my throat gets extremely dry at night. I’m curious to see if these issues start to go away when I go gluten free. Any advice is appreciated!

I had very serious sinus drainage/clogged up issues for most of my youth, until I was diagnosed with celiac disease and went gluten-free. In fact I took both food and pollen allergy shots for many years to try to deal with it. Sore throats and the symptoms you described were quite common for me.

The good news in my case is that this did go away after a year or two being gluten-free, and I've never really had this issue since...and so I've "graduated" into being a nose breather!

Welcome to the forum, Emily.

How were you diagnosed with celiac disease?

The problems you describe with you throat, mouth and sinuses sound like they could be related to acid reflux. Reflux can get all the way up into your sinuses and cause irritation/inflammation and also frequent sinus infections. This can happen particularly at night when you are laying for hours in a horizontal position.

Thanks!

My TTg IGA was 100, TTg IGG was 29, Deamidated Gliadin IGA was 60, and Deamidated Gliadin IGG was 68 - all strong positives according to my doctor. I have an endoscopy scheduled as well.

That is so interesting! I’m glad you’re doing better now! Thanks for sharing!

You might also consider making an appointment with an ENT to get those nasal passages and sinuses scoped out.

I recently saw one 😊 They did a laryngoscopy and said things looked pretty good, but that I had signs of laryngopharyngeal reflux. My PCP that did the blood work for celiac said since I’ve been eating gluten that may be causing the reflux issues.

Yes, there is a significant correlation between celiac disease and reflux.

My mouth has also been itchy. Particularly in the back.

I would guess that in addition to celiac disease, Emily, you have some significant food and/or environmental allergies going on.

Happens to me every year when the heating season is on. It can actually be allergy to something in your environment - mucus drainage down the throat is typical and it can irritate the back of your mouth as well. Get a good ENT check up and maybe start popping some antihistamines.

      What would a diagnosis tell me?

      Do you think a multi vitamin would be helpful! Also do symptoms got differently for everyone in regards to running to bathroom? I noticed regular oatmeal sometimes after eating or 1-2 hrs later I gotta go but on gluten-free no urgency. Sometimes I would eat 2 slices whole wheat and no issues for a few days so hard to pinpoint when it hits

      There is not enough information to assess the likelihood of coeliac disease. You'll have to chase this up with the quack. The lab should provide antibody titres and a reference range. They might just have done an EMA test, which is negative/positive and antiquated - a proper IgA-ttG2 test would be more helpful.
