Anxious again…

Hi 

I’m newly diagnosed and for the last 3 months every single day I’m thinking about my celiac. I’ve been in London for 3 months now and going back to LA tomorrow,but I feel even more anxious,because the day I got my diagnose I had a flight to London so never got a real chance to talk to my doctor face to face only through the  emails. I will have my appointment with my primary doctor to check my blood work. Never had any issues and now I’m panicking about my results. Googling nonstop and results scares me even more. Is it true that people with celiac are at risk of rare type of lymphoma? I’m so scared that I will become disable. Can I ask how long ago you were diagnosed and if you feel OK now or did you get additional health problems with celiac?

thank you 

Saba

The intestinal lymphoma you are worried about is still rare, even among celiacs, and the good news is that research has shown that once you go gluten-free that risk drops to near normal after a few years. The articles on this are in this category:

      Gluten Sensitivity

      Hello. Do you mind saying what symptoms led the doctors to test for bacteria in your blood?

      Gluten Sensitivity

      So you you ate wheat products every single day for 50 years without a problem but then in the 90's you discovered that wheat was your problem. That's confusing to me. It seems contradictory. Did you have a problem or not?

      Gluten Sensitivity

      I spent my first 50 years eating wheat products every single day with no ill affects. Being a 6’2” Italian you can imagine what my diet was like and believe me I had an appetite that wouldn’t quit. In the 90’s once I discovered the wheat was my problem I avoided it and no longer had IBS. I seriously doubt I have celiac but I appreciate your input a...

      Gluten Sensitivity

      I would say two things and then I'm done. Many celiacs have been misdiagnosed for years with IBS. Testing for celiac disease requires regular and significant consumption of gluten for weeks/months in order to be valid.

      Latent celiac, need to go gluten free, advice on kitchen "reset?"

      Can the rest of your household eat the food with gluten instead of getting rid of it? Can you create one shelf, or partial shelf, for your new food in the pantry, in the fridge and in the cabinets as a start? My husband is not gluten free so we each have a cabinet, and separate shelves in the fridge. If we have to share space the gluten free foods...

I’ve been eating things I’ve longed for for decades and have never felt better.

My husband is not gluten free so we each have a cabinet, and separate shelves in the fridge. If we have to share space the gluten free foods go on the upper shelves so crumbs with gluten can’t fall onto them. Good luck!
