PPI

I just read somewhere here that a Dr was upset at someone not taking their PPI. This I take for GERD and after my accidental gluten poisoning I couldn't keep anything down for several days. My GERD is still giving me problems 2 weeks on. I'm waiting on an appointment to have my PPI increased. Is it just me?

@Elliemae7395,

PPI's have been scientifically studied and shown to promote CeD. 

GERD is caused by having low gastric juices, hypochlorhydria. 

PPI's lower the production of gastric juices further and disrupt digestion, leaving undigested food available for fermentation by bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract resulting in bloating, wind, and diarrhea or constipation, and SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth).  

Hypochlorhydria is symptomatic of having a deficiency in Niacin Vitamin B 3.  

Discuss with your doctor the benefits of supplementing with B vitamins while healing.

Here's some interesting reading....

Not sure how to go about explaining. During my endoscopy damage to my esophagus was found. (There is a history in my family of peptic ulcers which is why I agreed to the procedure in addition to my colonoscopy in the first place.) My doctor prescribed the PPI at that time. One of my problems had been a dry cough which was like a dry heave. With the PPI there was relief of this cough within days. At my scheduled appointment a few days later my gastroenterologist explained that I had celiacs and the basics of what that means. He told me of the celiacs website. He told never to eat wheat again. He also suggested seeking a dietician. During the pandemic I had so much trouble getting appointments. He slowly cut back my PPI from 20mg 3times a day to 2 times to one time a day. After my gluten poisoning the cough was back. I had not been able to take any of my meds for several days.

Eosinophilic esophagus is an inflammation of the esophagus associated with Thiamine deficiency.

Supplementing with Thiamine and following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet (Paleo Diet) and supplementing with Thiamine has helped mine.

Thiamine and Niacin work together along with the other B vitamins.  Discuss supplementation with your doctor and nutritionist.

      Symptom treatment of gluten exposure with Anti-inflammatories

      By Bronwyn W · Posted

      Hi, Please can I ask for opinions on using Anti-inflammatories for symptom treatment of inadvertent gluten exposure? Should it be part of a foundational treatment plan, upon inadvertent exposure? Kind Regards,  Bronwyn

      TTG IgA and IGA elevated mildy

      By RMJ · Posted

      In testing for celiac disease total IgA is run just to be sure you’re not deficient (in which case the TTG IgA results would not be reliable). Different labs may have slightly different normal ranges, but the units are usually the same and the results can be compared.  In your case, what is meaningful for celiac disease is that you were not deficient in total IgA for either test. Different labs use different units for the TTG IgA test and there are no conversion factors to turn one into the other. In your case, the labs have another difference - one uses a weak positive category and one doesn’t.  The two results really can’t be compared. In each case you’re slightly into the full positive range for that test/lab so in reality your antibodies might not have jumped up at all between these two tests.

      Gluten Free Oats

      Does this mean those could raise IgA and TTG IgA in celiacs?

      TTG IgA and IGA elevated mildy

      By thejayland10 · Posted

      One lab said normal range for IgA is 45-325 and TTG IgA anything above 15 means positive for Anitbody    For this one my IGA was 415 and TTG IgA 16.3    The other lab 3 months later said IgA range is 75-425 and TTG IgA anything below 20 is negative, 20-30 weak positive, 30+ positive.  For this one my IGA was 456 and TTG IgA 30.2 CU

      Gluten Free Oats

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum @Mushroom73!  About 8% of celiacs cross react to the oat protein avenin. That means 92% do not. A likely higher percentage probably cross react to CMP (Cow's Milk Protein) https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC1810502/. Corn, eggs and soy are also common cross reactors. It would be impossible to eliminate all foods that some proportion of the celiac community cross reacts to and still be able to produce meaningful products. I would also add that it is not true that companies catering to the gluten free community put oats in all their products. That is a gross exaggeration. It is true that oats are found in many gluten free products. But I understand that you are frustrated in the sense of many of the gluten-free products that you would like to consume contain oats. There are many in the celiac/gluten sensitive community who feel the same way about dairy and soy which are also common ingredients in gluten-free products.
