onset of recurrent sickness 10 yrs after diagnoses


cals

Recommended Posts

cals Newbie

Hi everyone any ideas or advice appreciated, I’m 24 an have had celiac for over 10 years (I was diagnosed at 10 or 11) I have always followed a strict gluten free diet and went back to healthy very quickly after diagnoses. Recently (especially since Covid) I have been getting sick consistently every 2-4 weeks throughout the year with colds, flus, stomach bugs and every illness under the sun. My celiac titers are good, and I’m tested every 3 months. According to my blood tests I am perfectly healthy. I have been having a hard time gaining weight, and am very lethargic and tired everyday. My sister also has type 1 diabetes so the possibility for other autoimmune conditions is high. I live in the Boston area so any recommendations for specialists are greatly appreciated.

      Ichthus is the Greek word (using English letters) for fish. The letters in the actual Greek word form an acronym that come from the first letters in the Greek words for "Jesus", "God's Son," "Savior".   Now, back to your family's denial of your celiac disease, I think you can relate to this:

      Thanks for the kind words. It's hard to convince my doctor to investigate further because of a negative blood test and he only tested me for one marker. 🙃 I've come to the point where I need to take this into my own hands because the doctors are infuriating and it's not going anywhere. I've been gluten free for a week and feeling better but I was still consuming dairy and I think that's what's backing me up. Next week no dairy introduced.

      Hello mantooth nice to meet you it's so uncanny what you wrote you sound just like me even the back issues are exactly the same and I'm new here too trying to find out if I have the same had I too have been struggling to find answers with my docters I don't have a diagnosis but I've been struggling like forever and was told ibs and health aniexty was my problem but on researching I've come to the conclusion it's probably more because i cut gluten and lactose out for 6 months and  it was a incredible change for me so although I can't help with diagnosis I can say your not alone in trying  to find answers 😊
