Symptoms after ingesting gluten

[Juliana82]

Does anyone have bleeding after eating gluten?

You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not very common:

Welcome to the forum @Juliana82!

Bleeding where?

Thanks for the articles on seronegative celiac disease. As I recall, one of our moderators is seronegative and has been faithful to draw our attention to this phenomenon at different times. The heterozygous factor seronegative celiac disease is an important factoid I believe.

@Juliana82,

Is the bleeding occurring when you throw up?  Or with bowel movements?  Constipation?  Is it bright red or black and tarry?  Anal fissures?  Crohn's or Colitis?  Alcohol consumption?  

Diabetes, Thiamine deficiency and anemia can cause false negatives.  Most diabetics are deficient in Thiamine.  Thiamine deficiency can also occur due to high calorie malnutrition, eating lots of carbohydrates but insufficient Thiamine from dietary sources.
