Hi,

I just wanted to ask if any of you have had any problems with excessive sweating / persiration or hyperhidrosis.

If so, did it clear up after reducing / eliminating gluten products?

Just trying to worj out if they might be linked.

Thanks for your time

Fred

I can tell you that I had awful nightsweats before I went gluten-free and that I haven't had them in the last gluten-free six months. I haven't ever seen anything about them on a symptoms list, but as I read more and more on these message boards it seems lots of weird symtpoms are related in some way to celiac disease. It could be that your body just gets so haywire from the disease that anything is possible!

I always had excessive night sweats but I thought it was caused by my dog who insists on laying on me every night. Hmmmm, wonder if it is celiac related?

I actually have the opposite problem, and tend not to sweat enough. (Which can be problematic on it's own when you overheat!) But I imagine that if there is any nerve damage that's occured, it could be related, though I don't really know.

I have had excessive sweating during sleep. It went away with a gluten-free diet but comes back if I accidently get some glutton.

For me now, waking up with soaking sheets is an automatic indicator. It means I took in some gluton somewhere (start back-tracking and figure out where) did not sleep well, will be tired most of the day, will be fatigued, and that I'm probably depressed already and will get worse as the day goes on.

I don't know the reason for the night sweating. If I'm careful with the diet, it's not an issue.

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.

      I was just diagnosed at 26 after accidental finding. Any simple tips for newbies? Things a non celiac would never think of? I already went through my prescriptions and identified some medications that have gluten. Is there a beginners guide? Celiac for dummies?

      Would it be rude to ask your age?

      Wow! Thank you @trents I  really appreciate the responses. This line of diagnosis has me questioning a lot of symptoms over the course of my life. Very validating and very much a bummer at the same time.
