Do many celiac disease sufferers feel great sensation to cold and get chilled easily?

I have to wear a sweater when most everyone is comfortable with short sleeve. I'd would get sick if I don't wear extra clothing. Docters cannot find thyroid problem.

I know I did. I would even have a sweater in summer and lots of blankets on the bed. This did stop after I had been gluten-free a while.

Being cold all the time is a symptom of thyroid malfunction, and people with celiac disease are more at risk for thyroid problems.

My coldness went away after I went gluten free and my thyroid function improved.

I do get the chills big time! Both after meals & at night. I actually warm my side of the bed with a heating pad, because otherwise I lie there & shiver--sometimes my teeth chatter!-- while my husband is perfectly comfortable. My thyroid tests normal but I have a hunch there might be a sub-clinical deficiency, because I have some other symptoms too. But it may also be related to anemia, which I definitely have had for years.

After nearly 3 months gluten-free, I'm just beginning to feel some improvement, so be patient!

      Lymphocytic Colitis with Celiac

      By Katerific · Posted

      I was diagnosed with microscopic colitis and celiac a couple of years ago.  The GI doctor prescribed a course of budesonide, which moderately helped until I tapered off.    After a lot of ups and downs over the course of 2 years, I am finally in microscopic colitis remission.  Since I am also diabetic, I was started on metformin and Jardiance.  Metformin by itself helped moderately.  I added Jardiance and I was much better.  I stopped the metformin and relapsed and when I added it back, I regained remission.  I think metformin and Jardiance helped my colitis because they reduce inflammation in the gut.  Metformin is known to favorably modulate the gut microbiome and reduce inflammatory cytokines.  Similarly, emerging evidence supports the anti-inflammatory properties of SGLT2 inhibitors like Jardiance.  Once I was on both, the diarrhea stopped completely, even though nothing else ever worked long-term.  There is a Facebook group that can be very informative and helpful.  Look for "Microscopic Colitis and Lymphocytic Colitis Support Group.  You will find that members of the Facebook group identify other pathways to remission of microscopic colitis.

      Cartilage and rib pain.

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hello, @Mrs Wolfe, I crushed three vertebrae moving a chest of drawers.  I take a combination of Thiamine Vitamin B1, Vitamin B12, and Pyridoxine B6.  Together these vitamins have an analgesic effect.  I think it works better than OTC pain relievers.   I also like  "Takeda ALINAMIN EX Plus Vitamin B1 B6 B12 Health Supplementary from Japan 120 Tablets" .   It's all three vitamins together in one pill.  Works wonderfully!

      Progesterone pills - are they gluten free??

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      It's the Potassium Iodide in the HRT pills that is triggering Dermatitis Herpetiformis and the increased IGG levels.   The thyroid is stimulated by the Potassium Iodide, which stimulates immune cells to make more IGG antibodies.   Thiamine Vitamin B1 helps the thyroid function.  I like Benfotiamine and TTFD Thiamax.
