Yesterday, when I was at my annual physical with my family doctor, she had a resident with her so I definitely was an awesome case study! Well, when I was giving a rundown of my history to the resident, I mentioned that once I went gluten free, both my anxiety (panic attacks) and heart palpitations went away. My family doctor said she couldn't understand how going gluten-free could stop my panic attacks. ????? Oy....... <_<

I am searching for any research articles that would show a connection for her...... If anyone has any, can they post it? Thanks!

PubMed is a good database to use when searching for medical papers. Physicians are often more likely to accept info from these sources because most (or maybe all??) of the research papers in that database are from peer-reviewed scientific journals.

Here is a link for 1 paper I found when I entered 2 key words in a PubMed search (ie anxiety AND celiac).

Reference: Aliment Pharmacol Ther. 2004 Oct 1;20(7):777-82.

Title: "Psychological support counselling improves gluten-free diet compliance in coeliac patients with affective disorders."

Authors: Addolorato G, De Lorenzi G, Abenavoli L, Leggio L, Capristo E, Gasbarrini G.

Affiliation: Institute of Internal Medicine, Catholic University of Rome, Rome, Italy.

email: g.addolorato@rm.unicatt.it

BACKGROUND: "Anxiety and depression are common features of coeliac disease.... <snip>

The remainder of the abstract can be found by going to the link (above). If you have a medical library near you- they might have this journal or otherwise your library might be able to get a copy of the paper from a university medical school library.

Good luck- you might find more articles by entering some different search words: ie affective disorder, panic attack, etc.

Hope you find the type of paper you are looking for.

      confirmed via biopsy, quite depressed

      By wellthatsfun · Posted

      i am australian. we do have plenty of substitutes, but most are very expensive compared to the originals. i believe i'll just stick to home cooked meals and not have many treats at all. it's sad but it's just so much easier. also, ive heard far too many horror stories of people ordering gluten free food from restaurants and cafés, explicitly telling servers and kitchen staff that cross contamination is a strict no go, and they still get very sick. until i find a reasonably priced fully gluten free kitchen somewhere, i am not eating out for my safety and sanity.

      Gluten Sensitivity

      By The Logician · Posted

      To Trent’s, yes, from what i’ve read it is not uncommon for digestive systems to become less tolerant to gluten over time. Many types of sensitivity or allergies arise in older people who never had a problem. I don’t see why you are focusing on anything but the fact that after years of my sensitivity to gluten, for whatever reason , it has disappeared after a bout of antibiotics. What i’ve read is antibiotics can make gluten sensitivity worse. In any event, in my case, if I can still eat all the wheat products I want with no reaction after a month or more since my hospital stay this is something that should be investigated. Time will tell.

      Gluten Sensitivity

      By The Logician · Posted

      I had a UTI, blood cultures are standard to insure that the infection does not get in the bloodstream which can lead to sepsis and death. In my case there was bacteria in my blood which necessitated 48 hours of antibiotic IV

      Finally got in to doctor to get my referral and I lucked out and got into Gastro the same day - question about different transglutaminase results

      By Wends · Posted

      Hi Cameo674. just read your post. Well wishes to a correct diagnosis so that you can get on track to healing and feeling better. Personally I know it’s good to have the eosinophilic disorder ruled out too, as this can show anti-ttg igA antibodies too. But usually without the anti-gliadin antibodies unless gliadin is an allergen for you. Thanks for posting the link to look up SNPs rs… numbers on another post. Was useful. Looking at your result, ”Celiac Associated HLD-DQ Typing: DQA1* Value: 05; DQA1*DQA11 Value: 05; DQB1* Value: 02; DQB1-DQB11 Value: 02; Celiac Gene Pairs Present Value: Yes; Celiac HLA Interpretation Value: These genes are permissive for celiac disease.  However, these genes can also be present in the normal population. Testing performed by SSOP.  So google failed me.  I think these results basically say I have genes, but everybody has these genes so this test was just to confirm that there is a vague possibility?  Maybe this test result explains why I do not have the horrible symptoms most individuals with celiac have?  I told the GI my assumption is that I am just gluten intolerant since I do not have the pain? So maybe this test explains why I have antibodies?” To me it reads.that you carry the high risk HLADQ2.5 haplotype.
