My 9 year old daughter has had Asthma since she was 6 months old and was dx with gluten sensitivity last Sept.

I have asthma and celiac disease. From what I understand asthma is one of a cluster of problems having to do with the auto-immune system....a very wide variety of issues, everything from eczema and psoriasis to arthritis and fibramyalgia. Makes sense I guess ;)

Asthma, also being an issue with the immune system, has been correlated with celiac, though not incredibly strongly. She may see some improvement in her asthma after being gluten-free long enough. For me, it's not that so much as avoiding my triggers. ;-)

There are three of us in my household with asthma...a couple of us really badly. Once on the gluten-free diet, it took several months, but the asthma is stable and rarely rears its ugly head anymore. I can almost guarantee when my 13 yr old daughter has gotten into something while out with her friends. She bloats up, becomes irritable, wets the bed again, and can't breathe. Then comes the itching and a breakout. The really bad thing is that some extended family members don't even believe in celiac so when she is at their house they won't even attempt to accomodate her needs. Anybody else deal with that one? I can't exactly tell her she can't see her grandparents!

I thought I should warn everyone. I thought I had a cold and it ended up being pneumonia. I had waited two weeks to go to the doctor, because I tend to push myself. I hadn't thought that due to a compromised immune system we might be more prone to it.

You should also look to milk as an asthma trigger.

      I have trouble with nausea. It often starts when I’m anxious about something (home repairs, sick dog) but continues long after the home is repaired or the dog is healthy again. When it happens I eat less and lose weight.  My gastroenterologist suggested ginger or peppermint tea. I don’t know if that will work or not because I haven't had the problem since she suggested it.

      Hello  I'm not sure what to think . Seems no matter what I do I get sick. I had some yogurt with only 2 grams of sugar and is labeled gluten free ...the strawberry version seemed to really set me off My jaw is burning as well as my stomach and my feet.  Horrible pain..plus acid reflux and nausea... sensitivity to touch pain. ..yikes !! I don't know if it's from the lactose in the yogurt or if I'm getting an ulcer  This condition can make you question yourself quite a bit.  Then if you are not sure the anxiety comes 😞 Does any of these symptoms sound familiar to anyone? The neuropathy is quite intense.  What do you eat or drink after this happens  Open to suggestions  Thank you

      Of course my son is on a 100% gluten free diet.  I wish his symptoms were not debilitating as there are right now.  He cannot work, even when a miniscule of cross contamination occurs.  It's not just GI distress, but intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc.  It's literally neurological inflammation.  Not to be taken lightly here.  We have sought out many other possible ways to cope during this window of time (8 months!!!!)  without success.   AN-PEP does not help and seems like studies on this are not well researched.  So, we are trying this out because research shows some promising results.  And, all participants showed no cravings afterwards, no signs of addiction.  The patch is different than the oral route such as smoking, vaping, gum, pouch, etc.

      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-Free.

      Hi all  I was diagnosed Coeliac a few years ago and follow a gluten free diet. The list of foods that I can eat without a problem grows shorter on a weekly basis. [I also have diabetes and asthma also].  BUT the reason I am posting this is because I seem to struggle with nausea quite a lot, which is really quite debilitating, and I was wondering if others suffer from nausea, even if following a gluten free diet.
