Possible Celiac Syptoms


jharris

Recommended Posts

jharris Newbie

I was diagnosed with indeterminate colitis a year ago. A very sensitive GI told me that I wouldnt get better and I would likely get worse. I decided not to go back to her. I was taking a drug called Asacol for inflammation in my colon. I still had cramps diarrhea bloating and bleeding. I also get raised itchy welts on the palms of my hands and frequently have canker sores in my mouth. When I learned of celiac I decided to cut out gluten and see what happened. My cramps subsided, I was going to the restroom less frequently and there was less blood and no bloating. I also stopped taking the medications and my syptoms didnt worsen. This was after only two weeks. I decided to get the blood test to know for sure so I ate bread two days ago and pizza last night. I woke up this morning with a lump in my chest, I can barely swallow (possibly indegestion). One of the lympnodes in my neck is severly swollen and over the past two days the welts on my hand have flared up worse than ever. One of my questions is, is it possible for symptoms to subside in two weeks and do my syptoms today sound like they could be from the reintroduction of gluten? Im really nervous about the swollen lympnodes.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Im very big on nateral remedies and just read that my go to herb is a no no and was wondering if factual or fiction. I read on Google, I know don't read or take to heart, however it stated that Echinacea isn't good for those with compromise autoimmune because it can cause inflammation. Has anyone else heard of this?Ive been battling sibo so wondering if any connection though haven't been religious on my vitamins these last several months because of testing ect.Sibo medications im allergic,the last few prescribed. Gi  dr dropped me but took me back.Im frustrated too but its the autoimmune part .

      Pardon me, I stand corrected.  I did find yet another blood test for thyroid function. TSH W/REFLEX TO FT4:  2.91 mIU/L  (Range: 0.40 - 4.50) As you can see, I was within the acceptable range when the test was performed.

      I am curious: What was your initial level at? How many daily IUs were you taking via supplements and for how long? What did your level drop to? How many daily IUs are you taking now via supplements? Regards, Known1

      Ive been dealing with skin issues and been told it was staph because I was employed as a bus driver during that horrid time that im still actively healing from currently years later. Biopsies they don't want to say its inconclusive they say.Their creams don't work.I do notice Yarrow Pom from Doterra works but of course thats expensive.Prayers

      Welcome to the celiac.com community @MoniqueCham! Celiac disease damages the villous lining of the small bowel but, as far as I know, doesn't affect the underlying smooth muscle tissue of the bowel.
