Bone Pain

I've read on this forum or someplace about bone pain associated with celiac. I have been having a pain in my left leg from the hip down to the knee, including the joints but also the thigh bone and only at night. Once I get out of bed it goes away & I am not bothered with any pain during the day.

Anyone have any thoughts on this?

;) barb--in the beginning when i was first going gluten-free, i had this kind of pain too--i would even have the pain in dreams and wake crying from the pain--it did get better until i developed an intolerance to soy--when i get too much soy in my system now, the same pain returns and with a vengence--so maybe you are dealing with an intolerance that you havent found yet too or maybe you just need to give yourself more time--deb

Deb:

It sounds like people with celiac develop all sorts of other intolerances. What on earth do they eat????? No grains, no milk, no soy etc etc. Sounds like a good way to starve. :(

I have been gluten-free for about 8 months but still feel tired a lot, & now the aching leg at night. I do take B12 & multivitamins. But I wonder if I am getting enough nutrition. I eat a lot of fruit & rice. And I crave sweets much mroe than I used to, maybe it's because I can't eat desserts, so I eat ice cream instead.

My thoughts on this is I cimplained of pain in my bones from my head to my toes to my doctor for three years and until I found the idea of Celiac he did no evaluation. I suppose a person is "lucky" to have pain isolated to one or more parts of the body;otherwise, doctors are trained that it is all in your head and to ignore it. Sad but true. And I had severe Osteopenia, along with other lab signs they ignored over many years. :blink:

I had read somewhere that if you put a bar of soap under your sheets it takes the pain in your legs away. Anyway, I tried it and it worked!

Hi, Barb;

I, too, have the majority of my bone pain in my hips and thighs. Before I was diagnosed my arms also ached. Now I take 600mg ibuprofen at least twice a day (with food). The pain is much more manageable since going gluten-free, and sleeping with them elevated helps, too.

It's interesting about the other food intolerances...I have some known food allergies (watermelon, waterchestnuts, cashews, bananas, avacados), so I'm going to pay closer attention to any symptoms that coincide with soy.

Thanks, and good luck,

Tammy

      It looks like their most recent clinical trial just finished up on 5-22-2025.

      Dear Scott,  please check the link https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05574010?intr=KAN-101&rank=1 What do you think about it?
    • Scott Adams
      KAN‑101 is still very much in development and being actively studied. It has not been dropped—rather, it is advancing through Phases 1 and 2, moving toward what could become the first disease‑modifying treatment for celiac disease. https://anokion.com/press_releases/anokion-announces-positive-symptom-data-from-its-phase-2-trial-evaluating-kan-101-for-the-treatment-of-celiac-disease/

      Thiamine interacts with all the other B vitamins.  Thiamine and B 6 make a very important enzyme together. With more thiamine and other vitamins available from the supplements your body is absorbing the ones you need more of.  The body can control which vitamins to absorb or not.  You're absorbing more and it's being transported through the blood.   It's common to have both a Thiamine and a Pyridoxine deficiency.  Keep taking the B Complex. This is why it's best to stop taking supplements for six to eight weeks before testing vitamin levels.

      Yes I took a supplement that had B6 in it, low dosage though. I've stopped taking that. B1 doesn't affect other B vitamin levels?
