i was wondering if anyone would be willing to start a list of disorders and issues related to celiac?

my dd was dx'd about 3 months ago, figuring she inherited it from somewhere i have been tested(everything was negative but i am gluten-free anyway to support my dd, and it has helped with my "IBS" and fatigue, no surprise there right!), my husband is going next, but i am trying to convince him to go gluten-free after the test anyway just to see if it clears up some of his issues. he's tough to convince tho.

some of his issues include: sleep apnea, restless leg syndrome, irritability, extreme fatigue to the point of disrupting his everyday life, chronic severe allergies.

anyway, i thought if i could show him that some of his problems may be helped or cleared with the diet it might convince him thank you very much in advance~K

You can start here:

https://www.celiac.com/categories/Celiac-Di...-and-Disorders/

But there are so many related symptoms, the way I see it, Celiac can cause virtually any systemic disorder. That is, anything not caused by a bacterium or virus. It just depends on what parts of the intestine get damaged, and to what degree. All your husband's symptoms can be from Celiac, which may or may not be what either of you want to hear.

rice guy,

thx so much for that link! im going to take some more time to read through everything later when i'm not chasing my 4 year old around the house! lol as far as that being what either of us wants to hear...im totally on board if that ends up being his diagnoses, even if its not i am still urging him to try the diet, he's coming around very slowly. he says he's tired of being miserable and that if the gluten-free diet is a pretty good bet as far as helping him feel better than he just might try it. it will be nice to have the info to put right in front of him! thx again!

Here are two more lists, broken into "Definitely Associated w/ celiac disease" & "Probably Assoc".

Since I've had a few off the Probable list, I'd move those to the Definite list if I could.

Definite

      Gluten Sensitivity

      So you you ate wheat products every single day for 50 years without a problem but then in the 90's you discovered that wheat was your problem. That's confusing to me. It seems contradictory. Did you have a problem or not?

      Gluten Sensitivity

      I spent my first 50 years eating wheat products every single day with no ill affects. Being a 6’2” Italian you can imagine what my diet was like and believe me I had an appetite that wouldn’t quit. In the 90’s once I discovered the wheat was my problem I avoided it and no longer had IBS. I seriously doubt I have celiac but I appreciate your input a...

      Gluten Sensitivity

      I would say two things and then I'm done. Many celiacs have been misdiagnosed for years with IBS. Testing for celiac disease requires regular and significant consumption of gluten for weeks/months in order to be valid.

      Latent celiac, need to go gluten free, advice on kitchen "reset?"

      Can the rest of your household eat the food with gluten instead of getting rid of it? Can you create one shelf, or partial shelf, for your new food in the pantry, in the fridge and in the cabinets as a start? My husband is not gluten free so we each have a cabinet, and separate shelves in the fridge. If we have to share space the gluten free foods...

      Gluten Sensitivity

      Thanks for the advice, if my sensitivity comes back i’ll do that but I am 74, in good health for my age and probably have been sensitive to gluten for over 30 years the beginning of which I didn’t even know or suspect It was gluten. I’m seen by my doctor every three months with fasting labs, he knows I avoid gluten and has never suggested I should be conce...

I’ve been eating things I’ve longed for for decades and have never felt better.

My husband is not gluten free so we each have a cabinet, and separate shelves in the fridge. If we have to share space the gluten free foods go on the upper shelves so crumbs with gluten can’t fall onto them. Good luck!

I’m seen by my doctor every three months with fasting labs, he knows I avoid gluten and has never suggested I should be concerned. It is quite possible a doctor did those tests on me 30 years ago, I just don’t remember, if they did and they were negative that’s why I wouldn’t remember. If you are interested I’ll keep you posted, but from what i’ve read there is no cure for genetic celiac disease and right now I’ve never felt worse than diarrhea eating wheat or...
