Lymphocytic Colitis

I used to post frequently but my computer crashed, so I had to start over with a new 'name'. I used to be Anerissara. Anyway, I have been seeing a good GI doc and biopsies show that i have Lymphocytic (sp?) Colitis. She says this frequently goes along with people who have Celiac's. Anyone else have it? Anyone have any sort of success in getting rid of it? If I am totally, completely gluten free I still have diarrhea. If I have a speck of gluten, I have to camp out in the bathroom for a week and also have miserable bloating, cramps and pain. On a 'good' day it's just diarrhea once a day...and that's on medication for the colitis! The only thing I've found that helps is taking Pepto pills, 8 a day. I'm not so sure I want to go through life downing that much pepto every day!

Could this be another allergy? Does anyone know if this sort of colitis can be caused by an intolerance to something other than wheat? I'm at wit's end with this. I feel like if i'd have caught the Celiac's much earlier, then maybe my gut wouldn't be so messed up now.

      Thank you that’s really helpful, hopeful won’t have to have a biopsy.

      That means the normal range (i.e. not celiac disease) would be a result less than 14.99.  Your result is WAY above that. Some gastroenterologists would diagnose that as celiac disease even without a confirming biopsy because it is more than ten times the top of the normal range.

      Diagnosis and further testing Celiac

      By Redanafs · Posted

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.
