Do I Have Celiac's?

Hey guys!

This is my first post, and I was just curious about this. I have had a gluten, sugar, and dairy intolerance for a few years now. I am a 17 year old, healthy, active male.

When I eat gluten, I feel congested and get lots of mucous in my throat. I also develop halitosis (bad breathe). Is this just a gluten intolerance or do I have Celiac's Disease?

Thanks in advance!

Welcome and it could be a gluten allergy.

You'll need testing to determine. Go to an allergist first and see what they find. If nothing, you can proceed to Celiac testing too.

I agree you need to see an allergist. The symptoms you are manifesting are seen in allergies. It may not be the gluten you are eating but the grain itself, ie wheat. I would not consume the suspected food until you see an allergist. The mucous in your throat could worsen and cause your throat to close. Monitor your food and eliminate the suspected food. See the allergist for testing. Good luck.

      Newly Diagnosed

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Gary Libby! This might be helpful: https://www.celiac.com/forums/forum/27-gluten-free-recipes-cooking-tips/ Also, just "google" for the gluten free version of something you like and want to try. For instance, google "gluten free recipe for meatloaf" or "gluten free recipe for tuna casserole".  There are also gluten free cookbooks available. There are a bunch of them offered on Amazon. The most important thing is to get a good handle on what gluten is and where and how it is hidden in food products. Many things you already eat are naturally gluten free but many things you would never expect to find gluten in will have it. For examples of the latter, Campbell's...

      Pepsid alternative

      By milana · Posted

      Hi, is Pepsid safe for those with celiac? If not ( and I belive it is not gluten-free) what are other alternatives? I was not able to find anything but gluten-free tums in CVS. But I really need famotidine. Thank you

      Are there any recipes or diet information on gluten free meals to cook..I'm not a very good cook so the simpler the better. PS. Do you feel rough/sickly 80% of the time with this disease. Thx

      Thank you Scott - I can’t think of much that’s changed diet wise but I’ll definitely try to see if any of this works and probiotics are a great idea thank you!

      4 Years and very little progress

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hello there @maylynn  I'm a slow healer from the UK.  I sympathise.  Despite three endoscopies which showed nothing wrong, I frequently suffered from a very sore stomach, bloating, feeling queasy.   For some time I was taking the wrong iron supplement (Floradix instead of Floravital - the former has gluten in it, but the latter none).  But I would say even very little iron from an approved source made my stomach sore, I think it can be quite irritating. Perhaps that is an issue for you? Oats (the gluten-free pure ones) were an issue for many years (now fine).   Even though my endoscopy findings did not reflect any problems with healing, or any other issues, I self-diagnosed...
