Confused About Celiac, Colitus, Candida

OK so I know I got celiac, or at least gluten intolerance, and my gastro doctor said I have a mild case of colitus. So what is it? Is the celiac disease causing the colitus? Or is the candida im assuming I have causing the leaky gut in which is giving me colitus which in turn gave me a autoimmune disease celiac?

Its all confusing I started the SCD diet as of yesterday but its all so confusing what I got and dont got...colitus, leaky gut, celiac, candidas..?

Has anyone done the SCD diet and come out totaly healed?

The diet is good for all of those conditions and YES they are all related. "itis" just means inflammation.

I am still healing on SCD, but have seen great improvements so far. :)

Please ask your doctor what type of colitis you have been diagnosed with. The ulcerative type can lead to complications so you need to know what to watch out for.

Another type of colitis is microscopic colitis, which is a thickening of the lining of the colon. This type is sometimes associated with Celiac.

I'm currently being treated for MC--the goal is to put it into remission, since there's no cure.

      Thanks you for this info! I will definitely do more research on it!

      Her poop is totally normal since going gluten free. Once or twice per day.  She eats a lot of fruits and veggies. No juice. She said the squeezing is in the spot where her food goes in her belly. Definitely not dehydrated. She drinks tons of water.

      Hurrah for an official diagnosis!   You may want to put the whole family on gluten free, as a preventative measure for the ones not testing positive right now.  Remember, exposure to gluten triggers the Celiac genes your kids have inherited from you.  Keeping them gluten free now, even though they don't test positive right now, can delay triggering Celiac Disease development in them.

      @annirosex, Get your Vitamin D level checked.  Low Vitamin D can mess up menstrual cycles.  Vitamin D at healthy levels (80-100) acts as a hormone and regulates your immune system.  Thiamine Vitamin B 1 is needed to activate Vitamin D, so adding thiamine in the form Benfotiamine would be beneficial.

      Thank you! I saw a different provider this week who took one look at all my medical information and declared it was celiac in the first 5 minutes of the appointment. I am still a bit in shock but so very thankful to have an official diagnosis. The doctor told me to have my children tested and one of them came back with a "weak positive" TTG IgA! Not sure what to think about that! This week has been a wild ride. Thankfully this website has such great information! I've been going through all the do's and don't's of cross contact etc.
