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.

      Gluten Free Cannabis Edibles

      By ShadowLoom · Posted

      I’ve used tinctures and made my own edibles with gluten-free ingredients to stay safe. Dispensary staff don’t always know about gluten, so I double-check labels or just make my own.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!

      Autoimmune diseases tend to cluster. Many of them are found close together on the chromosomes.

      Just giving another update... I was referred to rheumatology, and they suspect that I may also be dealing with fibromyalgia (it has not been formally diagnosed, but just suggested at this point).  So, I am continuing with the anti-inflammatory diet and vitamins and still working to keep getting rid of all these hidden gluten sources, but I also do have another possible explanation for some of the issues that I'm dealing with.
