Teeth/gums Hurting

I am not sure this is where I post this but I wanted to ask a couple questions. I have celiac disease, and have been gluten free for a little over a week. Within the week, I have noticed that I have had so many problems come about? Before, I had no signs of Celiac Disease at all. Lately my neck has been killing me, about 1 week now. Which I don't know why and is probably not do to celiac at all? My teeth/gums are a little swollen and hurt really bad. My body aches and it doesn't take much for my muscles to hurt. One day I turned my leg and pulled a muscle in my thigh?????? My knees and cavs hurt running up stairs, and I am only 29 years old. Does anyone know if this has to do with going gluten and my body not being well nourished because of celiac disease. I know these questions are probably really stupid, but I don't really have anyone else to ask. I recently went to the dermatologist and they claim I have rosocae (sp) on the face????? Which, I think is just plain acne so I have been putting a cream on my face for about a week now. I noticed my face was getting a little dry. Last night I took an Ibuprofen because of my neck, and this morning I woke up and my eyes were swollen???? AHHHH, what is going on with me. I feel like I am falling apart since going gluten free and I have NO energy at all??? Anyone have any solutions. I feel like I am making myself crazy because of all this going on and so sudden.

Thanks for any advice.

First....you arent crazy. Many go through "detox" from gluten. I had issues for 6 weeks and then I started feeling great!! So hang in there. Be gentle with yourself while you are healing. Drink lots of water and get plenty of rest. Make sure you are 100% gluten-free (check meds, lipstick, cutting boards, toasters, etc.). Because often symptoms are WORSE when you eat gluten after you have been gluten-free.

A few thoughts for you...

Rosacea is sometimes called "adult acne," but it's not the same thing. Acne is caused by oil and bacteria. Rosacea is caused by inflammation. I also have rosacea... the good news is that since I stopped eating gluten, dairy, and corn it's getting a LOT better. Rosacea can also affect your eyes (it's called "ocular rosacea")... a good thing to ask an opthamologist about.

Celiac disease really can affect your whole body! Some people do notice that they feel worse for the first week or two on the gluten-free diet. It's also possible that you have other things going on... other autoimmune disorders, vitamin and mineral deficiencies, etc... I know it's hard to be patient, but you're off to a great start. Keep paying attention to the signals your body is giving you and you'll get this sorted out. I've been off gluten for four months and I'm still figuring things out ;) SOoooo many things are making sense. It just takes time to read and learn and try things to improve your health.

Thank you so much for your kind replies, it is so nice to know there are people out there like this.. It is so comforting to have read your replies. Although my 6 year old has celiac also and my other two are getting checked soon, I feel so alone for some reason. Again, thank you so much for your kind words.

Hope all is doing well :)

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen1Nc7EtAlJyJbU8EhB89ElCGFPRavEQkTFHv9V2Zh1EMAPRno7UajBpLCQ-1JfC5jKUyzfgsf7jN5L6yfZSgjhnwEbg6KKwWrKeghga8W_CAhEEw9N0.eDBrhYWsjgEFud6ZE03iun0-AEaGfNS1q4ILLjZz7Fs&dib_tag=se&keywords=buckwheat%2Bgroats&qid=1769980587&s=grocery&sprefix=buchwheat%2Bgroats%2Cgrocery%2C249&sr=1-4&th=1 Takes about 10 minutes to cook. Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
