Anyone Have Info On Sacroiliitis & Celiac?

Yesterday I found info relating celiac disease and sacroiliac joint dysfunction. One study showed 64% of celiacs have sacroiliitis and another gave a 70% figure. I just about fell over, because my gastrointestinal symptoms began at about the same time as major SI joint problems. No hurry to respond, but would be interested to hear from others regarding this issue.

About 3 years ago I started having lower back pain around the tail bone. X-rays showed arthritis. Last year I had pain in my legs that started in my groin area and went down my thighs. I was diagnosed with celiac a year ago from blood tests and then from a biopsy about 6 weeks ago.

I'll have to search the net for more information because I did not know there could be a correlation.

Thanks

My husband and I both had major problems with our sacroiliac joints before diagnosis, with many chiropractic visits. Of course, we had both been in MV accidents, and would never have thought of connecting it with celiac. :unsure:

I was diagnosed with SI joint arthritis about 4 - 5 years ago. My tests are coming back normal for celiac. Still waiting on the genetic and the biopsy of my rash.

Can you include the link to the article you read?

I had fallen very hard on my backside when roller skating years ago when I was a teenager and I attributed it to that.

      Celiac attack confusion and anxiety

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi all ! Can a celiac attack be so intense that it causes your entire body to work in reverse? Meaning really bad pain,  neuropathy and muscle,  jaw pain,  the stomach issues , Horrible anxiety and confusion??  I had a Tums and you would think I ate poison. My jaw and stomach did not like it . Not the norm for me. Things that are simple are just out of control. Anyone ever have this happen??  I'm trying to figure out what I ate or did to bring on a celiac like attack. I had an idea before but yesterday I didn't have any gluten unless it was in a medication ?! Any positive suggestions ??  Thank you

      Gluten free stuff

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      Gluten free stuff

      By trents · Posted

      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.
