Ulcerative Colitis?

wondering if anyone here has ulcerative colitis in addition to celiac. I was diagnosed with celiac first. the UC has been diagnosed for about 1 year. I've never been 100% in remission, but I've been doing okay with Asacol. Now it looks like prednisone will be in my very immediate future :(

hi, can i ask what your symptoms are? i was diagnosed with celiac about 8 years ago...been on a gluten-free diet since. but for the past year or so, i have been having "stomach" "bowel" problems. had some blood testing done to check levels for celiac...all within normal range. gi dr. is treating me for a pancreatic insufficiency with creon. it seemed to have been working a few months ago and now it seems to not be working as much. i think i have colitis so i am curious as to what your symptoms are? i know from some internet surfing that people with celiac can also be disposed to have pancreatic issues, colitis, etc.

      Try a multivitamin maybe it will cover what you are deficient in.

      Agreed, and I can't remember exactly and haven't got time to check, but I think my blood didn't normalise for eight years! For years I read this forum thinking why can't I get my numbers down - everyone else manages to.   But my gastroenterologist didn't seem to worry about it, which makes me think he either thought I wasn't complying to the diet, or he'd seen similar cases.

      Yes, being off gluten for 3 months would likely yield negative results. To get accurate testing redone you would need to restart gluten consumption for several weeks (the "gluten challenge") to the tune of at least 10g of gluten daily (about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread).

      That is one of the tests covered in the article I linked you above.

      Antibodies to Deamidated gliadin peptides.  It is another celiac antibody test. The main test is the one you had, TTG,  But a full panel will also include DGP IgA and IgG.  I was positive on all of them!
