Would hives be a symptom of celiac disease. About 2 years ago I had a severe case of hives for about a year. My eyes would swell and i would have huge patches of hives all around my body. It was so bad that my chest started to hurt. I know hives you never know why you get them. But could hives be a symptom of celiac disease. I get them on occasion, but not as severe as I used to.

Hives are an allergic reaction. Something you were exposed to (pollen, detergent, soap, animal dander, etc.) was causing a histamine reaction in the skin. Hives are far more likely to be a contact allergy than a food allergy.

I to have had hives. I know that it is a allergic reaction but I get them sometimes when I eat not often but then I can eat the same thing the next day and not have a reaction. I have had a positive blood test for celiac (not sure which) just waiting on the biopsy now. Does anyone else have this happen to them?

Hives can be from food allergies and if you are getting hives from a food allergy, then you are at risk for anaphylaxis. Not something to mess around with. You need allergy testing to find out what you are allergic to and avoid it.

My son is very allergic to walnuts and when he accidentally ate them and got hives all over his body we were rushed to the E.R. We carry an epipen everywhere we go.

I wanted to add- keep Benadryl on hand for them and take it as soon as they start.

I get hives as well. I was just diagnosed with celiac's disease, and the nurse told me today that my biopsy confirmed it. I noticed that my hives would come at times when I was really stressed. I got them around November last year, they weren't as bad. But before they would cover my whole body. And honestly I have no clue why!

You can be allergic to weird things and not know it. My grandmother was getting hives all over her arms. It turned out she was allergic to newspaper ink. She started wearing dish gloves to read the newspaper and it all went away.

My son gets hives (and swelling, etc) from dairy. He's considered anaphylactic to dairy, and we carry benadryl and epipens.

I occasionally get hives if I get gluten. Sometimes from sulfites - doc put me on Imitrex, which is a sulfate drug for migraines - and I wound up with some major problems breathing!

Okay so I just learned something. This is very interesting and I had no idea.

So autoimmune disorders CAN cause hives. Hmmm the things you learn. Yay, another symptom we can add to our list. Let's just keep piling them on shall we?

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      By Russ H · Posted

      This treatment looks promising. Its aim is to provoke immune tolerance of gluten, possibly curing the disease. It passed the phase 2 trial with flying colours, and I came across a post on Reddit by one of the study volunteers. Apparently, the results were good enough that the company is applying for fast track approval.  Anokion Announces Positive Symptom Data from its Phase 2 Trial Evaluating KAN-101 for the Treatment of Celiac Disease https://www.reddit.com/r/Celiac/comments/1krx2wh/kan_101_trial_put_on_hold/

      Gluten related ??

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.
