I would say absolutely. ...whether from associated fatigue, anemia, vitamin deficiency... and I'm sure there are others. So, the stort of it is yes !

Yep I had that as one of my symptoms. Wasn't really a prominant symptom of mine but I did get it sometimes. There are over 200 symptoms associated with celiac so there is a wide variety and everyone can get different ones. Some may not even get symptoms. Do you have celiac? Or suspect you do?

Definitely Yes! It does get better over time with being on the gluten-free diet.

Hi, mmm,

I'm sorry if you are experiencing lightheadedness. :(

People with celiac disease can experience a miraid of symptoms. Many can effect the brain or mind, like brain fog, dizziness, lightheadedness. Phsycological problems as well, like depression. Or worsening of conditions like ADD, ADHD, Bi Polar disorder, schytsophrenia (sp) autism ect.

You can look at the thread on this site for celiac disease and related disorders to get more info.

Make sure you are really completely gluten-free and not getting accidental gluten somewhere. You can also check out the thread on safe and forbidden foods for the celiac.

Good luck,

Wendy

Lots of lightheadedness, dizzyness for me in the dark pre-gluten-free diet days. No longer a problem for me now.

I'm new to this site... I used to get lightheadedness alot before I went gluten-free. The past few days I've been feeling dizzy and having joint pain, very puzzling, since I ALWAYS read the labels of everything I put in my mouth....but for some reason I didn't read the label of the bacon my husband purchased (who's usually GREAT at reading every ingred.)....soy sauce in the bacon! I'm learning everyday about what to eat and what not to eat and learning how to read my body... it's as if I can feel the gluten running through my joints! I feel light-headed right now ;) , there are alot of symptoms, mine are pretty atypical (no-gastro prob.), but lightheadedness is definitely one of mine.

      Sore muscles

      By Eldene · Posted

      I walk fast for fitness, 4 to 6 km per day. I am also 74 years old. Apart from the Celiac challenge, my lifestyle is healthy. I had a sciatiac nerve pinching under my one foot, with inflamation in my whole shin. It was almost cured, when the other shin started paining and burning. I do stretches, use a natural cooling gel and rest my feet. Can Celiac cause muscle pains/inflamation, or is it just over-excercising?

      Trader Joe's grocery prodcuts

      By LovintheGFlife · Posted

      I recently started shopping at a nearby Trader Joe's store. I was surprised at the number and variety of (healthy) gluten-free options sold there. I must admit their low prices are also quite tempting. However, I am curious as to the labeling on all their packages. While none of their products are certified as gluten-free, many are identified as 'GLUTEN FREE' on the packaging. Are these items safe for celiacs? Has anyone tried Trader Joe's products and have there been any adverse reactions?

      Gluten challenge

      By Beverley Ann Johnson · Posted

      HI, my doctor suggested one week of consuming gluten before blood tests.  I have been gluten free for 3 years.  Has anyone been through this and will I get exact results after one week of consuming gluten?  I don't even know if I can do this, if I get sick I am not sure if I can continue, any suggestions??  Thanks in advance.

      Not Sure What to Think

      By trents · Posted

      PPI's can be a wonderful healing agent when used as prescribed on the label which I believe recommends use of up to 8 weeks. But they are like antibiotics in that they are overprescribed and undermonitored. Docs generally prescribe them and then keep prescribing them because they take care of immediate symptoms so well. Physicians are more into treating symptoms than uncovering causes.
