Similarities To Endometriosis

Hi,I was over a friends house who has been diagnosed with endometriosis and we were discussing our diets.

We found out that we both have been avoiding gluten, soy, and lactose. I had a doctor(a few years ago) inform me that they believed I had endometriosis but I was unable to get the treatment (due to insurance) and also around this time I was diagnosed with a variety of allergies so I had started allergy shots and was working on perfecting my diet.

I never gave it a moments thought when the discomfort stopped. It just never crossed my mind. I was so busy with other thing that I am not sure I even registered the change.

But now I am wondering if there was any type of relation between the two. Has anyone else experienced this?

I do think there is a big correlation between Celiac disease and all forms of infertility and/or reproductive organ issues. (which would include advanced endometriosis).

I think it just wreaks such havoc with everything that all systems start to fail. Everyone is individual of course, so each person may have different domino effects and different system failures.

I also was dx'd with endo over 20 years ago but was never able to afford the procedures. Since going gluten-free I don't have the pain like I used to. Still there but NOWHERE near as bad. Hopefully in a year or 2 it will be totally gone. Crossing my fingers.

I thought my dd had it 2 yrs ago. The doc said to go off gulten. He gave her complex B vitamins. Pain cleared up soon after. She had heavy blood loss and tremendous cramping. Now things are fairly normal except she doesn't eat many, if any, vegetables nor take vitamins :(

At age 21 she wont listen until she has a problem. She keeps catching a cold so I gave her vitamins and told her to eat right...we will see :blink:

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By ButWhatCanIEat · Posted

      Good morning,   I got an email about replies to this post. Some of my doctors had blamed a slipped disc for the pain I had and that contributes, but after meeting with a gastroenterologist AGAIN and trying some lifestyle modifications, I found out I have IBS and can't tolerate corn or excessive fructose to any degree. Cutting out corn AFTER having cut out all gluten containing products was a real pain but I feel much better now!

      Isolated DPG-Iga

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.

      Lymph nodes

      By Soleihey · Posted

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.

      Hmm interesting I just assumed that any “IGA” tests including the DPG iga would be negative in a person who is IGA deficient but maybe that is not the case for the DPG test.
