I've noticed that one of the first things that happens to me when i come into contact with something is the inside of my mouth (mainly inner cheeks) get kind of a raw. i guess it would be almost like mild ulcers. is this common? usually when this happens, i know the next few days are not going to be fun!

I haven't had that exact reaction, but my lips and inside of my mouth burn, so that's kind of the same!

Yes canker sores are a symptom of gluten intolerance/celiac. I actually have one canker sore that comes back in the same place when I accidentally eat gluten.....

I used to get canker sores, sore mouth and had white plaque on my tongue. The canker sores were usually in one place and very painful. I would also get white sores in my nostrils, usually after dental appointments. I have read that the white plaques are common in Celiacs and with me they disappeared after I did herbal parasite programs. The canker sores persisted until I went gluten-free and now occur rarely.

An allergy to hot peppers leaves me with burning lips, sore mouth and swolen throat. I even react to peppers which are very mild but not bell peppers.

I also find that when I get weak muscles from a food or chemical reaction I tend to bite the insides of my cheeks.

I suffered from canker sores all my life. never knew it was from gluten. I started using rembrandt's tooth paste for canker sore sufferers and they completely went away until recently when I was diagnosed. they are not a problem for me now.

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
