Joint Pain And Total Knee Surgery Part Of Celiac Disease?


sherrylynn

Recommended Posts

sherrylynn Contributor

I have not been diagnosed yet but wondered. I have had joint pain for a long time. and 2 years ago have had to have total knee replacement surgery for both knees. I am 45 now and when I was 38 was told from a doctor that I had the knees of a 70 y/o. Was going to have the surgery then but found out 4 days before surgery I was pregnant.

Has anyone else had Joint pain then had to have surgery on joints at a young age?

I also have had D since I was 12 and have just been Diagnosed with IBS and have had lactose intolerance since I was 12.

Still wondering if what I have is Celiac, or do I just have IBS and arthitis and it is all a coincidence.

Thank you

Sherry Lynn

In my case the arthritis and IBS along with a lot of other stuff was connected. My arthritis has been in total remission now since a few months after diagnosis. After you are done with testing do give the diet a good strict try for a few months even if the results are negative. My IBS symptoms resolved fairly quickly but the arthritis took a bit longer to resolve.

Agreed with Ravenwood :) Get tested first, and then immediately go gluten-free anyway for a few weeks to see if it clears up symptoms even if tests come back negative.

I get very sore knees (they feel "unoiled"/creaky) when I get accidently glutened. I've also noticed my back pain coming back the last week or so when I was glutened, so wondering if that's related as well...

Thank you both for answering my question. I am very anxous about seeing the doctor, I hope he can help me. I am soooo tired of having a sore and painful tummy.

I am also having alot of pain in my arms and legs. stabbing type pain and an achy pain that I have had for years and years. I will let you know what he says.

      I have trouble with nausea. It often starts when I’m anxious about something (home repairs, sick dog) but continues long after the home is repaired or the dog is healthy again. When it happens I eat less and lose weight.  My gastroenterologist suggested ginger or peppermint tea. I don’t know if that will work or not because I haven't had the problem since she suggested it.

      Hello  I'm not sure what to think . Seems no matter what I do I get sick. I had some yogurt with only 2 grams of sugar and is labeled gluten free ...the strawberry version seemed to really set me off My jaw is burning as well as my stomach and my feet.  Horrible pain..plus acid reflux and nausea... sensitivity to touch pain. ..yikes !! I don't know if it's from the lactose in the yogurt or if I'm getting an ulcer  This condition can make you question yourself quite a bit.  Then if you are not sure the anxiety comes 😞 Does any of these symptoms sound familiar to anyone? The neuropathy is quite intense.  What do you eat or drink after this happens  Open to suggestions  Thank you

      Of course my son is on a 100% gluten free diet.  I wish his symptoms were not debilitating as there are right now.  He cannot work, even when a miniscule of cross contamination occurs.  It's not just GI distress, but intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc.  It's literally neurological inflammation.  Not to be taken lightly here.  We have sought out many other possible ways to cope during this window of time (8 months!!!!)  without success.   AN-PEP does not help and seems like studies on this are not well researched.  So, we are trying this out because research shows some promising results.  And, all participants showed no cravings afterwards, no signs of addiction.  The patch is different than the oral route such as smoking, vaping, gum, pouch, etc.

      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-Free.

      Hi all  I was diagnosed Coeliac a few years ago and follow a gluten free diet. The list of foods that I can eat without a problem grows shorter on a weekly basis. [I also have diabetes and asthma also].  BUT the reason I am posting this is because I seem to struggle with nausea quite a lot, which is really quite debilitating, and I was wondering if others suffer from nausea, even if following a gluten free diet.
