This week a biopsy came back as stage 1 - B cell lymphoma. Further testing results are due this week to let me know if it is indolent (slow) or aggressive. That will determine course of treatment. I've read that lymphoma is not uncommon in celiac patients. I appreciate any info you'd like to share with your experiences with lymphoma. I was diagnosed with celiac disease December 08.

Have a great day.....fran

I want to thank everyone for your responses. I appreciate your time and kind sentiments. I will go to those websites recommended and see what else I can find out. I want to be as completely informed about lymphoma as a non-medical personell can be. This is a wonderful website with caring informative people. Thanks again for your support. I'll let you know what the next stage is going to be for me.

Thanks again for all of your replies. I will let you all know what I hear from the genetic testing. I feel like I'm in limbo. When I was diagnosed with celiac I went home and got on the computer, bought books and found out a ton of info real quick. This waiting for the other shoe to fall makes me a little crazy. I can't seem to sleep more than 4 hrs. a night. I know I can handle anything once I know exactly what I'm dealing with (celiac will do that for you). Coping with celiacs taught me to speak up for myself and make major lifestyle changes. Since I focus on food a lot the first thought I had was "what can I eat or shouldn't eat" to get through this....nutty huh?

      Oh my goodness medication causing pain !!!!

      I think I found a huge culprit for severe reactions to create worsening of my c symptoms. Do people with celiac have sensitivity and /or have opposite reaction to certain medications Where can I find a list ? I'm new here I'm.wondering why I am getting worse when I take certain medicine...the burning feet. Rebound muscle pain so intense ...

      Stomach burning and neuropathy

      Yeah, that sounds super familiar. When inflammation levels are high — especially at the start of changing your diet — the body often develops a fructose and lactose intolerance. Unfortunately, the only thing that really helps is cutting out anything that isn’t lactose-free or that contains sugar. So basically, stick to meat, veggies, fish…

      Nausea

      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...

      Stomach burning and neuropathy

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Does anyone know if that includes scrambled eggs and healthy smart butter (,gluten free) I add a very tiny amount of margarine less than a teaspoon.  I did no't have any bread    It just seems like no matter what I eat my stomach and nerves over fire and here comes a host of horrible symptoms. My lower abdomen feels horrible, my right leg thigh muscle.. very odd. Jaw pain. Burning feet , joint pain , you name it  The anxiety just creeps up into brain fog. I don't think I could explain this to anyone who is unfamiliar.  Also,  I most likely will not remember posting this until I check it.  This is highly unusual for me because I have an excellent memory.  One weekend before I knew anything about celiac I lost an entire weekend from severe brain fog, confusion, pain, etc.  I honestly thought I was losing my mind. When I think back I recall eating a lot of PBJ sandwiches and turkey sandwiches.  Once again did not know about gluten.  I was just too sick to cook. Do people fast during attacks ?? It seems horrible to keep going through this. I hope I'm not causing my own problems... I wonder if I should fast because I'm not eating gluten .  Chicken ,  scrambled eggs no milk , canned carrots,  gluten free low sugar low fat Greek yogurt which I already posted about 😞 Any suggestions I am open... I am bedridden when this happens to me.  Thank you Celiac community. 🙏🏻❤️

      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
