I go officially to the GI doc tomorrow. I am fairly certain that I have some type of gluten intolerance problem. It just emerged about 2 months ago actually. I read somewhere that the stress of your pregnancy can cause celiac and other autoimmune disorders to express themselves. Has anyone else had this experience?

I just hope the doctor will actually test me for it.

If you have been gluten free, the tests will not do any good.

That said, if you're also pregnant and strongly suspect celiac, I couldn't advise eating gluten for testing, because of the potential risks.

I hope the doctor has some useful help for you, though.

do your parents or siblings have Celiac or any other Autoimmune Diseases???? to give us an idea?

i, personally, think that if u suspect u have issues with gluten- i would NOT eat ANY gluten for the rest of your pregnancy- and maybe even abstain while nursing. but make sure you eat really healthy NATURALLY gluten free foods, fresh fruits & veggies, lean meats, healthy oils and fats (no flax)... and dont eat gluten free substitutes all day.

i just dont think its worth the risk to continue eating it... u can always challenge and test after delivering later, if u need a diagnosis

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      By Russ H · Posted

      This treatment looks promising. Its aim is to provoke immune tolerance of gluten, possibly curing the disease. It passed the phase 2 trial with flying colours, and I came across a post on Reddit by one of the study volunteers. Apparently, the results were good enough that the company is applying for fast track approval.  Anokion Announces Positive Symptom Data from its Phase 2 Trial Evaluating KAN-101 for the Treatment of Celiac Disease https://www.reddit.com/r/Celiac/comments/1krx2wh/kan_101_trial_put_on_hold/

      Gluten related ??

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.
