Has anyone had continued joint pain after going gluten free? (I was off of dairy for about a year. It made no difference So it's not casein..I know some people have reactions to casein like this) Does anyone have celiac induced arthritis? My doc office said that joint pain is def. a symptom but I have been gluten free for 18 months. Any thoughts?

Thanks!

I'll answer. I have bunions and though bunions are, I guess, ... bunions, it's hard for me to conceive of them independently of arthritis. I'm not a doctor, but there seems to be some similarity. Who knows.

Bunion pain was bad up until August or September - I went gluten-free, not CF though, in May of this year. Since then, knock on wood, it's subsided CONSIDERABLY. Now, if only THEY would!

I was first diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, and then psoriatic arthritis after the psoriasis appeared. The joint pain was severe and the psoriasis drove me crazy. After lots of other meds I was eventually prescribed Humira and everything went away, joints normal although fingers and toes and wrist still swollen. Since I ended up a couple of months short of Humira on my last prescription refill I thought it would be a good opportunity to see if the diet (3 years in) was working - nope! :( Symptoms came roaring back so I'm back on Humira. However, my GI symptoms are fine thank you very much, (well, still a bit gassy :blink: ) but I still struggle to maintain nutrient levels without massive supplements. I originally went gluten free in hopes of helping my arthritis, and the GI benefits were a tremendous bonus :D

Check out the relation between nightshade vegetables and arthritis.

My arthritis didn't start easing up until I kicked out the soy and nightshades. Especially the nightshades.

      Other symptoms that Celiac Disease can cause but resemble other diseases so the cause may be misdiagnosed. What Are the Symptoms of Celiac Disease?

      Thanks Scott. They are gluten-free but cross contaminated.

      Hernia symptoms after gluten exposure

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi there @MCAyr I have a small umbilical hernia which came about during my second pregnancy.   I can just about see it, and feel it, when I stand or sit, but it is far less noticeable when I lie down.  I always know when I am putting on weight because I can get pain and burning near the site, funnily enough not on the hernia itself but either side!  I would imagine bloating could cause the same effect as weight gain. In my case I don't think it is my bowel protruding but a bit of fat  - sorry,  I realise this isn't painting a very pretty picture.  But in truth it is scarcely noticeable.  It has never really got bigger in size. I was rather hoping that it could be operated on but here in the UK they don't seem to operate on every hernia anymore.  My GP isn't remotely worried about it. In a way, I should be thankful - it is like an early warning system that I need to go on a diet! Cristiana

      The hernia description would likely be unrelated to celiac disease, but you'd need to get it checked out by your doctor to be sure it's a hernia.
