Healing Process

I started a gluten free diet 9 months ago. Many of my symptoms (joint and muscle pain, headaches) stopped. 2 months ago I was diagnosed with celiac disease, so I cut all all small traces of gluten I was missing before, like medications. I feel I am doing a good job at watching everything I eat so that I am not getting gluten accidentally.

So with that said, I have been healing for a good 2 months but I have been getting a lot of stomach aches and pains. Does anyone else get this? I am wondering if it isn't due to the healing that is happening. Some symptoms I never got rid of are the fatigue and ataxia. Those haven't changed since I went gluten free, but the stomach pain I never had before. The stomach pain is rather regular, pretty much every day. I did get glutened accidentally once and that was a far worse pain, this is just a constant dull ache type of pain.

I would like to know if anyone else seems to get this pain.

Thanks!

A few months after I went gluten free I started getting really dramatic stomach rumbling that was constant every day for a few weeks. I didn't have any other symptoms of glutening so I just stayed the course with the gluten free diet and I imagined it was my "Baby Villi" growing back. I don't know if it was or not...but eventually it went away as I healed.

the neuro issues take the longest to heal, that said, sometimes they don't completely go away. The best that can be done is to stop progression. However, be for you give up on that, i would try CoQ10 supplimentation. Good luck

Could it be lactose intolerance?

      Celiac Disease, Lymphocytic colitis and Bowel rupture

      Welcome to the celiac.com community @MoniqueCham! Celiac disease damages the villous lining of the small bowel but, as far as I know, doesn't affect the underlying smooth muscle tissue of the bowel.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I am monitored for this value of Vit D. I kept going down so the Vit D had to be increased.

      Celiac Disease, Lymphocytic colitis and Bowel rupture

      I was diagnosed with celiac disease 40 years ago and lymphocytic colitis 20 years ago along with refractory celiac disease affecting mid jejunum to mid ileum (diagnosed using a capsule endoscopy). My antibodies to tissue transglutaminase were normal on a strict gluten free diet. Both the lymphocytic colitis and the refractory celiac disease responded well...

My antibodies to tissue transglutaminase were normal on a strict gluten free diet. Both the lymphocytic colitis and the refractory celiac disease responded well to entocort. I have a number of autoimmune conditions including systemic granuloma annulaire (a skin condition) which was treated with methotrexate. I was on a low dose of methotrexate (15 mg once a week with folic acid every day when not taking methotrexate). In 5 months my sigmoid colon ruptured. Pathology reports show that I had significant necrosis of my sigmoid bowel due to no known cause and a large hole in the bowel. My surgeons felt that the methotrexate may have caused the damage and rupture to my bowel (1 in a million chance). My question is has anyone experienced similar issues with methotrexate given that the integrity of our intestines may be compromised in celiac disease?

      Hello, I'm I crazy, nieve, or atomistic? I reached out to my former pcp of 25 years on the medical app today.Reading on the National Library of Medicine 75.6  physicians don't know celiac disease.To be fair he is primary and with the lack of knowledge, I did reach out because he was my Dr for 25 years.I do prefer his app than the one I currently have that was ignite of the disability celiac circus name chaser thanks to the one that  I currently have Since May 31, 2025 to present.
