Symptoms

Hello,

I am new here and looking for support! I have celiac disease and I hate it!!

These are my symptoms. Just wondering if anyone else suffers from any of these if they accidently infect them self?

exterme weasing and coughing (flem)

runny nose, digestive problems.

The one that bugs me the most is the weasing makes it hard to sleep like right now have to get up in 3 hours for work but cant breath. I accidently infected my self. I bought a roasted chicken not looking at the contents. DO THEY HAVE TO PUT WHEAT FLOUR IN EVERYTHING !!!

Hi Dan!

Welcome to the board!

Yep, they put gluten in the darndest places, eh? It could be incredibly frustrating, that's for sure......

Your symptoms sound like gluten reactions. Many people react differently, some people don't react at all. For some people, they are asymptomatic. Personally, I think there are pro's and con's to both worlds. I sometimes wonder if I didn't get a reaction every time I was glutened, would I be as careful as I am now? Human nature being what it is, I probably wouldn't be as vigilant if I didn't have to worry about the short term consequences of gluten. But then, those who don't get reactions, who decide they don't have to be as careful, (not accepting the seriousness of this disease) have to worry about the long term consequences......

I remember I used to get a runny nose every so often. I am not one for allergies, but sometimes, for no reason, all of a sudden my nose would run clear liquid just like a faucet, not dripping, and actually running water out of my nose..... Weird, eh? That was pre-gluten-free diet, I don't have it happen anymore.....

There are a bunch of really great and supportive people on this forum who will also welcome you. Any questions you have, just post away!

Karen

      Chronic fatigue in the producer was the inspiration for the episode but I feel it touches on anyone that suffers and is dismissed as psycosomatic. The patient expressed my feelings elequently.  In episode 2 the doctor explains the problem well. I stopped all commercial milk protein like skim milk added to processed foods and in a few days there was a definate improvement in my  gut, bowel movements, discomfort etc. Still drinking several glasses of Pasture Fed grass fed milk with no negative effects.   Specifically, for myself Clonidine is the only medication that lowers my BP and the doctor did not renew it, insisting that I continue Losartan.  I think that she thinks I am abusing Clonidine and the reason the Losartan doesn't work is because I am non-compliant.  Absolutely not. Surprisingly after a few days withdrawal from the Clonidine my fasting blood sugar has gotten under control.  Fasting blood sugar near normal instead of over 160.  Last few days its been below 100.  I still need Glimiperide.  Without the clonidine my pulse rate is around 100 bpm, with it around 60.   Prescription of angiotensin receptor blockers in celiac disease is associated with persistent symptoms and surrogate markers of malabsorption.  https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12323722/ Angiotensin receptor blocker-associated enteropathy (ARB-e) is an increasingly recognised clinical entity with symptoms and histological findings identical to coeliac disease (celiac disease). There is evidence to suggest immune-mediated mucosal injury in ARB-e with a high prevalence of DQ2/DQ8; however, as IgA anti-tissue transglutaminase (anti-TTG) is usually negative   https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/ueg2.12117 NEW research [Nov 2024] presented at the American College of Gastroenterology (ACG) Annual Scientific Meeting suggests that angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), a class of drugs commonly used to manage hypertension, may be associated with poorer outcomes in patients with coeliac disease. Findings indicated that patients taking ARBs had a higher likelihood of experiencing persistent symptoms and markers of poor small bowel healing, such as anaemia and iron deficiency.  https://www.emjreviews.com/en-us/amj/gastroenterology/news/angiotensin-receptor-blockers-may-worsen-coeliac-disease-outcomes/

      @BarcinoHi! I am so sorry abt your son but also relieved to know I am not alone! My ttg iga is still mildly elevated but going down. Last time we checked I had some small erosions in my ileum but recently got an MRE that showed no inflammation. Calpro 70. We are still in limbo but we are taking a conservative approach as well. Please keep me updated about his situation and outcomes! I always love to hear others opinions/experiences especially ibd specialists.

      Celiac.com has published a book on our site by Jean Duane PhD called Gluten-Centric Culture, which covers many of the social aspects of having celiac disease: This chapter in particular covers issues around eating with family and others - Gluten-Centric Culture: Chapter 5 - Grabbing A Bite Together:

      Oh, thank you all so so much! I have found my people.   ❤️ I am so sorry that we have all suffered with this torturous itching and resulting sore skin. Sue, I can relate to what you wrote about the dark thoughts, I have had them, too. It's very tough and painful.  I have now had a 2 day straight run of only minor itching. I woke up this morning and did not want to get out of bed because it is the first time in months that I have felt comfortable and actually been able to appreciate the lovely feeling of the duvet on my skin, rather than just waking in pain and thinking about where I need to put cream on before I dress for work. If I can continue like this, then I think I could manage without medication but every time I say this, I then have a flare up. I plan to be very careful about what I eat over the weekend and it won't be easy as we are out with friends for dinner on Saturday (the pub do have very good gluten-free options, I checked of course!).  I really, REALLY appreciate your words so much and am so glad to have found this forum. I am going to read the articles kindly posted now, thank you Scott.

      I don’t know how common this is with celiac disease specifically, but significant inflammation, weight changes, aging, genetics, and skin elasticity can all play a role. It may be worth talking with both your doctor and a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon to see what options are realistic, from skin-tightening treatments to surgical approaches, while also making sure there isn’t ongoing inflammation, thyroid imbalance, or nutritional deficiency contributing. You deserve support for both the physical and emotional side of this.
