Hi my husband has been having really bad stomach issue recently and the doctors just recently diagnosed him after six months with gastroparesis but i have been looking at celiacs and i feel like all his symptoms fit could it be that the doctors got it wrong? I am so confused and just dont know what to think. What are some symptoms that are major for this disease. Thanks!

There is a FAQ section at the top of each forum. Here is a direct link to it:

https://www.celiac.com/gluten-free/forum-13/announcement-3-frequently-asked-questions-about-celiac-disease/

You can find a list of common symptoms along with a lot of other info.

Quite honestly, the longer I've been at this (on this site) the question becomes "What ISN'T a symptom of Celiac Disease?"

If you suspect Celiac Disease, it certainly wouldn't hurt to get tested for it. Make sure your husband stays on a regular (gluten filled) diet until all testing is done.

From a personal experience, my daughter was diagnosed with both Celiac Disease and (mild) Gastroparesis. The GI thought the Gastroparesis was a result of damage done by the Celiac Disease and that once she was on the gluten free diet for a while and had a chance to heal that the gastroparesis would resolve itself. It did.

I have seen others on the board that do have both. Do a search on gastroparesis and you will find some threads on the topic.

Thanks so much!! That really does help a lot and makes me have a little hope that we can figure out to stop his stomach pains.

      I forgot to mention that exercise also triggers it, except for the period right before I tried the gluten challenge where I could do moderately intense workouts without getting this burning sensation and extreme fatigue for days afterwards.

      Hello everyone, I am 30 years old, female, and have Hashimoto's thyroiditis and suspected celiac disease (wasn't able to complete a gluten challenge, but have the symptoms and HLA-DQ8) or at least some kind of gluten sensitivity. When I first got diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis, I went on AIP and never reintroduced gluten. Whenever I would eat a little bit of gluten I would wake up feeling very old, achy, and unrested, with a burning sensation everywhere especially on my hip bones and chest area. It felt like severe inflammation. This would also happen during stressful times and times where I hadn't been sleeping well.  This symptom had decreased in intensity and...

      @MagsM Did your doctor do the DGP IgG and DGP IgA tests or the tTg IgG test.  It looks like he just tested total IgG.   Were you taking any medications or over the counter stuff before the test?  Some can suppress the immune system and cause false negatives.
