I think its quite common. Mine have lessened since I have been gluten free for a month.

I take medicine called Skelaxin. I have also taken Parafon Forte in the past but it didn't work as well. Heat works wonders...I have both a heating pad and a massager seat cover that both massages and can be heated.

Stretching also seems to help a lot as long as I don't overdo.

I take a ratio of Omega 6's and 3's (as prescribed in "The Hidden Story of Cancer"), and my joint and bone pain completely went away. To achieve the correct ratio, simply take 1/2 teaspoon of organic flaxseed oil and 3/4 teaspoon of safflower oil in either a small glass of juice or a smoothie (mix it in after mixing the smoothie so that you don't gunk up your blender). Believe me--this really does work!

However, I must admit to taking Dr. Christopher's Joint Formula and also Dr. Christopher's Tissue and Bone Formula--both are very inexpensive and can be purchased on the Web (I'm talking approximately $8.00 each). They were recommended to me by someone else with celiac, and she was spot on--my joints feel great now, even though I have celiac and have suffered two rounds of Rheumatic Fever.

Lastly, if the above two remedies don't work, you can always take Curcumin, a natural product that relieves inflammatory pain in the joints. It's made of Turmeric, and studies have shown that it really is effective.

If you haven't had your vitamin D level and calcium level checked recently, it may be something to request at your next doctor's appointment.

I suffered from bone and joint pain terribly before I knew I had Celiac. Supplementing Calcium and D and being gluten free have eliminated it. Maybe the other vitamins help too. I take a lot of C.

      Have I got coeliac disease

      Vitamin D status in the UK is even worse than the US.  vitamin D is essential for fighting bone loss and dental health and resistance to infection.  Mental health and depression can also be affected by vitamin D deficiency.  Perhaps low D is the reason that some suffer from multiple autoimmune diseases.  In studies, low D is a factor in almost all of the autoimmune diseases that it has been studied in. Even while searching for your diagnosis, testing your 25(OH)D status and improving it my help your general wellness. Vitamin D Deficiency Affects 60% in Britain: How to Fix It?

      Hey there, have you been tested for allergies? You may not only have celiac disease but be allergic. I have celiac disease and am allergic to Barley, wheat and rye.

      I have osteopenia and have cracked three vertebrae.  Niacin is connected to osteoporosis! Do talk to your nutritionist and doctor about supplementing with B vitamins.  Blood tests don't reveal the amount of vitamins stored inside cells.  The blood is a transportation system and can reflect vitamins absorbed from food eaten in the previous twenty-four to forty-eight hours.  Those "normal limits" are based on minimum amounts required to prevent disease, not levels for optimal health.   Keep us posted on your progress.   B Vitamins: Functions and Uses in Medicine https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9662251/ Association of dietary niacin intake with osteoporosis in the postmenopausal women in the US: NHANES 2007–2018 https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11835798/ Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/   Nutritional Imbalances in Adult Celiac Patients Following a Gluten-Free Diet https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8398893/ Nutritional Consequences of Celiac Disease and Gluten-Free Diet https://www.mdpi.com/2036-7422/15/4/61 Simplifying the B Complex: How Vitamins B6 and B9 Modulate One Carbon Metabolism in Cancer and Beyond https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9609401/
