Biopsies from small intestine.(6pieces)

Section show ileal mucosa without villous arophy. The lamina propria does not how significant number of inflammatory cell, no pathogens are identified. Lymphoid follicles with reactive germinal centres are present.

Gastric biopsies (2 pieces)

Multiples pieces of non-specialised gastric mucosa showing mild chronic inflammation in the lamina propria. There is elongation of the superficial glands which show serrations of the luminal surface. No hrlivobactor pyloris is idenified. No intestinal metaplasia or malignancy is seen.

Biopsies from terminal illeum (3 pieces)

Section show ileal mucosa without villous atrophy. The lamina propria does not show significant number of inflammatory cells, no pathogens are identified. Lymphoid follicles with reactive germinal centres are present.

Colonic biopsies (together with terminal illeum)

Section show multiple pieces of colonic mucosa. There is no glandular atrophy, distortion or goblet cell depletion and lamina propria is oedematous without significant chronic inflammation. There is no evidence of malignancy.

Diagnosis:

Small bowel: without significant abnormality

Gastric biopsies: chemical gastritis, suggestive of drug(NSAIDS) effect or bile reflux.

Terminal ileum: without significant abnormality

Colonic biopsy: without significant abnormality

Hi guys, above is the result of my biopsy. I have unexplained weight loss of about 16kg for 1 year and have many symtoms, such as fatigue,stomach issue etc..Could the mild chronic inflammation in the lamina propria for my gastric biopsy cause by gluten? Anyone have similar report as mine? Anyone could help and have advice? thanks

It looks like there is some irritation going on? Do you take aspirin, motrin, those type of things? It's also possible that they caught your gluten intolerance early, before a lot of damage has been done?

Did you get Celiac blood tests? It's possible you have non Celiac gluten intolerance, if the test was negative, or you may be one of 20-30% that tests negative?

Since your tests are done, there's no harm in trying a strict gluten-free diet. Sometimes it's the best way to see if gluten is the problem!

Don't do it halfway..like gluten lite. Remove all gluten from your diet (and milk too) and see how you feel?

Hi bubba mom,

thanks for the reply, yah i have tried gluten free for 2 months, seem to feel abit better slightly but symtoms dont seem to improve much and also still losing weight, no i did not take any medicine, only before hand i am seeing chinese medicine but they seem to cure only help abit on my issue. I took their herbs it does help abit but often after few weeks they will give me alot of gas. i think it is also because i am lacking in vitamins. I seem to have alot of gas daily. i also try fructose free and it seem to help abit, but sometimes i duno what i have eaten and the gas keep coming back, i have no enegry everyday and now i weight only 97 pounds and i am 5feet 8 inch tall. Yes i got the celiac test and it came back negative. im quite worry i will keep wasting away. is gastric inflammation a sign of gluten intolerance? Do you have friends having similar case as me? thanks

Prob gluten intollerant. I had blood work, and EGD done. Blood work neg, EGD showed reflux and gastritis like you. Conclusion I'm gluten intolerant. You need to makes sure your not accidentally getting glutened when on gluten free. Give it another try and pay close attention to everything. Keep a food journal, along with how your feeling. That's what I did and realized what was making me sick. Hang in there.

It could be caused by gluten or by other food intolerances. Common food intolerances other people on the board have are dairy, corn, and soy.

thanks guys for your replys.

hi raea2002,

For your biopsy of your stomach, they also show mild chronic inflammation in the lamina propria? Your gastric biopsy report is chemical gastritis, suggestive of drug(NSAIDS) effect or bile reflux?

Did you lost alot of weight as well?? Yes im have been trying hard to stay gluten free and im just glutened by raw walnut few day ago. It is very hard to stay gluten free. Did you buy any of the gluten free product, whenever i eat them seem to have quite some problem. Do you happen to know if clearspring rice cake is safe?

How do you find out that you are gluten intolerant? did you take the enterolab test? thanks

      Major Glutening

      Hi to all I am 4 years Celiac now. I have Ataxia too from gluten and it’s been a major learning curve and adjustment. But my query is about a recent set back. I was Glutened and started an OTC medicine to cope with a symptom. It stated it was free from gluten specifically. But in the following weeks I was getting more ill and couldn’t fathom what was wro...

      Gluten Allergy

      @MMeade, People who get over-methylated are frequently low in Pyridoxine Vitamin B6. Pyridoxine helps regulate the methylation process so it doesn't run amok. P-5-P is the active form. All eight essential B vitamins work in concert together. Just taking one or two can throw the rest out of balance. If you have malabsorption as occurs in Celiac...

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      @Rejoicephd, I took high dose Vitamin D to correct my severe deficiency quickly. It's safe to do this. I felt much better once my Vitamin D level was about eighty ng/mL. Vitamin D works as a hormone and helps calms the immune system between 80 - 100 ng/mL. High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation Can Correct Hypovitaminosis D Prior to Total Knee...

      Thanks @knitty kitty for keeping me thinking about the importance of vitamins. And I appreciate you sending those papers (gives me something for my science brain to work through! I’m a PhD in biology so I like reading these sorts of things). It’s been surprising to see how little is understood about the cause of fibromyalgia. My Vit D went low again on my ...

      Major Glutening

      By FayeBr · Posted

      Hi to all I am 4 years Celiac now. I have Ataxia too from gluten and it’s been a major learning curve and adjustment. But my query is about a recent set back. I was Glutened and started an OTC medicine to cope with a symptom. It stated it was free from gluten specifically. But in the following weeks I was getting more ill and couldn’t fathom what was wrong. I had gastritis which is awful and lots of other neuro and body symptoms that I get when Glutened. I always find it difficult to think straight too because of the brain fog and fatigue so this wasn’t helping me think logically. And then the lightbulb moment of the medication. I emailed the company in my gluten haze (by this time the symptoms were awful and reminded me of my pre gluten free days) and they responded saying although it states ‘this product does not contain gluten’ they could not guarantee it didn’t have gluten in it from manufacturing processes etc etc. I stopped it just over 2 weeks ago. I had been taking it for 6 weeks. So in the last few weeks I have started to improve from being bedridden with fatigue and aches/pains,  gastritis, abdominal pain and GI problems, brain fog, mental health symptoms, pins and needles, migraines and much more to just about functioning. I feel I have done so much damage to my body and it’s such a set back. But my question is has anyone else had a major episode like this and how long did it take to recover? I still have symptoms now and it’s been over 2 weeks. I’m afraid I have made my Ataxia worse and the panic attacks and anxiety are through the roof. I’d forgotten what that was like. But any thoughts or experiences would help. Thank you.

      @MMeade, People who get over-methylated are frequently low in Pyridoxine Vitamin B6.  Pyridoxine helps regulate the methylation process so it doesn't run amok.  P-5-P is the active form. All eight essential B vitamins work in concert together.  Just taking one or two can throw the rest out of balance.  If you have malabsorption as occurs in Celiac, then all the B vitamins will be poorly absorbed.  Taking a B Complex in addition to extra thiamine (Benfotiamine) is safe.  The B vitamins and Vitamin C are water soluble.  Any excess is urinated out.  I took a B 50 Complex twice a day to increase absorption.   Try taking Magnesium Threonate (Neuro-Mag by Life Extension).  Magnesium Threonate can get into the brain easily.  The brain needs magnesium, too, but other forms don't cross the blood-brain barrier as well.   The first time I took Magnesium Threonate, it felt like my brain relaxed.  I highly recommend it.   How's your Vitamin D level?

      Thanks @knitty kitty for keeping me thinking about the importance of vitamins. And I appreciate you sending those papers (gives me something for my science brain to work through! I’m a PhD in biology so I like reading these sorts of things). It’s been surprising to see how little is understood about the cause of fibromyalgia. My Vit D went low again on my last blood test so I know I’m back to being deficient there (it did go up for a while but back down again). Whomp whomp. So I’ll be both reading about and taking vitamins. Thanks again for your input. Really appreciate it.
