COVID-19 a Possible Trigger for Celiac Disease in Those with Genetic Risk
sandbtmytoes commented on Scott Adams's article in Latest Research
Hello and welcome! It sounds to me like maybe you were inclined to be celiac, and like so many of us, you had a trigger which happened to be the vaccine. This seems plausible because your immune system doesn’t distinguish between a vaccine and the real virus. Stomach issues are also symptoms of Covid, and the only symptom for up to 50% of people, according t... -

Scott, Since the suspected autism link was from the MMR vaccine, and many autistic symptoms improve or disappear on the gluten free diet, might there be a link between the MMR vaccine turning on celiac genes and undiagnosed celiac causing the autism problems after vaccination, as Guest Germany thinks that vaccine turned on her son’s celiac? -

You mentioned slow fe and getting out of breath. Slow fe helped me a lot and if you are anemic, it can definitely affect the heart, usually in the severe stages. This is my story with slow fe and later celiac from another post: Almost four years before finding out I had celiac, I was diagnosed with iron deficiency anemia by the gynecologist. This should... -
Hi Oldturdle, When I had covid, I took as many 250 mg magnesium tablets as I needed. This was during week two of covid when my other symptoms had subsided, but I was still very weak. I would get a headache then get so nauseated all day long. It was miserable. After about 3 days of this and hardly able to sleep, I was at my wits end, and this is really...

Check for vitamin deficiencies, especially iron, magnesium, vitamin D and zinc. Almost four years before finding out I had celiac, I was diagnosed with iron deficiency anemia by the gynecologist. This should have been a clue, as anemia is a symptom of celiac, but since it was the gyno and they see anemia due to hanvey bleeding, it wasn’t investigated. T...
