Research suggests a significant connection between celiac disease and dysautonomia, particularly conditions like POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome). Celiac-related autoimmune inflammation, nutrient deficiencies (e.g., B12, iron), and vagus nerve dysfunction may contribute to autonomic nervous system dysfunction. Some studies report improved...

EGD with flatten mucosa
Scott Adams replied to HeloIP's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests... -

Restaurants that offer gluten free no cross contamination
Scott Adams replied to Kenz's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
Yes, I doubt you can find a perfectly safe restaurant--perhaps a dedicated gluten-free restaurant, but in general, very few of them exist, and they tend to be in larger cities. Super sensitive celiacs should probably just avoid eating out. -
Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The...

You may want to go to a dermatologist to see if it might instead be dermatitis herpetiformis, which is the skin version of celiac disease. Here are some articles on Rosacea and CD:

Gluten free wheat flour????
Scott Adams replied to CJF's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
This is likely made with Codex quality wheat starch which has been used in Europe in gluten-free products for decades, but is relatively new in the USA (after recent changes to labeling laws here). If labeled gluten-free it must be under 20 ppm, and is safe for most celiacs, but some report reactions to it. We have a category of articles dedicated to... -
Prepping for Testing advice?
Scott Adams replied to xxnonamexx's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day: -
Iron supplements - Bowel upsets
Scott Adams replied to sh00148's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
It’s completely understandable to be concerned about your daughter’s reaction to iron supplements—bowel changes like frequent, dark stools are a common side effect of iron therapy. The black color is usually harmless and caused by unabsorbed iron interacting with gut bacteria, but the increased frequency can be uncomfortable. Many people do adjust over time ... -

High school and starting a 504plan in FLORIDA
Scott Adams replied to Ballerinagirl4's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
This is an older article, but may still be helpful: -
There is no direct evidence that AlgaeCal causes elevated coronary artery calcium (CAC) scores or significantly raises cholesterol levels. However, excessive calcium supplementation—especially without adequate vitamin K2 (which helps direct calcium to bones rather than arteries)—could theoretically contribute to vascular calcification over time, particularly in ...

High school and starting a 504plan in FLORIDA
Scott Adams replied to Ballerinagirl4's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Navigating a new diagnosis and setting up a 504 plan in Florida can feel overwhelming, but you’re taking such an important step for your daughter! Common accommodations for students with conditions like celiac or gluten sensitivity include unrestricted bathroom access (with no arbitrary limits), permission to leave class or school abruptly if symptoms flare, ...
