  1. I have not been as careful as I should about gluten. I tend not to have many visible symptoms--sometimes some diarrhea, but that's about it. So, I suspect it is gluten exposure. Most of the descriptions of mouth problems related to gluten include blisters or ulcers in the mouth. Your message confirms that it might be this more generalized soreness. I must...
  2. I just posted a question about mouth issues and now see this. For over 2 months my mouth has felt like it is burned inside. My gums are sensitive, and my lips are swollen and sore. I am now being super careful about gluten contamination and bought new pots, bowls, and utensils. Hope it works. I am really really tired of this.
  3. I was diagnosed with celiac (colonoscopy) 6 years ago (I am now 62) after months of chronic diarrhea. Two of my children also have celiac disease. I have been careful about the diet most of the time, but in the last year less so. Over two months ago I started having a very sore mouth. It feels like it is burning inside. I have been to a couple of doctors...
  4. For years (many years before being diagnosed with celiac), every few months when I am eating I have had a feeling of food being stuck in my chest and then I vomit to be able to continue eating. This happens when I eat raw carrots (every time) and sometimes when I eat other foods. I finally spoke to my doctor about it, and she said since it has been happening...
  5. Thank you for the encouragement. I found gluten-free beer here in Israel where I now live. I'm sure it is available in the States too. It's not quite a Heineken, but it's a fair substitute!
  6. Thank you! I will speak to my daughter again about this.
  7. When my daughter was 23, she was diagnosed with celiac (after getting severely anemic and losing a lot of weight) with a biopsy. Her blood test was negative. My son has not had testing, but he clearly has celiac and follows the diet (his symptoms tend to be skin related). Another daughter tested positive with the blood test, but she chooses not to follow...
  8. I was diagnosed with celiac after a biopsy in December. I've been gluten free except for a couple of notable exceptions (spelt bread once or twice). I just had another blood test and my ALT and AST are both elevated (127 and 110). I read somewhere that these can be elevated in celiac disease, but they have not previously been this elevated (just a little...
  9. I was diagnosed with celiac disease when I had a biopsy in November. Two (and probably three) of my children have celiac disease and when I started having intestinal issues for the first time in my life, I decided to get checked out. When I went gluten-free, most of the diarrhea stopped. A couple of days ago, I believe I made a mistake in eating some candy...
  10. I have two children (and probably three since the third tested positive on the blood test) with celiac. I started having stomach issues (chronic diarrhea) at the ripe old age of 58. None of the blood tests have confirmed celiac, and I am now going to have a colonoscopy this week. The gastro did not seem very convinced that my symptoms were caused by celiac...
