My husband said he thought that might be the case. Just don't know where it could be coming from. And unfortunately, yes, there are plenty of disorders that are associated with celiac. I was just hoping that being gluten free would keep them from occurring.

I have been gluten-free for 3 years. I also eat a whole foods diet that includes lots of probiotic foods, no grains, etc. I am healthier than I have ever been. The only problem is that in the past year I have had a couple months where I've had episodes of what seems like cyclical vomiting. I also have been suffering from proctalgia fugax (rectal spasms) about...

The problem with that, is that they have also been gluten free for two years as well. My daughter was the reason we went gluten-free in the first place. She was failure to thrive, had severe reflux, her toenails were growing funky, etc. and they tested her for cystic fibrosis and all sorts of things. The doctor finally did the blood test for celiac and...

Is there a doctor that will diagnose celiac based on genetic testing and health history? I am a DQ8 DQ8 and have had every celiac symptom in the book. I have been gluten-free for 2 years and absolutely refuse to start eating gluten again to get testing done. In fact, I'm not even sure after 2 years of healing, if the results would even be accurate from...

Hi. I have what I consider a geographic tongue, although I'd never heard of it before celiac. I've always had either what looks like cracks in my tongue, or prominant taste bud looking things, and/or a white, fuzzy coating. I had never seen my tongue look pink until I went gluten free. The thing is, I also went dairy free and ditched refined sugar. Now...

When I was in elementary school, I had a problem with my heel. From what I remember, the cartilage on the bottom was loose, and when I walked it would rub against the bone. I had to limit activity and try not to run on hard surfaces for a while. Does anyone know what this was and if it was related to celiac at all?

My daughter and I both have celiac. My husband does not. We all went to the mall Saturday night, and ended up eating at the food court- something I try to avoid. I usually look up menus when dining out, but we didn't have that option, and the food court employees aren't very knowledgeable about the food. Anyway, all three of us ate some Bourbon Chicken...

Since going gluten free, my poop actually got softer. Before gluten-free it was either diarrhea or constipation. Now it is always soft. I also went dairy free over a week ago. Since then I am pooping after every meal and in the morning. It is not diarrhea, but it is very soft poo. I thought frequent pooping was a sign of celiac. I should be pooping...

I'm an O- but I've never heard that theory before. Strangely enough, my daughter (don't know her type, but would be willing to bet it's O) is intolerant to both dairy and oranges.

I know this is an old thread, but I think it answers a question that I just posted earlier this morning. I have been having breast tenderness and fullness recently, and was wondering if it had to do with going off gluten or dairy. The strange thing is, it is mostly just one of my breasts. I actually wish they would have this problem evenly, because they...

I just found this old thread that may answer my question. Looks like going gluten free causes breast tenderness for some people... https://www.celiac.com/gluten-free/index.ph...aded&start=

So I've been mostly gluten free since November, and completely gluten free for the past couple months. Earlier this week I decided to cut out dairy as well, since my daughter is intolerant to dairy, and I really feel I have an addiction to it. Since going gluten free, I experienced much better periods- less pain and cramping, more regular cycle, etc. This...

I'd like to add that I can't find any one else who has the same number scale, so I don't know how to really compare these.

The other day I was at the allergy doctor with my son. He has spells of asthma, and we were getting RAST tests done. He didn't react to a thing except mold. Knowing that he has at least one DQ8 gene (since I am DQ8/DQ8), problems with constipation, discolorations on his teeth, and just started seeing a counselor for anxiety, I asked the Dr. if we could...

Thanks! That makes sense.
