    Diabetes: Gastroparesis, Diabetes and Celiac Disease

    Reviewed and edited by a celiac disease expert.

    The following was written by Joseph A. Murray, MD. (Open Original Shared Link) of the Mayo Clinic Rochester, MN, who is a gastroenterologist who specializes in treating Celiac disease:

    Subject: diabetes and celiac disease, gastroparesis

    There is a definite incidence of celiac disease in type one diabetes in Caucasians at least. Anywhere from of 3.3% to 10 % of people with type one diabetes will have or develop celiac disease. Any form of diabetes can lead to gastroparesis, usually after many years of diabetes. The symptoms can be similar in many ways, bloating after meals, abdominal pain. Diarrhea is not usually caused by the gastroparesis itself (diabetic diarrhea may occur as part of the nerve damage caused by the long-standing diabetes). I have several patients who have diabetes, gastroparesis and celiac disease. Certainly identifying the celiac disease often makes a big difference to the symptoms.

    Scott Adams

    Scott Adams was diagnosed with celiac disease in 1994, and, due to the nearly total lack of information available at that time, was forced to become an expert on the disease in order to recover. In 1995 he launched the site that later became Celiac.com to help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives.  He is co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of the (formerly paper) newsletter Journal of Gluten Sensitivity. In 1998 he founded The Gluten-Free Mall which he sold in 2014. Celiac.com does not sell any products, and is 100% advertiser supported.

    This article was posted to the Celiac Listserv by Ashton Embry at: Open Original Shared Link in January, 1998:
    I became interested in the concept of a Paleolithic Diet in a circuitous way which began with the diagnosis of my oldest son with multiple sclerosis two and a half years ago. I hit the med library soon after I was told that there was no known cause and no effective treatment for MS. My goal was to determine the most likely cause and to then devise a therapy which countered this cause. After reading hundreds of papers and countless more abstracts I reached the conclusion that the main cause of MS is dietary and that dairy, gluten and saturated fat were the three main offending foods. I have summarized this analysis in an essay which is at

    Celiac.com 11/12/2001 - According to a recent report published in the October issue of the Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition nearly 5% of US children with juvenile diabetes also have celiac disease. Dr. Steven L. Werlin of the Medical College of Wisconsin in Milwaukee and colleagues tested 218 patients with juvenile diabetes and 117 matched control subjects for the IgA endomysial antibody. Patients with positive results were offered a small bowel biopsy. The patients symptoms were assessed via a parent questionnaire.
    Results: Seventeen diabetic patients tested positive for the IgA endomysial antibody, while no positive results were found among control subjects. Fourteen of the 17 patients who tested positive...

      Hashimoto's is a type four hypersensitivity. Read what this doctor did about hers... https://thyroidpharmacist.com/articles/food-sensitivities-and-hashimotos/ She adopted a Paleo diet. Once you get your inflammation down, and your nutrients up, your body's immune system can calm down and quit reacting to every little thing.

      10 years later, my celiac is progressing

      Most doctors would dismiss the experiences I have described here, including my food diary, as somatic reactions, and begin to think of me as a hypochondriac--so I am very careful about what I share with doctors. Most of the research done so far in the medical field has focused on Type I hypersensitivity: classic IgE-mediated allergic responses. I wasn...

      Eye irritation 2.5 months into gluten free diet

      Title says it all. I’m at 4 months since Dx/starting gluten-free diet but the last month and a half I’ve had pretty irritated eyes. Originally they started really dry and sensitive to light, especially in the morning. Saw the eye doc and he said eye strain/dry eyes due to season change/radiators turning on in my apartment. I’ve been using a heat mask ...

      Refractory Celiac - doctor?

      Hello! I have been on a strict gluten-free diet for 20 years after my initial diagnosis, but in July had an endoscopy that showed villous atrophy (but multiple ttgs have all been normal). I have gone through everything in my house to eliminate any gluten and have been eating almost no processed foods, and will be getting a second endoscopy in a month because...
