I am still waiting for my blood test results but was wondering if  Glucosamine and vitamins and hemp protein  could effect the results.

Not to my knowledge but maybe someone else has some other thoughts.

Blood tests for celiac? I don't see how. Not eating gluten would effect them.

Could taking vitamins affect any nutrient testing if it was a full blood count? As in, cover up a deficiency? For what it's worth I wouldn't imagine that they would affect the actual coeliac tests.

You wouldn't have a deficiency if the vitamin pill  was being absorbed.  So, in  a way, it would cover up a deficiency.  That is how it would work for anyone - Celiac or not.  For example, If I take multi-vitamins and my iron, D, etc are good, I would probably keep taking the vitamin because things are good.  And I want them to stay good.  With Celiac, if you are taking the vitamins and you are still low - that is a good indicator to the doctor that something is going on. A smart doc would then want to test for things like Celiac, that could explain why you are still deficient despite eating vitamin pills, fortified cereal, etc.   I wouldn't stop taking the vitamins just to see how low you can go and how tired you can feel.

 

 No matter how badly damaged your intestines are, there are still little parts that can absorb the vitamins.  You would want to make sure you have the iron, D, etc available for that small part to "eat".

      Symptoms and trying to figure this out

      Very helpful. Oh yes, I am quite fastidious about not falling off the diet. It's just that the list of things I must add to the restrictions seems to grow.

      Chronic duodenitis and gastritis post diagnose

      I know this post is old but was wondering if you ever resolved this. My son is in the same situation. Villi healed but gastritis / duodenitis remain and calprotectin elevated. Now testing for crohns which I am freaking out about.

      I did a little research and one kind of aphthous ulcer (aka, canker sore) is the Herpetiform canker sore. It is well-known that celiac disease can cause a skin rash known as herpetiformis dermatitis. I can't help but wonder if there is a connection. Celiac disease is also listed in this article as a cause for canker sores: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases...

      Coping with celiac

      Do you wear an M-95 mask left over from the pandemic when you handle flour? Do you eat out in restaurants? Do you take vitamins?

Shortly after starting I started having stomach issues - vomiting, diarrhea, red itchy palms and elevated heart rate.  I would have The episodes were every two weeks or so.  I stopped taking the semaglutide, but continued to have episodes.  GP ran bloodwork all normal, including celiac.  Ordered a stomach emptying test it was normal too.  The itchy palms stumped him.  So he ordered blood allergy test all came back normal no allergies. He had me go gluten free 11/29.  Finally got into a GI doc on 12/16.  She wanted me to reintroduce gluten back in my diet on 12/23 and then have scope on 1/8.  Well, 5 days in with gluten, I had an episode. I’m not sure I can keep eating gluten for 10 more days.  I have PTSD thinking about possibly having an episode(s) again.  Anyone going through this? Or have thoughts/suggestions?

You might also look into reducing iodine consumption as that is known to help with herpetiformis dermatitis. Perhaps it will help with your canker sores as well.
