Around 1 percent of the American population is affected by celiac disease. For the ... Most are slow or don't target all of the gluten molecules. ... “The obvious [benefit is that] you don't have to worry about following a gluten-free diet.

Good in theory but I have a feeling they will flop like all of the other enzyme therapies.....like trying to prevent the sticky floor and mess of pouring a glass of juice on the floor by putting down a pile of paper towels...you going to get most of it but some is going to get through some is going to splatter and cause collateral issues......you can not just intercept and try to prevent a reaction to a bloody molecule smaller then a germ, a dang protein, buy trying to eliminate it after it has entered the body......like drinking bleach/antifreeze and trying to puke it all back up....it is in your body your going to get some ill effect maybe not as bad or quick.  

Key is eliminating the gluten before it enters the body, or turning off the bodies response to the protein. THOSE would be what we need, I see more potential in a kind of "gluten vaccine" that might turn off our immune response to gluten. Even is just a temporary measure like say a crispr RNA treatment or a targeted immune suppressant.

I think these doctors might have to experience how even the tiniest CC effects many of us and how before they try coming up with a half baked treatment of dealing with it in the body.

      @Heatherisle, You have good reason to worry.   Ask the doctors to do an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity Assay to test for Thiamine B1 deficiency.  Thiamine deficiency is frequently found in B12 deficiency.  Deficiencies in all the B vitamins are common with malabsorption due to Celiac disease.  Thiamine can run out in as little as three days.   Thiamine deficiency symptoms can be mistaken for other diseases such as MS and Guillian-Barre Syndrome.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms include pain in legs and abdominal pain as well as depression and gastrointestinal symptoms. Thiamine B1, Pyridoxine B6 and Cobalamine B 12 together relieve nerve pain.

      Hi  There’s been no mention of her adrenal glands as far as I know
    • Theresa2407
      Have they checked her Adrenal glands.    
    • Heatherisle
      Just an update on my daughter. She is still in hospital and getting quite depressed about everything. She had a CT scan of head and chest to rule out stroke in view of her symptoms. Thankfully there is no evidence of that so they now want to do an MRI to rule out MS so this is freaking her out and it’s not doing me much good either!!!They’re also going to do further blood tests to check vitamin levels. My husband and I are trying to reassure her the best we can that hopefully it’s just her body’s reaction to having the Vitamin B medication and it’s affecting her nervous system etc. Think the tingling has subsided but still having some lower back and pelvic pain and some leg pain. Thanks for reading and my apologies if I sound paranoid.
