I was diagnosed with celiacs 2.5 months ago and started gluten free. 
My initial GI symptoms got better but one month in lymph nodes began swelling everywhere.

Now 1.5 months later they are still swollen, groin, neck and left armpit. Some hurt and some don’t.

im trying not to stress. My dr did a CBC which was normal WBC w some high Shifted percentage of lymphocytes but decided to wait/watch for a few weeks.

I’ve never had swollen lymph nodes before that I can remember.

anyone else have them wheh initially going gluten free??

H Tammy! 

I did not have this issue, but members have reported or discussed it.  Just type in lymph nodes in the search box located at the top right of the page.  You will find pages of comments.  ?

I had a swollen lymph node and testicle soon after diagnoses. had the testicle checked obviously and they explained that calcium can kind of just go where it doesn't belong because the molecules are so small. magnesium is supposed to help correct that in theory.

I have calcium nodes in odd places too due to celiac disease.  My doctors were not concerned about them because they knew what they were.

      Gluten Ataxia and Malabsorption

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It took me 2-3 years to feel like my gut recovered, and then I still had gluten ataxia issues for well over a decade.  This study indicates that a majority of celiacs don't recover until 5 years after diagnosis and starting a gluten-free diet: Mucosal recovery and mortality in adults with celiac disease after treatment with a gluten-free diet However, it's also possible that what the study really shows is the difficulty in maintaining a 100% gluten-free diet. I suspect that if you looked closely at the diets of those who did not recover within 2 years might be that their diets were not 100% gluten-free. Perhaps they ate out more often, or didn't understand all of the hidden ingredients where gluten can hide. Either way, it shows how difficult recovery from celiac disease can be for most people. According to this study: This article explores other causes of flattened villi:

      Best apps for people with celiac

      By pmarklesparkle · Posted

      I was diagnosed with dermatitis herpetiformis and ultimately celiac disease in September 2024.  I am trying to navigate the world with celiac, unsuccessfully, still having dermatitis herpetiformis outbreaks.  Grocery shopping is difficult, shopping for toiletries is nearly impossible. Dining out is also a challenge. Can anyone recommend iPhone apps that will make these easier?  Thanks so much!

      Cycle of dermatitis herpetiformis

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @pmarklesparkle! Thanks for sharing your diagnostic journey as it may be helpful to others who are getting mixed results during the diagnostic phase. Kudos to the gastro NP who dug deeper and ordered the endoscopy/biopsy. You may also wish to investigate a low iodine diet to get a handle on your continued outbreaks of dermatitis herpetiformis.
