Our son was being treated for pericaditis and lupus when he was a teen.  Because he was on large doses of Plaquenil, NSAIDs, and Prednisone he was prescribed a PPI.  Instead of just a 14 day course as now recommended, he was on it for nearly 2 years.  He was misdiagnosed, so the only drug he actually needed was the steroid for the pericarditis. It was drug induced, not systemic lupus.  Once we knew that, we began the process of weaning him off the drugs under medical supervision.  He ended up with NAFLD, which the gastro pinned on the combo of all those drugs  for such a long time.  Even now almost 25 years later he has horrible gut problems.

Diagnosed 3 years ago by GI. At age 73. Never been sick in my life. You’re right it is totally overwhelming. Especially when you have a spouse that can’t understand it. I have DH reaction. But the gut pain is unreal. Dermatology tests showed allergy to wheat - negative! Sure! Allergists and dermatologists are not always the best source for diagnosing Celiac. Celiac many times comes with lactose intolerance. I tried lactose free milk. Took time for me to realize that I was still reacting to that. Oatly milk is the only one I can tolerate. Added vitamins. Huge improvement. I thought at my age it was time to enjoy eating out more. NOT! Not happy to be cooking at home but healthier. We travel a lot! Always have gluten free snack in my purse. Thought I could leave my kitchen as is. NOT! Convincing my husband was something else. It is overwhelming no doubt. But a good GI and accepting what you need to do to stay healthy will make a big difference. Hang in there. It will get better. 

I have Celiac, dermatitis herpetiformis yet I am not allergic, nor sensitive to wheat!  Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis is the autoimmune reaction, which is different from an allergic reaction.

      Blood Test for Celiac wheat type matters?

      I'm not saying that some celiacs won't need it, but it should be done under a doctor's supervision because it can cause lots of problems in some people.

      Hello, just popped in my head to ask this question about medications and celiac? I have always had refurse reaction to meds since I can remember  of what little meds my body is able to tolerate. I was taking gabapentin 300mg for a week,  in past I believe 150? Any ways it amps me up not able to sleep, though very tired.However I did notice it helped with my bloating sibo belly.I hate that my body is that sensitive and medical doesn't seem to take seriously. Im STILL healing with my skin, eye, and now ms or meningioma ( will know in April  which)and dealing with this limbo nightmare. I did write my name, address ect on the reclamation but im not tech savvy and not sure if went through properly. I called my city representative in Stanislaus County and asked if theres a physical paper i can sign for proclamation for celiac and she had no clue about what I was saying, so I just said I'll go back on website.

      trents:  Why some can tolerate european bread but not american bread.     I take 600 mcg a day.  Right in the middle of the safe range.   Groups at Risk of Iodine Inadequacy Though though the NIH does not specifically list Celiac Disease in this group, they state: "Iodide is quickly and almost completely absorbed in the stomach and duodenum. Iodate is reduced in the gastrointestinal tract and absorbed as iodide [2,5]."  That would certainly include malabsorption of Iodine due to Celiac Disease with resultant Iodine Deficiency. Vegans and people who eat few or no dairy products, seafood, and eggs People who do not use iodized salt Pregnant women People with marginal iodine status who eat foods containing goitrogens Deficiencies of iron and/or vitamin A may also be goitrogenic [51] https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/Iodine-HealthProfessiona   1
