Hello everyone,

Just wondering if anyone else has celiac and Hashimotos? I hear is common.  I have my celiac antibodies under control but my Hashimotos antibodies(tpos) have gone up from 95  to 175 so moving in the wrong direction. Has anyone been able to bring thryroid antibodies down? If yes, any tips?. I went dairy free 10 months ago when I was told  I had Hashimotos.  I am so thankful for this forums. It is the only place where I have learned information that actually made a difference in my celiac journey.  Thanks again

@Raquel2021,

Thiamine deficiency goes along with Hashimoto's.  

I stopped losing my hair  and felt much better after I supplemented with high dose Thiamine.

Here's some interesting articles...

Thank you . Very interesting.  I have tried taking a b complex and it would cause me severe insomnia so I am trying to get my vitamins from diet. How did you find out you had a B1 deficiency?

@Raquel2021,

My story and my research is in my blog, linked below.  

I was misdiagnosed.  For a very long time.  My doctors were clueless.  I depended on what I learned at university.  I don't want anyone else to go through what I went through, so now I'm here. 

 Knowledge is power. 

If you have any questions, I'm very happy to answer them.

I take my B vitamins earlier in the day.  The B12, Thiamine and Niacin can make one feel energized.  Magnesium is a cofactor with some B vitamins, so you might not be bothered by insomnia if you add a magnesium glycinate or magnesium citrate  supplement after a meal.  

Niacin can cause flushing, a vasodilation of small blood vessels, which is harmless and goes away as Niacin stores in the body are replenished.  

I like this B Complex...

Hope this helps!

Do you also have Hashimotos? Thanks

@Raquel2021,

Well, not anymore.  Thiamine is needed for the thyroid to function properly, too.

      Still testing positive after being gluten free for one year ?!!

      By Jenn D · Posted

      Hi. Did your ema levels ever go negative? My son is 2 years in gluten free and they are still positive.  I'm scared he has refractory celiac disease. Please if anyone has any info greatly appreciate it. His ttg is 3 which is considered normal.

      Not sure if this is Celiac or just a gluten-free intolerance

      I will have that info soon but it was a laundry list of a test and 9 viles. ok so there were some days she was gluten she barely ate because of the reactions. I told her 3 weeks of atleast 10g’s a day and no gluten-free days. Thanks so much for your help! I didn’t know my suggestion for gluten-free days would have hurt her.    I will come back with the list to make sure the req was proper!!

      A "gluten challenge" of two weeks would be the bare minimum for expecting to render valid testing, and that would have been paired with eating a minimum of 10 g of gluten each day (the equivalent of 4-6 slices of wheat bread). And with the three gluten free days in the midst of that two week gluten challenge I would not have confidence in the results of the testing. Was there a blood test done for IGA deficiency? Can you post the test names that were done with the scores and with the reference ranges used by the lab? By the way, with celiac disease the issue is not being able to digest gluten. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder defined by the fact that ingestion of gluten triggers an immune system response that attacks the membrane that lines the small bowel. The immune system mistakenly identifies the protein gluten as a biologic invader.

      Hey all!! M i want to thank everyone for their suggestions and advice - I am a single mother of 4 (now 3) and was helping with my oldest leaving the nest. I have another child with medical issues and with work (it’s our end year), life has been crazy and I haven’t had the time to answer.    so we got a blood test done for my daughter that can’t digest gluten. She had been eating gluten for 2 weeks. The blood work came back normal? How is that possible. I see her with my own eyes and it’s not normal. Is that not long enough?  I am thinking about having her eat gluten another week then go to the hospital and see what they say.    She did have 3 gluten-free days in those 2 weeks but she was getting afraid to eat and I told her to may take a day off - was this a bad thing to do? Girl was having constant back pains and muscle soreness as well. Headaches/migraines…should I wait longer. I did see 4-6 weeks of Gluten consumption prior to testing… kind of at a loss now.    Thanks to everyone for whatever advice you can give.   Enjoy your Sunday 😃👋👋
