Hi yes was diagnosed 2 years ago  symptoms have been ongoing for around 6 wks now also have weight loss, follow gluten free diet as much as possible  symptoms are debilitating any ideas greatly appreciated thanks

"follow gluten free diet as much as possible" I think is the key here. Sounds like you are not consistent in eating gluten free. My input is that this needs to change to where you are totally gluten free on a consistent basis. Every lapse is a setback to healing. The goal should not be to eat a low gluten diet but to eat a gluten free diet. You need to get serious about this. https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/the-gluten-free-diet-101-a-beginners-guide-to-going-gluten-free-r1640/

I agree with @trents  You'll have much better results with a no gluten diet. 

Also consider other sources that could possibly be sneaking in that may not be so obvious as eating it. I've had some surprise glutenenings by petting pets that eat gluten (they lick themselves and then you pet them, and then it's on your hands).

The doc that diagnosed me really emphasized that eyes, ears, nose, and throat all lead to the same place, so be aware of possible airborne gluten.  I got really sick feeding my neighbor's chickens (grains in the feed, the chickens kick it up and it's in the air, I breathe it in, nose drains down to stomach...). Also home projects got me, cutting plywood and demo of old plaster board that possibly have wheat in the glues that hold them together. 

It's not easy, but it does get easier.  You'll feel better with staying gluten free.

Gastrointestinal Beriberi symptoms are fatigue, nausea, stomach ache, abdominal pain, and unintended weight loss.  I know from personal experience.  My doctors weren't familiar with gastrointestinal beriberi.   It is caused by a deficiency in Vitamin B 1  Thiamine.   I took over-the-counter Thiamine supplements (Benfotiamine) and felt much better quickly.  Thiamine is water soluble (pee it away if not needed) and nontoxic.  It doesn't hurt to try.  A hot water bottle helps, too.

      Using a pressure cooker will break down Lectins.  Long cooking times as in using a crock pot will also reduce Lectin content.   However, having tried both, going lectin free for a few weeks is like a vacation for my digestive system.  I do hope you give the AIP diet a try.  I understand that changing ones diet takes a lot of mental readjustment which is difficult, but it's really worth the effort for long-term health.

      Depending on which source you research sprouting or fermentation can reduce lectins. I sprout rice, buckwheat and quinoa. However, I admit that gas and intestinal inflammation still plague me after 5 1/2 mo gluten-free. I have been resisting but I may try the aip diet at some point.

      Hi @jadeceoliacuk I am a UK based coeliac and I have used a private nutritionist a few times. She is very highly qualified and having just googled her details, she is listed on this website (see link).  For that reason, I think you could trust the listings here as I am quite sure she would not want to associate with this website unless it was a professional, trustworthy resource. https://www.nutritionist-resource.org.uk/ I hope this helps.

      thank you knitty kitty. I will give those articles a read. Yes he is deficient in Iron and Vit D, that is all they tested for. Do you have any tips for finding a pediatric nutritionalist? He has an NHS dietician who has been helpful sending me generalised info on increasing Iron and cutting out dairy but they won't see him now for another year and I feel like I need more support than that...

      Yes,  Lisinopril gave me an inguinal hernia from the persistant cough. Amlodipine doubled urine output and dry eyes so I could not wear contacts, another had me walking bent over like a ninety year old and one knocked out control of my quadracepts so knees would give out.  None lowered my blood pressure. Average BP  132/67 for Oct 21 - 26.  Lowest was 100/59. High 157/62.
