Dizziness

Just wondering if anyone has experienced true spinning veritgo in relationship to Celiacs disease?

I was sick this weekend my stomach had been bothering me for a week. I felt vertigo was coming from my stomach. I have only been eating a little of this and that for now. I looked up gastric vertigo but it got into ulcers and cancer nothing about celiacs disease. Anyway just trying to figure this one out.

Well, I can't say the whole room spun or anything, but I was finding it somewhat difficult to maintain good balance before taking a sublingual methylcobalamin (vitamin B12).

That aside, I had rooms spinning, beds flipping, and all that stuff from intestinal yeast overgrowth (it was likely candida). For that, staying off all yeasts and sugars did wonders, as did the caprylic acid I took for the first month or two.

Hope you get the answers you need soon!

Oh my YES! In fact, it was a very scary bout with vertigo that made me finally starting looking into the possibility of a connection with celiac disease. I have no proof the two were connected, but when this happened I had eaten a ton of gluten foods the day before it happened, and it came on suddenly, and it hasn't happened since (that was 16 months ago) , so I have my suspicions! :P

I used to get vertigo a lot. SInce going gluten-free, it has just about disappeared. I'm currently treating myself for Candida, and I'm having a pretty intense die off period. Last night before bed I had vertigo for the first time in a while. It kind of feels like the back of my head vibrates and then the room spins. I also get it before bad migraines. Emerging research suggests that Candida can cause celiac disease, which is what I believe happened to me. So I know that for myself, the cause of the vertigo has to be either celiac disease or Candida. But since Candida is so prevalent with celiac disease, it's hard to truly distinguish between the two when it comes to symptoms.

Thanks everyone for your replies. I was doing better eating just a little and then today ate more normal and back to getting the spins. It seems to happen though at the computer when my chair swivels. I have inner ear problems anyway so maybe thats it. Just seems like I have alot of throwing up and D. I also have perinious anemia so maybe that is involved also. Your thoughts are greatly appreciated.

      PS -  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS. You mentioned that your bowel movements may be a bit more regular, so this could be another indication of NCGS.

      You did not mention your age, but depending on how old you are it makes a big difference on how important it is to get a flu vaccine.

      Your situation is not straightforward, so it’s understandable why you’re seeking clarity. Your elevated thyroid peroxidase antibodies (TPOs) and thyroglobulin levels suggest autoimmune thyroid involvement, possibly Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, even though your thyroid function currently appears normal. The link between autoimmune thyroid disease and celiac disease is well-documented, but your celiac panel results are inconclusive, with only the deamidated gliadin IgA elevated. As you doctor correctly mentioned, this could indicate non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) rather than celiac disease, especially since you lack classic GI symptoms. However, the absence of improvement after four months gluten-free is notable. While some non-GI symptoms like fatigue and brain fog can take longer to resolve, the lack of progress raises questions about whether gluten is the primary driver of your symptoms. It might be worth revisiting the possibility of a biopsy (after a gluten challenge) to rule out celiac definitively, or exploring other potential contributors, such as nutrient deficiencies, other autoimmune conditions, or even dysautonomia, given your temperature regulation and energy issues. Have you had your thyroid levels retested since going gluten-free? If not, I would do that before resuming a regular gluten diet. It would be interesting to see if there has been any normalization in those levels while on a gluten-free diet.

      Yes no gluten in my diet. I get so sick that I have to go to the ER for fluids and medicine. I was diagnosed in 2017 but was told I probably have had it my whole life. (Went to Mayo in 2019 to confirm diagnoses and address all other autommune issues ect.) Also intolerance to sugar alcohols and chicory root. Try to eat clean and stay away from processes foods.

      Dawn, are you diligent with the gluten free diet? When were you diagnosed with celiac disease?
