Hello,

This is my first time doing this so I hope this is correct. I have a question. My husband was told that he has celiac disease. In all my research I have been unable to find how this will effect our ability to have children. In my research it discuss female complications. I so want to be able to have my husband's children. Please tell me there is hope. Thanks for your time

Thanks You. That has made me feel better. My husband found out 9 years ago that he had celiac disease. We have only been married for a year and a half. I have just learned the seriousness of this disease. My research yesterday left me very overwhelmed. I was so excited when I found this sight. Thanks again.

If he's been gluten-free all that time there definitely shouldn't be a problem. If it turns out there is, I seriously doubt treated celiac disease would be the cause.

Well the truth of the matter is he has not been gluten-free. While we were dating he never really seemed to concerned about. I don't know what to me so long to do the research. We started him on a gluten-free diet this week. What are the chances of us having a problem if he hasn't been on a gluten-free diet. Should I start to be concerned that our chances are slim?

      Gluten Free Daily Vitamins for Kids w/ Celiac

      By Sandi20 · Posted

      Thank you.  Just wanted to see if there was anything out there. Not in need of any specific vitamins or mineral. Trying to cover all my bases. 🙂.    By the way, what is your picture from or what does it represent? Are you an Aquarius?

      They've not made that call at this point. They say it looks more like Celiac's than common variable immune deficiency.  They say to get a positive diagnosis another endoscopy is needed after I've been on gluten-free diet awhile.  So, waiting for more input from Docs'.

      Getting rid of the belly bloat

      By cristiana · Posted

      Karen, welcome to the forum. Another thing to add:  Belly bloat can persist if you are lactose intolerant, a situation caused by coeliac disease or it can simply be a stand alone condition.  In the case of coeliac disease, it could be your damaged gut cannot break down lactose efficiently but, in time, once the gut heals, your lactose intolerance and bloating should improve.  You might also find it helpful to stay clear of certain high fibre foods for a while, perhaps keeping a food diary to see if any are causing you to bloat a lot or give you stomach pain.  Lentils and soya were an issue for me in the short term, while I was recovering.  Also, are you taking iron - that can really hurt your belly and in my case it added to the bloating. The other point I wanted to make is has your doctor looked into any other reasons for your belly bloat.? There are a number of other gastric conditions that can result in a bloated belly.  A blood test and an ultrasound to check for possible gynaecological issues could also be something to speak to your GP about. It took me a few months for my bloating to subside, but the journey which involved a few tests along the way to ensure nothing else was was worth it.   Cristiana
