Side Flank Pain

I have been gluten-free for 3 months, after celiac was diagnosed via biopsy. It took 3 weeks of the diet for the gut wrenching pain in my stomach to go away. I got my energy back, but I still have this dull side/flank pain near where my kidneys are. I thought it was all related to celiac, b/c that was where the pain started before the stomach pain came on (a year ago). I have had numerous tests for kidney/bladder infections, but they always show normal. Ultrasounds and MRIs showed normal kidneys (during all the testing in the past year). Is it normal for celiacs to have this sort of side flank pain, or is this something else?

I don't know if this is normal but I have the same thing happening to me. I have been gluten free since February 28th 2007 and I am still having the "flank pain". It flares up about once a week and I have been very worried that something is wrong with my kidney on my right side. I am very happy to hear that someone else gets the same pain. I am trying to figure out if another food allergy/sensitivity is causing the pain. Keep me up to date on what you find out.

Thanks

      Endoscopy

      By Soleihey · Posted

      My TTG was 167 one year ago. Recently had it retested one month ago and it went down to 16. I only recently had an endoscopy done as I was pregnant within the last year. I did not eat gluten prior to this endoscopy as I get very sick. Prior to obtaining the biopsies, the endoscopy said “ diffuse moderately erythematous mucosa to the second part of the duodenum without bleeding.” However, the biopsy came back negative. I assume it’s a false negative as I have also had genetic testing to confirm celiac. However, what would cause the inflammation to the second part of the duodenum and continued positive blood markers if the intestines have healed?

      Thank you for direction.  Eating out is a concern though we rarely do, but I'm prepared now.

      Celiac or not?

      Thank you for the update.  So interesting to know how things are changing, when I was diagnosed I had very similar blood results but still had to have the endoscopy.  Glad you know where you stand.  As your father has celiac disease you probably already know a lot about it, but do contact us if we can help further.

      But isn't it easier to just take a D3 supplement? Is the D light somehow a superior source? Links?
