Don't know if this is another Celiac symptom. My eyes are swelling shut.

I will look good going to my step-daughters wedding on Saturday with my eyes swelled shut.

Hugs

It could be you are eating something that causes an allergic reaction, or it could be an infection in your eyes. Not everything is celiac related. I work for an optmetrist and we see things like this all the time...so far I have only met a few celiac's in my office. call for an appointment with your eye doctor, tell him/her your eyes are swelling shut, they should get you right in. A word of advice, go to the eye doctor first, not your PCP, optomitrist are much better at diagnosing eye problems.

Good luck!

My first thought is that it's something you are getting on your face, like soap, shampoo, or a skin care product, etc.

      Toddler Diagnosis?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your son has two positive blood tests for celiac disease, plus a positive biopsy for it...why hasn't your doctor diagnosed him with celiac disease, which is the most likely diagnosis based on the test results you shared? The next step should be a gluten-free diet, which your doctor already recommended.

      I am glad to hear you are not taking acid blocking meds as they increase gut PH which inhibits mineral absorption which, in turn, often causes the body to rob it's own bones of the calcium it needs for various metabolic processes. I was asking about that because acid reflux is very common in the celiac community.

      I am not taking anything except for the multivitamins that I purchased from the supermarket.

      This is what my Cardiologist prescribed for my weight.  My husband is prescribed 10,000 units.  When I say prescribed I do not mean a prescription is needed, just that the 2 respective dosages are what he ordered according to our size/weight.  My cardiologist is accepted as one of Houston's leading cardiologists.
