Has anyone had one confused with the other? I’ve been told for the last 20 years that I have psoriasis, but it’s never gone away and just slowly creeps into larger areas. I asked my doctor if she would run the celiac panel this morning because of fatigue that I can’t shake, mouth sores, numb toes, and some digestive/bathroom issues. The doctor said she w...

Are tics a symptom of Celiacs?
FunShine replied to FunShine's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Yes, I think regardless of the celiac diagnosis we’ll give gluten free a shot following the tests. I was reading that a lot of people with psoriasis and Hashimoto's feel much better without gluten so worth a shot for me to see if it makes a difference. And if she’s not having stomach aches while off gluten, I want her to feel her best! With NCGS is cro... -

Thanks for all the input! I’m going to ask my doctor to test me tomorrow, I feel that there is a decent chance given my history of autoimmune diseases that I could have it. I didn’t know that it could cause some of the random issues that I’ve dealt with, numb toes, sore joints, mouth sores. I read that having Hashimotos, IGAN, psoriasis, and geographic tongu... -

Yes, I’ve been reading the labels on everything and feel pretty confident with what she’s eaten at home. But yes, we have a ton of items with gluten in our kitchen and can imagine that cross contamination would happen constantly. I was thinking about the cross contamination when eating out, is it even possible for people with celiacs to safely eat out? W... -

She’s 7, and terrified of the idea of a blood draw. I’ve had her eat gluten free the last few days and she hasn’t complained of stomach aches yesterday or today. But wow, eating gluten free is a big change for us. On one hand I would love to get an answer for what’s going on for her, but the idea of being gluten free is a bit overwhelming. We pretty ... -

Thanks for the welcome and the response! Is there any downside with having her take a break from eating gluten to see if it makes a difference and then restarting gluten prior to getting the test? I have a feeling it won’t be a quick experience to get her tested (and she’s terrified of the doctor) and if it’s possible removing gluten would help I can’t... -
My young daughter recently started complaining about stomach aches on a fairly regular basis, I took her to her doctor and was told to have her eat more fruits and veggies. My mom never got tested, but also had severe stomach aches and eventually went gluten free and says she feels much better. Along with the stomach aches my daughter recently started a...
