Celiac Disease In The News

I was dismayed by Ms Edwards negative attitude toward celiac disease. I mean, I'd hardly call it a "death sentence." I also thought she made several misrepresentations about how difficult shopping is, etc. If she's hoping to build her business with this kind of "publicity" I think she'll be disappointed. I actually emailed her and expressed my concern about some of her comments.

Both of my kids were introduced wheat/gluten at the proper time to be in that window. Both of my kids are now on a gluten free diet for life.

Yes...here are two more articles--sorry, but the past two or three days, almost all of the articles have been similar--on the wheat introduction thing:

So, I just found out that my parents fed me cereal at 2 1/2 weeks!!!! That explains a lot. I told my Mom I was protesting and that I thought she should have to follow my diet since she might have been the cause of it. ha!

I am posting this in both the Celiac Disease in the News thread and the Celiac in Toronto News Today thread because it pertains to communion, but it's also celiac disease in the news...deserves to be in both:

Article entitled what would Jesus do? ....the question we've all been asking ourselves <_< and that I think we can make a fair assumption about.

Also pasted below since some newspapers knock articles off the internet or make you pay after a few days:

What would Jesus do?

Published in the Asbury Park Press 05/20/05

Holy Communion, a sacrament at the heart of Catholicism, begins as a joyous occasion for second-graders when they join their congregation in receiving the Holy Eucharist at the altar.

But for a little girl from Brielle, that step has been on hold. A year ago, the Diocese of Trenton said her First Holy Communion was not valid because she received a rice-based wafer, rather than a wheat-based host sanctioned by the Church. A medical condition, celiac-sprue disease, prevents her from ingesting wheat-based products

Thanks for posting the Duluth News Tribune article about the gluten-free food store/restaurant in Hayward, Wisconsin. The article has a couple of "gluten-free" errors, but is great otherwise. I've eaten food from there when I've been visiting family in the region and it was good. I hadn't had a pasty in a long time.

There's another article, but it requires you to register at a newspaper and it doesn't sound much different from the others I've posted.

Thanks celiac3270, that's a very interesting article which I missed.

A close reading proves that things aren't as good in the UK as some elsewhere like to say.

With specific regard to coeliac disease notice how many weeks it took to organise a biopsy and how many more weeks it took to get the results.

The latest guidance is that these should happen immediately, but it is scarcely done.

It's commonplace not to get a biopsy at all and no diagnosis either.

The Bradford doctor is exceptionally good compared to most here.

Sure :). A day or two ago I signed up for alerts on "coeliac" as well as "gluten" and "celiac" so that I could also post stuff for those not in North America. I'll try to put something next to those posts, such as UK or Europe or not US or something so they're easier to find:

Oops...this one is for the UK that I got, but it's a job offer, lol, which mentions "coeliac" in it....ugg.

There was one on embryonic stem cell research and celiac disease, but they won't let me access it since it was published yesterday, not today <_<

Awhile ago, I posted about the San Francisco something article... ;) anyway, they have letters to the editor, now...found out about this from the St. Johns List Serv:

Guess what? Celiac referred to as an allergy? There's another topic on that, so maybe I'll provide a link to this one...

      Thank you again for your reply and comments which I have read carefully as I appreciate any input at this stage. I'm tending to listen to what my body wants me to do, having been in agony for many years any respite has been welcome and avoiding all wheat and lactose has thankfully brought this.  When in pain before I was seen by a number of gynacologists as I had 22 fibroids and had an operation 13 years ago to shrink them . However the pain remained and intensified to the point over the years where I began passing out. I was in and out of a&e during covid when waiting rooms where empty. My present diet is the only thing that's given me any hope for the future. As I say I had never heard of celiac disease before starting so I guess had this not come up in a conversation I would just have carried on. It was the swollen lymph node that sent me to a boots pharmacist who immediately sent me to a&e where a Dr asked questions prescribed antibiotics and then back to my GP. I'm now waiting for my hospital appointment . Hope this answers your question. I found out more about the disease because I googled something I wouldn't normally do, it did shed light on the disease but I also read some things that this disease can do. On good days I actually hope I haven't got this but on further investigation my mother's side of the family all Celtic have had various problems 're stomach pain my poor grandmother cried in pain as did her sister whilst two of her brother's survived WW2 but died from ulcers put down to stress of fighting.  Wishing you well with your recovery.  Many thanks

      Welcome to the forum, @Nacina, What supplements is your son taking?
    • knitty kitty
      @BluegrassCeliac, I'm agreeing.  It's a good thing taking magnesium. And B vitamins. Magnesium and Thiamine work together.  If you supplement the B vitamins which include Thiamine, but don't have sufficient magnesium, Thiamine won't work well.  If you take Magnesium, but not Thiamine, magnesium won't work as well by itself. Hydrochlorothiazide HCTZ is a sulfonamide drug, a sulfa drug.  So are proton pump inhibitors PPIs, and SSRIs. High dose Thiamine is used to resolve cytokine storms.  High dose Thiamine was used in patients having cytokine storms in Covid infections.  Magnesium supplementation also improves cytokine storms, and was also used during Covid. How's your Vitamin D?

      Hi,   Not saying Thiamine (B1) couldn't be an issue as well, but Mg was definitely the cause of my problems. It's the only thing that worked. I supplemented with B vitamins, but that didn't change anything, in fact they made me sick. Mg stopped all my muscle pain (HCTZ) within a few months and fixed all the intestinal problems HCTZ caused as well. Mom has an allergy to some sulfa drugs (IgG Celiac too), but I don't think I've ever taken them. Mg boosted my energy as well. It solved a lot of problems. I take 1000mg MgO a day with no problems. I boost absorption with Vitamin D. Some people can't take MgO,  like mom, she takes Mg Glycinate. It's one of those things that someone has try and find the right form for themselves. Everyone's different. Mg deficiency can cause anxiety and is a treatment for it. A pharmacist gave me a list of drugs years ago that cause Mg deficiency: PPIs, H2 bockers, HCTZ, some beta blockers (metoprolol which I've taken -- horrible side effects), some anti-anxiety meds too were on it. I posted because I saw he was an IgG celiac. He's the first one I've seen in 20 years, other than my family. We're rare. All the celiacs I've met are IgA. Finding healthcare is a nightmare. Just trying to help. B

      It sounds like you've been through a lot with your son's health journey, and it's understandable that you're seeking answers and solutions. Given the complexity of his symptoms and medical history, it might be beneficial to explore a few avenues: Encourage your son to keep a detailed journal of his symptoms, including when they occur, their severity, any triggers or patterns, and how they impact his daily life. This information can be valuable during medical consultations and may help identify correlations or trends. Consider seeking opinions from specialized medical centers or academic hospitals that have multidisciplinary teams specializing in gastrointestinal disorders, especially those related to Celiac disease and Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EOE). These centers often have experts who deal with complex cases and can offer a comprehensive evaluation. Since you've already explored alternative medicine with a nutrition response doctor and a gut detox diet, you may want to consider consulting a functional medicine practitioner. They take a holistic approach to health, looking at underlying causes and imbalances that may contribute to symptoms. Given his low vitamin D levels and other nutritional markers, a thorough nutritional assessment by a registered dietitian or nutritionist specializing in gastrointestinal health could provide insights into any deficiencies or dietary adjustments that might help alleviate symptoms. In addition to routine tests, consider asking about more specialized tests that may not be part of standard screenings. These could include comprehensive stool analyses, food intolerance testing, allergy panels, or advanced imaging studies to assess gut health.
