Julie I had one child and tried 6 years for a second one. I even tried IVF. It didnt work. During the 6 years of trying i continued to miscarry. Eventually I gave up and by some miracle I fell pregnant with my little boy. I was diagnosed with celiacs 6 months ago. I wish someone they had diagnosed me earlier, I would have changed my diet and had more children. My Daughter is 11 and my boy is 5. He also has been diagnosed with celiacs. Good luck….

I have celiac disease and have recently been getting a burning sensation on my scalp along with small red bumps wich then turn into pimlp like blisters which are quite painful alomost like bruises, but are not itchy, but scalp can be itchy on occasion, i am wondering if this could be Dermatitis Herpetiformis, my scalp is often red as well as my face, and seems to flare up a few days after i have eaten out. i also have type 1 diabetes and overactive thyroid which i am on medication for, i am realy worried about this as my hair is falling out and realy need some answers.

Ask your Dr. for a copy of your test results–my son and daughter were both just tested, and told they were negative, when in fact the dr.misread the tests–and this was 2 different dr’s..

Hi Sasha,

Sorry to hear about your situation. Have you spoken with a doctor about your situation? I don’t know many Celiacs who vomit after eating wheat (the problems are usually on the other end) so you may want to consult your physician and get an official diagnosis before attempting a gluten-free diet. The gluten-free diet is somewhat unhealthy for someone who doesn’t have a gluten intolerance of any sort, so you’ll want to confirm with your doctor fist.

Good luck and I hope all goes well with your preganancy!!

Hi everyone,

I’m 37 weeks pregnant and looks like i might have CD. Throughout the pregnancy i’ve been sick, vomiting, jont pain, bloated stomach ect which i just thought was apart of being pregnant until i stared to vomit everything i ate with wheat in it.
I’m very concerned about having a new baby and changing my diet for my new family. We are on a tight budget as it is, and i’m not sure where i will find the time to cook meals.
Any advise would be great as I’m nervous about becoming a new mother and now having CD.

Thanks sasha

Yes – overactive bladder can indicate issues with gluten, though it’s not necessarily indicative of the confition of celiac or gluten intolerance. Certainly, I agree with Allyson’s comment that you should be tested for celiac disease. If you are gluten-free during the tests you can not get accurate results. If your test results are inconclusive – and sadly they often are – then you might consider going strictly off gluten to see what happens.
