Diabetes 1 and Celiacía

Hello,

From my diagnosis, I am becoming quite good to search Google things related to diabetes.

I was struck by several studies mentioned on the web that link type 1 diabetes (DT1) and celiachism, and that people with DT1 should carry out celiacía studies, since we are more likely to have it too ...

Is it that this disease predisposes absolutely to everything bad?

Have you performed controls about it?

Does anyone have celiachism too?

Greetings.

Hello!!!!My son debuted with 3 years and effectively they test the Celiaquia once a year ... for now he has always given negative. But it is true that there are more development possibilities to develop Celiaquia when you have diabetes.

They make me tirodes controls, but no Celiacía, if they tell you that you can develop it since it is a type of disease similar to diabetes in what refers to that of the immune system, or something like that.

Look, do not worry because you start reading everything that can cause diabetes you die, if it must be celiac it will be, and if not, then better.
At the moment it only has diabetes, do not give you more bad, live the day and control the diabetes that for now is the only thing you have.

I am diabetics for 24 years and last year debut as celiac the endocrine told me that I was surely associated, I carry it well I only complain about how expensive the products are for celiacs.

Hello!!There is a strong genetic predisposition, it is true that there is a narrow relationship between DM1 and celiachy, I have DM1 and take insulin bomb and my daughter is celiac.

Hi @anitaz, I did the tests this year since I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism (also closely related to diabetes) and they told me that he could come from a celiachy.Fortunately, I have read several articles in which they recommend wearing a gluten -free diet if you are diabetic.I personally was a long season without eating barely gluten and my knives improved and lost a lotpassed.
All the best!

Hi Nigiri, gluten can not be removed from the diet so, if there is suspicion that can be celiquía, this can delay the diagnosis.It is best to go to our endocrine and value both symptoms and tests.
BSS!

Yesterday they gave us the results of my son's analysis and the autoantibodes of transglutaminase iga in 7.61 came out.He says they are negative, but what is that presence of autoantibodies?Could it be to develop Celiaquia?Does anyone know anything about this topic?

@Dalu.Diabetic children must be made every year the antibody test for celiac.That is what medical protocols say.But I imagine that they will do a genetic test to see if it tested positive for DQ2, DQ8, DQHALF and others.
Because if genetic markers do not come positive, Celiaquia will never develop.

@Solaria The genetic tests you talk to me have not been made.In his analysis he says that the limit of the antibodies is 18, as I have read online, the screening is usually in 10. He is negative but that value does not convince me at all.His brother, who has no diabetes recently made those controls for stomach discomfort and left 2.70.Perhaps his brother would not have been made, they would not alarmed me so much his 7.61.Wow these boys, always worrying the parents.: p

@Dalu, if you are beneficiant from the Spanish health system you can ask the pediatrician to send the genetic tests of Celiaquia.If they leave negative, it makes sense to make antibodies every year, because with negative genetic markers it will never develop the disease.
Now, if positive markers, that does not mean that the celiac is going to develop, but you have to do antibodies every year.
If so, the doctor must send genetic tests to the whole family, parents and brothers.Dixit medical protocols.

Well, I will ask about those exams that you tell me, to see if they will leave me more calm, because really, that 7.61 has not left me quiet.

@Dalu, this of genetic tests I do not know how it goes in social security times.If you are very anxious, you can do it for the private one.The best laboratory for this is Genyca.It costs less than 200 euros.They send kit to your house, you take genetic material to mouth with a baston and then forward it.If you decide for the private, do it in Genyca and not another.

Hello, I am a diabetic for 34 A and I am hypothyroid but Celiaca no.I have 2 daughters and the 2 have the positive DQ2 and the little girl is celiac I geneticnete has come out negative so I am impossible that it is.Dt 1 I really don't know what it is.

Well, nothing, that the protocol is to continue with the routine controls of transglutaminase antibodies so we will continue to do it every year.They have told us that at 7.61 it does not give more spin, that it is negative and because it has something high nothing happens, that it has nothing to do with that or not to develop the Celiaquia later.What do you think?The truth is that I am calmer, spend a little worried days

Do not worry, which are only positive if they pass the limit., It is normal to have them to that limit.

I have left the antitransglingaminase antibodies in 15.85, the reference value of the laboratory is from 0 to 18, and my doctor has told me that in most of the sites it is up to 10, that the endocrine sees me and I will tell me thatdo.I fall ahira la Celiaquia.You who think with that value?

@Dalu, I don't know anything about values.Last year they published a new consensus on Celiaquia.What if I know is that the vast majority of adults are negative antibodies.If you overwhelm you a lot you can test the haplotypes in Genyca laboratory.And better if the whole family is done, they give discount by large family.

It seems that he was advertising to laboratory, but in truth they are the best.The test is worth less than 200 euros.Forgive to insist, but I remember how bad I had to have the diagnosis and how I changed my life once I started the gluten -free diet.
Of course, a positive in DQ2/8 does not mean that it will develop Celiaquia.But if the test is negative, you can never develop the disease.
Remember;
-If someone in his family has a "positive genetics", in our health center they are obliged to test the whole family.
- A gluten -free diet does not help improve glycemia.
- If thyroid antibodies lower.
- Gluten -free diet means generic foods, which we find in the market.
- Remember that doctors have told us a thousand times not to consume products "suitable for diabetics" because here the same, only very sporadically consume products (pastry type), these products are a more fat and sugar bomb.Bad

I will try that my endocrine send them to them, tomorrow I go with him.I have none symptoms, but it seems that Celiaquia can appear automatically.I carry a grace in the family with the diseases that there are times that despair can.And I usually an animated uncle
