The Doctor Gluten Project

There are lots of things to look out for in Coeliac Disease.  It is your responsibility to stay healthy.  Be strict about your gluten free diet.

• Your coeliac disease needs long term management
• Be sure of your diagnosis
• Get your blood tests checked again in a few years
• You may need a second endoscopy if you are not recovering
• Children need ongoing help and support
• Other food intolerances (dairy?)

Watch out for and test for:

• Osteoporosis

• Iron deficiency

• Other vitamin deficiencies.

• Your overall nutrition needs watching

• Bacteria overgrowth of the intestine

• Bowel cancer surveillance if you are a late diagnosis

• Lactose intolerance
