Kidneys

[kingfisher3]

Had results of last blood test doctor said my kidneys hadn’t change that I have only slight Ckd stage 3 but sending me to have biopsy with camera down mouth as he said it showed might have Celiac disease what has this to do with kidneys

Celiac disease isn't related but if you do have it, it's important to remove gluten from your diet as can cause health complications if not treated. Have you mentioned stomach pains/upset, bloating, tiredness, feeling sick to your doctor?

I have ckd stage 5 and multiple food allergies including being a celiac. My doctors believe I developed these added things because I had ckd untreated from birth and caused stressed on my body. I was diagnosed at 20, 19 years ago.

Stay strong your doctors are trying to help. The procedure is painless, I had it done with just throat numbing spray, but you can be knocked out if you don't think you can swallow the tube.

Good luck

Hi Kingfisher,

Celiac disease is another auto-immune disease. And from what I found, there can be a correlation between celiac disease and kidney disease. Let us know what you find out. The information might help someone else.
