Hi - I was actually just on the glutenfreeguerillas site and saw a post by you then came across to this one and saw your post! However I don't have both RA and celiac...I have RA and lupus, and my son was recently diagnosed with celiac, so have posted on that site too (as well as the lupus one!).

I take mtx and hydroxy for my RA though...

Hi, I was tested for gluten sensitivity after developing Sjogrens on top of RA. I think its a gliadin test. It was negative, but there must be a connection.

I have found that avoiding gluten makes me feel better.

It seems a lot of the autoimmune diseases are related.

I take Sulfasalazine and Hydroxychloroquil. And MTX recently, but not just now.
