GERD following Celiac diagnosis

[Guest guest]

I was wondering if anyone here developed GERD/acid reflux AFTER going

gluten-free? I've been on the diet for 6 months following a May diagnosis, and

in the last two weeks I've developed low-grade, constant heartburn. Obviously I

plan to see my doctor, but I was just curious if this was a " CD thing. "

About 50% of people with CD have no CD symptoms at the time of diagnosis. For many of us, they develop later, sometimes intensely.

I have heard of a few people who have had this happen. Apparently

it can be a symptom of CD, but I have known people to suffer from it after

diagnosis when they didn’t have it before. I don’t know much

about it other than that.
