It’s Coeliac_UK awareness month. 1 in 100 people have coeliac disease, only 36% are diagnosed. Let’s improve awareness of the various possible presentations of undiagnosed coeliac disease and improve diagnosis rates #coeliac #coeliacdisease #glutenfree #nhft #nhs

To diagnose #coeliac disease gluten needs to be consumed in at least one meal a day for 6 weeks prior to a blood test. If TtG is > 10 x normal range, the patient is aged < 55 years, with no concerns of another diagnosis, then a biopsy may not be needed #CoeliacAwarenessWeek

Always advise a patient that they need to be investigated for coeliac disease before advising anyone to ā€˜just try avoiding gluten’ It’s very difficult to encourage someone to rechallenge #gluten back in to the diet once symptoms have improved. #coeliac #nhftdietetics #gluten

The symptoms of #irritablebowel can be very similar to undiagnosed coeliac disease. #NICE guidelines recommend screening #ibs patients for #coeliacdisease. 30% of coeliac patients are misdiagnosed with IBS prior to diagnosis. Gluten must be consumed for 6 wks before testing #nhft

#Chronic #fatigue is common in undiagnosed #coeliac disease and may be the only symptom. This is due to poor absorption of the nutrients essential for energy metabolism, particularly iron, folate & Vit B12. #NICE guidelines recommend screening patients with prolonged fatigue

NICE guidelines recommend people with #autoimmune #thyroid disease should be screened for #coeliac disease at diagnosis. If you have been diagnosed with #hashimotos thyroiditis or #graves disease, then ask your GP for a coeliac test. #coeliacawareness #autoimmune #nhftdietetics

Glad to share this article my colleague Jess and I wrote for British Dietetic Association to highlight the great work we are doing at Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS FT to improve allergen awareness and offer safer meals to coeliac disease inpatients. Some great tips ā¬‡ļø #CoeliacAwarnessMonth bda.uk.com/resource/hospi…
