I have an appointment with a hemotologist on 3/28/23 to find out what you are wondering about,celiac disease.I got mine in february 2020 from covid 19 when it was unheard of in the U.S..I got the delta variant one year later.I found out I could eat fried rice and tacos and lived off that diet for a couple of years and then deducted I had a peptic ulcer from xpili bacteria.My NP gave me flagyl which cured the bacterial attack but I am still anemic from lack of iron and hemoglobin count.My legs are also swelling.Took kaflex and it worked but she switched to clandomycin...bad move..

I have seen two hematologists, both very good with evaluating and treating the ET, but have little to say about the role celiac may play into this. I’m seeing a nutritionist in two weeks to come at it from that angle. I have switched to a gluten free diet and that has made me feel better. I also have the jak2 mutation, but otherwise I’m asymptomatic.
