Headaches and celiac disease

3 replies

Wibbli · 09/09/2022 19:05

My DD (7) was diagnosed with celiac disease at the start of the year. She had a bad bug in Feb 2021 which led to headaches, heartburn and sickness before being diagnosed as celiac in April this year.

She hadn’t had any headaches (or very, very rarely) since October 2021 and then in First week of August she had covid and had an awful headache. That was her only symptom.

on 30th August, 4th sept and 9th sept she said she had a pain in her head (first two were above right eyebrow and one today was left temple).

I’m slightly concerned because shes suddenly had quite a few headaches (nothing else associated with them like nausea or sickness) but is this normal, especially with celiac disease? She hasn’t had any gluten as we are very careful with her food, but I suffer with anxiety and it makes me worried it could be tumour related in her head.

Does anyone have any advice please?

Don't forget there has a been a lot of humidity and thunderstorms.
I have been very headachey over the past week or so despite not usually having migraines for years

@imayhavelostmymarbles thank you. DD also said she hasn’t drunk much today (1/2 a bottle of water at school instead of the usual 1-2 bottles she has usually) but had a small bottle of milk and 2 glasses of water at home.
