Can gluten cause dizziness in celiacs?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe unrelated...: Celiac disease (cd) is an immune-mediated enteropathy that inflames & destroys the lining of the small intestine--triggered in genetically-determined persons by dietary exposure to gluten (protein in wheat, barley, rye). Lots of immunologic & inflammatory symptoms can result. However, dizziness in a 56 year old lady can be serious, unrelated to cd, & deserves cardiovascular & neurologic work-up.
