 Celiac and Thyroid Antibodies are High in Type 1 Diabetics

I was not diagnosed with Celiac Disease until I saw an endocrinologist that also diagnosed me with Type 1 Diabetes, instead of Type 2 that I had been previously diagnosed with about 15 years ago. I had lived with classic symptoms of both even as a young child.

I now realize that Celiac is hereditary and I have to wonder if my mother and grandmother did not also suffer from this disease as well. I have encouraged my birth children to get tested as well.
