I have Ulcerative Colitis. I was diagnosed May, 2014. Six months later I started to have nerve problems. I am going to be tested for AST (small fiber neuropathy) next month. My nerve issue is definitely tied to UC.

A gut issue being the cause of my SFN is one of my top four likely candidates. I seem to toggle back and forth on the most likely candidate based on the day of the week.
All I know with the gut aspect of things is that I haven't been right since I tore up my digestive tract with iron supplements in August of 2013. My full blown SFN symptoms set in 3 months later. |

UC is a AUTOIMMune disease of the gut of the colon, just like chron's and celiacs, and those have known association(or triggers) for other autoimmune diseases.

--is a rather older panel, especially with the anti-endomyesial assay.
Most of the newer ones also test for deamindated anti-gliadin IgG and IgA (somewhat less specific for villious damage or frank celaic, but more sensitive for gluten sensitivity--the anti-gliadin IgG is often the first to turn positive in people with gluten issues). |
