Under active thyroid, HLA B27 and Coeliac

10 years ago I was diagnosed with and under active thyroid and 7 years ago diagnosed positive with HLA B27. I have spent years having diarrhoea and constipation with cronic stomach cramps and uveitis. 

More recently I'm suffering with extreme fatigue, low mood, muscle weakness and aches, pain in my knees and hips and back is bad although this has been ongoing for about 20 years. I've recently been tested for chrons which came back negative which is amazing and now waiting for the coeliac bloods to come back. 

I'm reading a lot about if you have an under active  thyroid then you are more lively to have coeliac.

I am finding everyday life really hard and the fatigue is literally killing me. 

Does anyone have any experience around this? Advice would be great. 

Thanks

    Hi 

    I’ve had under active thyroid for about 28 years.   Celiacs for about 1.5 years.   The stomach issues started about 2 years ago with diarrhea and bloating ,   I also had a weird pain on lower left side.  I was also very tired .  Since gluten free stomach issues have improved but I’m still tired .
