Follow-up dashboard
A practical orientation screen for what to monitor after diagnosis.
Follow-up area
Serology and recovery
- Track symptoms together with TTG-IgA or related serology.
- Remember that normal serology does not prove full mucosal healing.
Follow-up area
Micronutrients
- Recheck iron, folate, B12, vitamin D, and calcium as clinically indicated.
- A gluten-free diet improves many deficiencies, but not always completely.
Follow-up area
Bone health
- Use DEXA and bone-risk follow-up where appropriate.
- Bone disease is multifactorial, not just calcium/vitamin D malabsorption.
Follow-up area
Persistent symptoms
- Do not jump straight to refractory disease.
- Reassess gluten exposure, diet quality, and alternative explanations.
Follow-up area
Diet quality
- A strict GFD can still be nutritionally incomplete.
- Low fortification, cost, and processed substitutes matter in long-term care.
Follow-up area
Contamination and oats
- Calibrate contamination risk without drifting into hypervigilance.
- Oats remain a special case: often tolerated if pure, but not always simple.
