Celiac.com 03/28/2026 - Celiac disease is an immune condition triggered by gluten that damages the lining of the small intestine. In children, it can present with digestive symptoms such as diarrhea or poor weight gain, but it can also... -
Yes, there are some people with celiac disease who definitely react to non-gluten items, which doesn't mean they contain gluten, just that @Celiac Lynn has an additional food intolerance.

Yes! Chime in if you still can!

My father also had Type 1 diabetes, plus a genetic marker passed to me for celiac disease. I agree, this is very interesting.

You’re partly right—non-celiac gluten sensitivity is generally considered independent of HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8, meaning people can have it without carrying those genes. However, some individuals with non-celiac gluten sensitivity do still have one or both of those genes, so there’s some overlap. The key difference is that, unlike celiac disease, those genes...

This was an oversight, which we updated, thank you!

Is it celiac?
Scott Adams replied to Lintol's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Very good point! Total IGA should always be part of a blood test for celiac disease. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because... -
You’re definitely connecting some real dots here, and your thinking isn’t off base—but it’s important to separate what’s established from what’s still theoretical. There is good evidence that HIF-1α and hypoxia-related pathways are involved in inflammation and are elevated in celiac disease tissue . And separately, thiamine deficiency can push cells t...

Is Thiamine Deficiency the Beginning of Celiac Disease?

A gluten challenge can be incredibly hard, especially when you’ve already experienced how much better you feel without gluten. It’s not just discomfort—it can affect your mood, energy, and ability to think clearly, so it makes sense that you’re questioning whether it’s worth continuing. The genetic test piece is important to clarify, because that’s wh...

What you’re describing actually comes up more often than people think, and you’re not alone in being in that “not a slam dunk, but not nothing either” category. Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes can be an early or mild sign of celiac disease, but they’re not specific to it—other things like infections, medications, or even non-celiac gluten sensitivity... -
Celiac.com 03/23/2026 - Sriracha sauce can be gluten-free, but it is not automatically safe in every bottle, every brand, or every restaurant. Some sriracha products are made with ingredients that do not contain gluten, while others may... -
It looks like the product is naturally gluten-free, as none of these are derived from wheat, barley, or rye.

This looks like a healthy meal!

So you've made many posts here on your personal quest to get an official diagnosis. Many here have made suggestions, but clearly we can't solve the problem for you. If you can't get the original medical records of your diagnosis, then you may need to do a gluten challenge and get re-tested, and you don't want to do that, perhaps it's time to let the issue...

There’s a lot of misinformation around “European bread being safe.” For people with celiac disease, gluten is gluten—whether it’s in the U.S. or Europe, and traditional wheat bread in France or Italy is not safe. Some people feel better temporarily due to differences in wheat varieties or fermentation methods, but it still triggers the same immune response ...

Were you diagnosed with celiac disease? It sounds like you’re doing a lot of the right things, but worsening fatigue and ongoing symptoms after four months gluten-free isn’t something to ignore. A few possibilities to consider: accidental gluten exposure (very common, especially from cross-contact), nutritional imbalances despite supplements (iron, B12, ...

That sounds incredibly frustrating, and you’re right to take it seriously—especially since for someone with celiac disease, “gluten-free” has to mean truly free from cross-contact, not just menu labeling. Facilities that claim they can accommodate medical dietary needs but fail to do so may be misrepresenting their services, and in some cases this can rai...

You are definitely lucky, as we see many posts in this site's forum where various friends and family members are far less supportive, and sometimes even outright hostile when it comes to their handling of the issue.
