Hello Everyone,

My name is Holly. I just found out very recently that I do have Celiac Disease. If anyone has any suggestions about getting started on the new diet, I would appreciate it if you could try to get back to me. I had no symptoms, but I am kind of on the short side. My doctor thought it was strange because both of my parents are tall. Anyways, if anybody could get back to me, I'll appreciate it again.

Thanks,

Holly :)

How old are you? I am 13, I don't really know much about starting the diet because I was diagnosed before I was 2 so I don't really remember what i went through because well I don't know what it was like. My name is Molly and if you have any questions you can e-mail me, my e-mail is flagbabyds@aol.com and i use that for IM as well ;)

I am 13, and I started out by following my diet as best as I could and it seemed really easy at first. But for me it just got harder for the first year. And when I was diginosed my parents thought that it was best for me not to know that if I cheated too much I would get cancer. I was at really high risk then and I have changed. I was diginosed when I was 10 and I was just starting fifth grade and it was very hard to go into the school year knowing that you are different than everybody else and have people wonder what is wrong with that girl. I have a lot of topics started that gets into a lot of stuff like that. But I think that the diet is just a new life style and really easy to adapt to physcally but it was really hard for me mentally. :( So good luck and I hope I was helpful to you.

      Isolated DPG-Iga

      By trents · Posted

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.

      Lymph nodes

      By Soleihey · Posted

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.

      Hmm interesting I just assumed that any “IGA” tests including the DPG iga would be negative in a person who is IGA deficient but maybe that is not the case for the DPG test.

      If you were just diagnosed I can say that if you go 100% gluten-free should should see dramatic improvement of your symptoms over the next few months, but the hard part is to stay gluten-free. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
