I apologize for not remembering but how long were you gluten-free? If it was for a while, 11 days of eating gluten isn't nearly enough for an accurate biopsy. If it wasn't for very long you're probably OK.

Richard, I was gluten-free for approximately 5-6days. (But boy was that a blissful 5-6days!!) Nothing I think to damage my chances of a good biopsy. And to be honest, I know I wasn't 100% gluten-free in those 5 days because of not realizing just how much gluten is in everything! :) Thanks though... I certainly hope I get "clean" results. :D

5-6 days won't hurt the results.

Thanks guys!

Richard, thanks for the confirmation. I don't know what I'd do if they said "Ooh you gotta keep eating gluten for another month or two just to be sure." I think I'd go nuts. Even if its not my issue, in my head, those few days were great, so... I'd love to go gluten-free. In addition, my boyfriend keeps trying to take me gluten-free. He runs around telling me I can't eat this or that because there is gluten in it! What help! Except, I have to eat gluten, so I told ihm I'm going to have what I can while I can have it! ha ha!

Oh well good intentions, thats what they are! Not to mention, I think everyone is sick of my stomach issues and doctor appointments too!

I'll be sure to let youa ll know what becomes of this Wed. appt. Thanks for all the info!!

Dana ;)

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By Aussienae · Posted

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By ButWhatCanIEat · Posted

      Good morning,   I got an email about replies to this post. Some of my doctors had blamed a slipped disc for the pain I had and that contributes, but after meeting with a gastroenterologist AGAIN and trying some lifestyle modifications, I found out I have IBS and can't tolerate corn or excessive fructose to any degree. Cutting out corn AFTER having cut out all gluten containing products was a real pain but I feel much better now!

      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.
