Are there any gluten concerns with any of the tapes?

No problem that I know of. The adhesive on tape is not a wheat glue.

I know sometimes stickers can be a problem. Some are fine though. I wouldn't be overly concerned about the tape though.

I really don't think that your basic peel-off type sticker is ever a problem. The old type sticker that you lick, like a stamp, possibly could be. I wouldn't worry.

I'm not positive but I think envelopes are something to avoid. I usually just use scotch tape to seal the envelopes.

I think people have checked with a number of envelope-making companies and the glue has been gluten-free, nonetheless, I agree that there's no point in licking when you can tape instead or dampen with a sponge, etc.

Envelopes can contain gluten. I just get someone else to do it. The only time I ever really need to lick an envelope is at the bank, but some of the banks around here are getting lick free envelopes for depositing money. So much better B)

      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.

      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.):
