It is actually not uncommon for symptoms to get worse for a little while after going gluten-free... it is like your body is having withdrawal symptoms! Think of the drug-addict trying to get clean... he will go through some rough times before he can get better!

Stick with it! You should notice some very positive results in a few weeks...

I definitely know when I've eat something my body is reacting to. I have not been formally tested yet but I have simular symptoms as you. One thing for me is I have been batteling severe anemia for about 15 years now. It sucks also want to mention the Diarhhea I have right now is like a yellowish brown with some food particles in it. I know its gross but maybe someone can shed some light.

      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.):

      From the article I linked above: DGP-IgA and DGP-IgG (Deamidated Gliadin Peptide) Blood Tests for Celiac Disease These tests measure the levels of antibodies in the blood, but specifically targets deamidated gliadin peptides, which are a type of gluten protein that can trigger an immune response in people with celiac disease. The test is not always included in adults, but should be in cases with IgA deficiency.  I'm not sure if this is a grammatical error or not but in the context, two tests are being spoken of together so it could be intended to say, "These tests". I'll ask Scott about that.
