I tried gluten free ( sister is a celiac) and was not seeing as much of a difference as I thought... So I tried not eating meat in addition to gluten free (meat makes my mom sick).... Still no difference! Started taking probiotics and saw an extreme difference... For three weeks and then back to my dogestive problems. I don't know what to do.

If you are giving the gluten-free diet a try, I would recommend doing it for at least 3 months. My first couple of weeks gluten-free caused me to feel worse; I think it was a withdrawl. It takes a lot of time for some symptoms to resolve but if you tried it for a few months, and there was no improvement, then you are probably not gluten intolerant.

I don't know much about cutting out meat, but there are some very knowledgeable people on the topic of probiotics and assisting intestinal health. Give it time and I'm sure someone will give you lots of info. :)

I have been gluten free for two months already. Just FYI. Thanks for the response!

      Weak positive anti-ttg igA?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Be sure to keep eating gluten daily until all testing is completed.  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Finding out I’m coeliac whilst pregnant

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      You can always to the gluten challenge later, after your pregnancy, should you need a formal diagnosis. I think it's best to play it safe in this case.

      Very true. I also suffered from candidiasis which had affected my intestines and toes. I think this might have triggered my gluten intolerance/celiac.

      Welcome to the forum community, @Jesmar! The HLA DQ2 and DQ8 genes were the original halotypes identified with the potential to develop celiac disease. Since then, other genes have been discovered that apparently afford a predisposition to celiac disease. As is always the case, these new discoveries are not yet common knowledge and not yet widely dispersed in the medical community. It is not genetically as black and white as we once thought.
