From: Gluten Allergy

I just recently found out that I'm allergic to gluten and wheat. I'm just wondering what other testing I need to have done? I got the blood test done for celiac and it came back negative. I heard that the only way to really tell is if you get a biopsy of the small intestines. My homeopathic doctor doesnt think I have it but I dont know what to do. She wants me to get done this testing called (Company Name Removed - They Spammed This Forum and are Banned) Testing. It checks for food intolerances but I heard it was a scam? Insurance does not cover it and it is pretty expensive.

Also I am really hoping to get a response because this is my very first post (:

      Hookworms and ChatGPT5

      I asked a logical follow-up question to ChatGTP5: Can you estimate what percentage of celiac hookworm hosts like myself achieve full remission from the disease? ChatGPT said: Great question, Pete. Let’s be very clear here: There isn’t a single hard number published for “what percentage of celiacs with hookworms achieve full remission,” but...

      Hookwormed status report

      I should add that hookworms aren't a cure for celiac disease. Some people, and I couldn't tell you how many, stop evincing the symptoms of celiac disease while their hookworm colonies are healthy. Others have a reduction in the severity of their reactions to gluten, but should still stay well away from it. And other people don't seem to be helped much at...

      Hookwormed status report

      I was lucky (!) in that I would very quickly get sick after ingestion with something contaminated with gluten so it was easy to figure out the offender. I also had a very restricted diet and only ever introduced one new food item per day for this very reason. One memory that sticks out was pistachios. They put flour in the bag to stop the nuts sticking...
